[C]
[N]
Whoa!
By death, Major, you're going a bit of a bet.
I'll have to get some new brake linings for these [F] hooves.
[Db]
I say, [C] sir, you [F] may be too [Db] hard to find like that.
[C] When I was in the [Fm] army I was a cavalryman, you know.
[C] Whenever I went to parade, a [F] magnificent picture I made.
Through my galloping here and my galloping there, this ridiculous habit I got.
[G] And I'm angry if I don't think [C] I'm galloping [D] now, whether [G] I'm up in [C] the saddle or not.
[Gm] And the people will stare at me so no matter wherever [F] I go.
Bum-ba-dee-bum-ba-dee-bum-ba-dee-bum, this habit will bother me charger.
Bum-ba-dee-bum-ba-dee-bum-ba-dee-bum, this habit will be [Bm] a [F] rager.
[A] All the girls [Bb] [Am] declare [G] that I am a gay [C] old stager.
[F] Hey!
Hey!
Clear the way, here comes the galloping [Cm] Major.
[Db] [C] [F] I always was a lady's man and a favourite with the sex.
[C] Well, I caught up on one yesterday, [F] though I won't give the lady away.
She started the talk of my army career and was quite interested, you see.
[G] But I got rather [C] tired, so we talked about [D] her, which was [G] more [C] interesting to [Gm] me.
And she said, I've been taking some while, for as soon as we sat down to dine,
[F] I went bumpity-bumpity-bumpity-bump, as if I was riding my car, ja.
Bumpity-bumpity-bumpity-bump, as proud as Lindy and Roger.
[A] All the girls [D] declared [Gm] that I'm a [C] capable [Dm] stager.
[F]
Hey, hey, clear the way, here comes the galloping manger.
