[C] Shan't forget when I got married to Selena Brown
The [G] way that people laughed at me it [F] made me feel a clown
I began to [G] wonder when their dials began to crack
If [D7] by mistake I'd got my Sunday [G] trousers front to back
[C] I wore my chain on me [F] Darby-[C]kel
The [F] sun was shining on it and [D7] made me look a [G] swell

[C] I went to the city once and I thought I'd have a spree
[G] The Mayor of London he was there that's who I came to see
[C] He dashed up at a canter in a carriage and a pair
I [G] shouted Holler boys and threw my hat up in the air

[G] Made up in my watch and chain I went and drew my pay
[C] Then got out with a lot of other colonels on the loose
I [G] got full right up to here in fourp'ny stagger juice
[C] One of them said we want a pot of ale
[F] Run him to the rag shop and we'll bung him on the scale
