Tabbed this myself by ear after cracking up at the episode of Raising Hope that I heard
it on. Hilariously fun tune to sing and play. The 'Root, doot, doot, doot, doot, do-doo,
doo' part might not be 100% accurate, but this is the best I've got. Enjoy.

E A E B7 E
Do wacka, do wacka, do wacka, do wacka do

E A E B7 E

A E

Both hands on the wheel and your shoulders reared back
