All that it takes is a spark, then something plain as a park [C] becomes [Ebm]
a [Dm] wonderland!

[Dm] it's [B] a jolly holiday with Mary,
[Am] Mary makes your heart so light
When [E] the day is grey and [B] ordinary, [D]
Mary makes the sun shine bright
[F] Our happiness is blooming all around us, [C] the daffodils are smiling at the dove

a [Dm] _ wonderland! _ _ _
_ _ [E] All you have to do is [Am] look anew, [D] then you'll _ understand
[Db] Why [G] _ _ _ _
[Dm] it's [B] a jolly holiday with Mary, _
_ [Am] Mary makes your heart so light _
When [E] the day is grey and [B] ordinary, [D] _
_ Mary makes the sun shine bright
_ [Ab] _
[F] Our happiness is blooming all around us, [C] the daffodils are smiling at the dove
[E] _
[F] When [Gbm] Mary old Durand, [C] you feel so [F] grand, your heart [Gb] starts beating like a big [G] brass band
_ Oh [Am] _ it's a jolly holiday [Em] with Mary, _ no wonder that it's Mary [Gb] that we [C] love
Come along you two!
[E] _
_ _ Boring, [B] just like other [A] nannies, _ thinking parks are good for [Dbm] us
It's just [Db] statues, [C] ducks and grannies, [B] I [F] don't [E] understand all the fuss _
Is she [Bm] doing [A] it to spite us?
We [Gbm] could [A] lose her for a [D] laugh
Perhaps [Ebm] it's all a plot, [E] I'll tell you [G] what, she seems so different but I bet she's not
There [Db] is [Gb] nothing to excite us, [D] who _
_ [E] _ [Db] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ [D] are you?
I'm Nelius, and I thought [Ab] Mary Poppins would never let me get down [G] from the moon
Ain't it a glorious day, rise a-mornin' in May, [C] I [Gb] feel like [Dm] I could [G] fly
Have [E] you ever [B] seen the [Am] grass so [B] green?
[Am] _ [B] Oh [Am] Bert, _ [D] or a [Eb] bluer sky?
_ [Am] _
_ [G] _ [Ebm] [D] Oh it's [G] a jolly [Dm] holiday with [B] Mary, _ [A] fair days I've never known
_ [E] You can ask the [Am] passing statuary, _ _ [D] nothing's ever [Bb] set in stone
[D] _ _ [Fm] You're looking tip-top from top to toe, [Eb] if I may say so
Thank you Bert, and you [Ab] me
_ [D] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] Oh it's a jolly holiday [Gm] with Mary, [Fm]
no [Eb] wonder that it's Mary that we love
[C] _ _
[G] Do you think Nelius is looking a bit timid today?
[C]
[Gm] No, why?
I knew him when he was a little [G] boulder, a little boulder!
To _ see a statue dance like that, you can't believe your eyes
[Abm] You fear you've lost [B] your marbles, though the thinker thinks you're wise
[Abm] So you should hasten, call a [A] mason, tell him what you've seen
[G] If he knows his craft, you'll think you're daft, but we'll know what you [Abm] mean
[C] Oh it's a jolly [Bm] holiday with Mary, [A] no [G] wonder that it's _ [B] _ _ _
_ [G] _ [Ab] _ [Db] Mary that we love
Now [G] Notre Dame can cause [Ab] alarm, and I've me own hunch [A] why
Those gargoyles need [Dbm] a gargle, cos their throats get rather dry
_ [Bb] And between [F] us, I know Venus has a vice [Bbm] that shocks
_ [Db] She often [Ebm] drinks with a sphinx who winks, it's neat [Ab] and on the rocks
[Db] Oh it's a [Cm] jolly holiday with Mary, [Bb]
no wonder that it's [Db] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [C] _ _ [F] _ _ [Cm] Mary that we love
[F] Let's [Cm] go for [F] a jaunty saunter, [Bb]
you are bound to make your [D] mark
Looks [Gm] like all of you were [Dm] born to [Am] take a [C] promenade [F] in the park
[Cm] _ [F] With [Cm] those [Bb] finely [Dm] chiselled features, you can look [Fm] down from above
[Eb] Each man out with his dog [F] will stand [G] a gog, [Eb] to see a [C] statue take a [F] gentle [Cm] jog
[F] It's no [D]
wonder [G] that it's [Cm] Mary that [F] we [N]
love
_ _ _ _ [G] It's _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ [F] Mary that we love
It's a jolly [Dm] holiday with you, [Am] Bert, gentlemen like you are [C] few
_ [E] Though you're just a diamond in the rough dirt, [D] underneath your blood [Fm] _ is [Dm] blue
You'd never think of pressing your _ advantage, [Am] _ [Em] forbearance is the [Am] hallmark of your creed
[C] _ [F] A lady needn't [G]
[Em] fear when you are near, your [B] sweet gentility is [G] crystal clear
It's crystal clear
[C]
Oh it's a jolly holiday with [Am] you Bert, a [G] jolly jolly holiday [C] with _ _ you
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ [Ebm] It's a [Ab] jolly [Ebm] holiday for a [Ab] jolly song as [Db] well, Mary James you're off sunrise
_ _ [F] Well it's [Bb] a jolly [F] holiday, [Bbm] it's a [Eb] jolly [Gbm] song for [Ab] all
[Ebm] Oh [Ab] it's a jolly [Ebm] holiday with you Bert, gentlemen [Ab] _
[Db] like you are [Bbm] _ _ [Abm] _ _
_ [Gb] _ [C] _ [Bbm] few
You feel so [B] grand, your [C] heart starts beating like [Ab] a big brass [Db] band
_ [Bb] _ _ [Gb] _ _ [Db] _ Oh, it's a jolly old and jolly [Ebm] merry year-round
And a man [Ab] is merry [F] that we [Bb] _ [Ebm] love
A _ man is [Ab] merry that [Db] we love
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _
