Verse 1
C
My name is what you may call me
Bb
and my father's was as well
C
Ah, the little game he taught me,
G
Dm
Bb
now the story I will tell
C
We'd lots of little soldiers and
Bb
as sure as the day would come
C
I sent them into battle with
the rattle of my drum
Bb
I put them up on the table and I
marched them all around
C
Then I battered them with the cannonballs
G
Bb
and watched them falling down
C
I've lots of little crosses that
Bb
I laid upon the dead
C
Then I punched up all the wounded
ones and sent them home to bed
I went round and asked the
Bb
neighbours for a nickel or a dime
C
So I could buy some soldiers just
G
Dm
Bb
to help me pass the time
C
They were always very kindly
Bb
in supplying me with guns
C
And some of them even let me play
G
C
at soldiers with their sons
Bb
And I put them up on the table and
I marched them all around
C
Then I battered them with the cannonballs
Bb
and watched them pound out
C
I'd lots of little crosses that
Bb
I laid upon the den
C
Then I punched up all the wounded ones
and sent them home to bed
Whenever I went to the shop
Bb
to buy me guns and tanks
C
The man there always smiled and patted
Dm
Bb
me head and whispered thanks
C
If it wasn't for your soldier gib,
Bb
I don't know what I'd do
C
You keep me business busy,
so here's a nice review
Bb
And I put them up on the table and
I marched them all around
C
Then I battered them with the cannonballs
Dm
and watched them falling down
Bb
C
I had lots of little crosses
Bb
that I laid upon the dead
C
Then I patched up all the wounded
ones and sent them home to bed
One day I bought some aeroplanes
Bb
but here was what I found
C
When I sent them in with bombs to
Bb
help my army up the ground
C
They bombed up every soldier
Bb
there and proved a sorrowful flop
C
I had to buy another hundred
crosses from the shop
Bb
Cause I put them up on the table and
I marched them all around
C
Then I battered them with the cannonballs
Dm
Bb
and watched them fall them down
C
I had lots of little crosses that
Bb
I laid upon the bed
C
Then I punched up all the wounded
ones and sent them home to bed
I would very much like if I could
Bb
teach this little game of guns
C
To my seven beautiful daughters
Bb
and my fourteen lovely son s
C
But the man in the shop,
Bb
he gave me down a bomb from out the shed
C
It blew up every soldier,
all my neighbours and meself
Bb
Cos I put them up on the table and
I marched them all around
C
Then I battled them with the cannonballs
Dm
Bb
and watched them fall and down
C
I'd lots of little crosses that
Bb
I laid upon the dead
C
Then I punched up all the wounded
ones and sent them all to bed
