Pretty easy song. The other version doesn't translate to ukulele well, but these chords should work.
The song is fairly repetitive, so just continue through with the chords.
C Em F G
Eisenhower is the father of the interstate highway system
And my song is just a way to pay a little tribute to him
'cause on that road my true love and I rode from Ohio to Pittsburgh
and our separate cars gave me the time to think of ways to try to kiss him
Our separate hearts beat out of time without someone to find the rhythm
When we hugged goodbye, I thought I felt them simultaneously quicken
C G
I've got a thought in my head
D Am
Would it really be so bad
if the tire exploded
or if the car ran out of gas?
Would if be so so horrible
if we had to miss a few shows
Because the car broke down in the countryside
and we had to spend the night there?
C G
And would it be oh unbearable
D Am
if we misplaced all our clothes
when we swam in the river
and we had to hang out in nothing but our underwear?
And would it be totally terrible
if we got a few hours off track
when we fell asleep in the grass
at the rest stop where I once read that
C Em F G
Eisenhower is the father of our interstate highway system
and so this song is just a way to say "Thank you" to him
'cause on that road my true love and I rode from New York to Toronto
and our separate cars gave me the time to think of ways I could enthrall him
Our separate hearts beat out of time without someone to play the bongos
On our last night, I said "You know exactly how my song goes."
C G
Would you think it was stupid of me
D Am
to suggest we don't get any sleep
even though we're getting up at 6am
to drive all the way to Michigan?
I've got a song in my head
It says it better than I ever could have
I'd love just once to see you
I'd love just once to see you
C G C
I'd love just once to see you in the nude.
