[G] [G]
Oh [G] me, oh [D] my, oh [G] you
What [G] ever [D] shall I [G] do
[C] Halle [G]lujah, the [D] question is pe- [G]culiar
I'd [G] give a [D] lot of [G] dough
If [G] only [D] I could [G] know
The [A7] answer to my question, Is it yes or is it [D] no
{soc}
[D]* Does [D]* your [G] chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D] bedpost overnight
[D] If your mother said don't chew it
Do you [G] swallow it in spite
Can you [C] catch it on your [D] tonsils
Can you [G] heave it left and [C] right
Does your [G] chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D] bedpost over [G] night
{eoc}
Here [G] comes a [D] blushing [G] bride
The [G] groom is [D] by her [G] side
[C] Up to the [G] altar, just as [D] steady as Gib-[G]raltar
Ah, the [G] groom has [D] got the [G] ring
And it's [G] such a [D] pretty [G] thing
But [A7] as he slips it on her finger
The choir begins to [D] sing
{soc}
[D]* Does [D]* your [G] chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D] bedpost overnight
[D] If your mother said don't chew it
Do you [G] swallow it in spite
Can you [C] catch it on your [D] tonsils
Can you [G] heave it left and [C] right
Does your [G] chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D] bedpost over [G] night
{eoc}
The [G] convict [D] out on [G] bail
Says [G] put me [D] back in [G] jail
[C] Harrang the [G] knocker, he must be [D] of his [G] rocker
When [G] back in [D] his old [G] cell
The [G] reason [D] he did [G] tell
His [A7] gum was stuck above his bed
And his false teeth [D] as well
{soc}
[D]* Does [D]* your [G] chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D] bedpost overnight
[D] If your mother said don't chew it
Do you [G] swallow it in spite
Can you [C] catch it on your [D] tonsils
Can you [G] heave it left and [C] right
Does your [G] chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D] bedpost over [G] night
{eoc}
On the [A7] bed-post [D] o-ver
[NC] Well Hello there, I love you and the one who holds you tight
[NC] Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Sat'day night
On the [A7] bed-post [D] o-ver
[NC] A dollar is a dollar and a dime is a dime
[NC] He's singin' out the chorus
But he hasn't got the time
On the [A7] bed-post [D] o-ver [G] ni-i-i-ight [G]!
