A                 D
Time was when the little toy dog was new
A                       E7
The soldier was passing there
A                                D
And that was the time when our little boy blue
A               E7       A 
Kissed them and put them there

Chorus:
A                 D
Don't you go till I come 
A                  E7
Don't you make any noise
A                   D
Toddling off to his trundle bed
A                 E7     A
He dreamed of his pretty toys

The little toy dog is covered with dusts
But sturdy and strong he stands
And the little toy soldier is covered with rusts
And his musket moulds in his hands

Chorus 

The years are many, the years are long
And each toy is in its same old place
Waiting the touch of a little hand
And the smile of a little face

Chorus

Yes the years are many and the years are long
But the little toy friends are true
Waiting for the smile that will never come
From the lips of our little boy blue
