[Verse]

 A                          D
Flew in from Miami Beach B. O. A. C.
 C                       D
Didn't get to bed last night
A                            D
On the way the paper bag was on my knee
 C                      D
Man I had a dreadful flight


[Chorus]

                      A
I'm back in the U.S.S.R.
C                             D
You don't know how lucky you are boy
                  A    D  Eb E
Back in the U.S.S.R.


[Verse]

 A                          D
Been away so long I hardly knew the place
 C                         D
Gee it's good to be back home
  A                          D
Leave it till tomorrow to unpack my case
  C                    D
Honey disconnect the phone

I'm back in the U.S.S.R.
C                             D

[Verse]

            D
Well the Ukraine girls really knock me out
       A
They leave the West behind
       D   D/C#          D/C       D/B
And Moscow girls make me sing and shout
       E                          D             A     D  Eb E

Take me to your daddy's farm
