Key of D Major
[D]Talk about the shade of the [G]sheltering palm
[A]Praise the bamboo tree
with it's [D]wide spreading charm,
[D]There's a little nook
down near [G]old Hampstead Town,
You [A]know the place it has one great renown,
[D]Often with my sweetheart on a [G]bright Summers day,
To [A]the little pub there my [D]footsteps will stray,
[D]If she hesitates when she [G]looks at the [A]sign,
Promptly I whisper, [A7]"Now do not decline."
[D]Come, come, come and make eyes at me
[A]down at the Old Bull and Bush,
Da, da, da, da, da,
[A]Come, come, drink some port wine with me,
[G]Down at the Old Bull and [D]Bush,
[D]Hear the little German Band,
Da, da, da, da, da,
Just let me[G] hold your hand [D]dear,
[D]Do, do come and have a drink or two
[A]down at the Old Bull and [D]Bush.
