La Di Dum

G   C


[Verse 1]
       C               
On the 17th of March in 
 F
La-di-da-di-da,
  C                          G
A son was born to Mrs. Da-di-dum.
       C                     F
He had two arms, two legs, a mouth, 
and ears, and eyes
        G                       C
And the usual La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.


[Verse 2]
     C                  
They duly christened him 
 F
La-di-da-di-da.
     C                      
They gave his second name as 
       G
Da-di-dum;
           C                   
And throughout his life, and he 
 F
lived for 90 years,
       G       
He was known as 
                   C
La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.


[Verse 3]
   C               F
As he grew up, his La-di-da-di-da
     C                     
Grew quicker than his other 
       G
Da-di-dum;
    C               F
And when he was 15, everyone 
remarked
       G        
On his great big 
                   C
La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.


[Verse 4]
   C             F
He met a girl in La-di-da-di-da.
        C                      
She was pretty, though a little 
       G
Da-di-dum.
        C              F
But the reason that he loved her 
best, was she
       G                 
Didnae mind his great big 
                   C
La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.

    C                 
Her mother was awfully 
 F
La-di-da-di-da.
    C                           G
Her father was completely Da-di-dum.
         C                    F
And they sat him to dinner of Salmon
 Mayonnaise
      G                         C
And a bowl of La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.


[Verse 6]
       C                 
Now it all went well till 
 F
La-di-da-di-da.
   C                            G
He bent to take a bite of Da-di-dum.
   C                        F
He couped his plate and the Salmon 
Mayonnaise
       G                        C
Fell upon his La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.


[Verse 7]
    C                   
Her mother cried loudly, 
  F
"La-di-da-di-da!"
    C                      
Her father sort of mumbled, 
        G
"Da-di-dum."
        C                          
And her mother said, "Dear, you 
  F
must try to find a boy,
       G      
With a smaller 
                   C
La-di-da-di-da-di-dum."


[Verse 8]
         C                        
But they married in the spring of 
F
La-di-da-di-da.
     C                    
They honeymooned in lovely 
       G
Da-di-dum;
         C               F
But they found that they couldnae 
get in a double bed
        G        
For his great big 
                   C
La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.


[Verse 9]
    C               F
And so they decided La-di-da-di-da,
   C                            G
To use two single beds to Da-di-Dum
     C                       F
They slept together and they used 
the other one
        G       
Just to rest his 
                   C
La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.


[Verse 10]
       C              
On the 19th of June in 
 F
La-di-da-di-da,
        C                    
He took ill with an attack of 
       G
Da-di-dum;
        C                          
So they wrapped him up in bandages 
     F
that ended in a bow
G                           C
Round his La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.


[Verse 11]
   C                     
He died on the morning of 
 F
La-di-da-di-da,
  C                           G
A victim of the dreaded Da-di-dum.
     C                             
They put him in his coffin, but 
  F
they couldnae shut the lid
        G        
For his great big 
                   C
La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.


[Verse 12]
        C           F
Now the undertaker, La-di-da-di-da,
  C                         G
Decided on a plan for Da-di-dum.
   C                           
He made another coffin, roughly 
 F
three feet two by one,
        G       
Just to take his 
                   C
La-di-da-di-da-di-dum.


[Verse 13]
            C                      
Now you can read on his tombstone, 
 F
"La-di-da-di-da,
    C                  G
The son of La-di-da-di-dum.
     C                         F
Here lies his body, and in the next 
grave up but one,
         G                 C
Lies his La-di-da-di-da-di-dum."
