A A [Am Am]comical [C C]genius was [G G]thinking one [Dm Dm]day
How he'd take up a [C C]job and re[Em Em]ceive handy [Am Am]pay
He [Dm Dm]didn't like [Am Am]beggin' and [Em Em]work was to [Am Am]hard
So he got a bright [C C]notion to join [Em Em]up the [G G]"Guards"

Diddlee [Dm Dm]I dum diddlee [Am Am]I dum diddlee I [Em Em]dum dum [G G]day [Dm Dm]

Well he [Am Am]went up to [C C]Dublin to the [G G]depot went [Dm Dm]in
Got a new suit of [C C]blue as [Em Em]bright as new [Am Am]pins
They [Dm Dm]drilled him they [Am Am]drilled him they [Em Em]drilled him so [Am Am]hard
The ould sergeant pro[C C]claimed him a [Em Em]fully fledge [G G]guard

Diddlee [Dm Dm]I dum diddlee [Am Am]I dum diddlee I [Em Em]dum dum [G G]day [Dm Dm]

He was [Am Am]stationed some[C C]where near the [G G]town of A A[Dm Dm]thy
Rounds the roads of that [C C]district he [Em Em]kept a close [Am Am]eye
Now the [Dm Dm]girls they a[Am Am]dmired him [Em Em]as all brazers [Am Am]do
Fall in love with the [C C]guard and his [Em Em]new suit of [G G]blue

Diddlee [Dm Dm]I dum diddlee [Am Am]I dum diddlee I [Em Em]dum dum [G G]day [Dm Dm]

Well they'd [Am Am]laugh and they'd [C C]wink and they'd [G G]nod as he'd [Dm Dm]pass
Oh but this civee [C C]guard has his [Em Em]eye on one [Am Am]lass
But [Dm Dm]this little coll[Am Am]een she [Em Em]being a die [Am Am]hard
Soon made it quite [C C]clear that she [Em Em]wanted no [G G]guard

Diddlee [Dm Dm]I dum diddlee [Am Am]I dum diddlee I [Em Em]dum dum [G G]day [Dm Dm]

One [Am Am]time while on [C C]duty on a [G G]dark winter's [Dm Dm]night
He caught her out [C C]cycling with[Em Em]out any [Am Am]light
Where's your [Dm Dm]light miss, said [Am Am]he, for an [Em Em]answer sez [Am Am]she
It's next to me [C C]liver, where [Em Em]you'll never [G G]be

Diddlee [Dm Dm]I dum diddlee [Am Am]I dum diddlee I [Em Em]dum dum [G G]day
