[F#]
[B] Humming a golden day, [E] wishing me [A] heartache this Sunday,
[F#] Drinking [B] buttermilk through the week, [E] whiskey [A] on a Sunday.
He sits on the corner [B] of old Beggar's Bush, [E] on top of an old [A] hanging crate.
He has three wooden dolls [B] that can dance and can sing, [E] and he coos with a smile [A] on his face.
[F#] Come [B] Beggar day, [E] wishing me [A] heartache this Sunday,
[F#] Drinking [B] buttermilk through the week, [E] whiskey [A] on a Sunday.
His tired old hands tug [B] away at the strings, [E] and the puppets they dance up [A] and down.
A far better show [B] than you ever would see, [E] in the fanciest theatre [A] in town.
[F#] Come [B] Beggar day, wishing me [A] heartache this Sunday,
[F#] Drinking [B] buttermilk through the week, [E] whiskey [A] on a Sunday.
I'm sad to relate that [B] old sad deed he died [E] in
[A] 1904.
The three wooden dolls [B] in the dustbin were laid, [E] his songs will be heard [A] nevermore.
[F#] Come [B] Beggar day, [E] wishing me [A] heartache this Sunday,
[F#] Drinking [B] buttermilk through the week, [E] whiskey [A] on a Sunday.
So stormy night [B] when you're passing that way, [E] and the wind's blowing up from [A] the sea,
You'll still hear the song [B] of old sad Davy, [E] as he croons to his dancing [A] doll's tree.
[F#] Come [B] Beggar day, [E] wishing me [A] heartache this Sunday,
[F#] Drinking [B] buttermilk through the week, [E] whiskey [A] on a Sunday.
[F#] Come [B] Beggar day, [E] wishing me [A] heartache this Sunday,
[F#] Drinking [B] buttermilk
