Anne Boleyn

ANNE BOLEYN Time: 4/4 Tenor: C Bass: C

6m * * *

Oh in the Tower of London large as life

3 * 6m *

The ghost of Anne Bo-leyn walks, they de-clare

6m * * *

For Anne Boleyn was once King Henry's wife

3m * 6m *

Un-til he had the axeman bob her hair

3 2m 6m *

Oh yes, he done her wrong, long years a-go

2m * 3 *

And she comes back each night to tell him so ..(CH)

6m * * *

With her head tucked underneath her arm

6m * * *

She walks___ the bloody tower

2m * 6m *

With her head tucked underneath her arm

77 * 3 *

At the mid-night hour

6m * 3 6m

She's going to find King Henry, she's giving him what-for

6m * 3 6m

Gad-zooks, she's going to tell him off for having spilled her gore

3 2m 6m 2m

And just in case the axeman wants to give her an en-core

3 * 6m *

She's got her head tucked underneath her arm

6m * 3 6m

A-long the drafty corridors for miles and miles she goes

6m * 3 6m

She sometimes catches cold, poor thing, it's cold there when it blows

3 2m 6m 2m

And it's awfully awkward for the queen when she has to blow her nose ..(CH)

BRIDGE (CHORDS SAME AS INTRO):

6m * * *

Now sometimes old King Henry throws a spread

3 * 6m *

For all his pals and gals, the ghostly crew

6m * * *

The axeman carves the joints and cuts the bread

3m * 6m *

When in walks Anne Bo-leyn to spoil the "do " (OR: "queer")

3 2m 6m *

She holds her head up with a wild war whoop

2m * 3 *

And Henry cries, Don't drop it in the soup

3 * 6m *

One day she found King Henry, he was in the castle bar

6m * 3 6m

Are you Jane Seymour, Anne Bo-leyn or Katherine Parr

3 2m 6m 2m

Now how the Hell (Sam Jerry?) am I to know just who you are

3 * 6m *

You got your head tucked underneath your arm

3 * 6m *

The sentries think that it's a football that she carries in

6m * 3 6m

And when they see her, they all shout, Is Army going to win

3 2m 6m 2m

For they think that it's Red Grange instead of poor old Anne Bo-leyn ..(CH)
