ANNE BOLEYN Time: 4/4 Tenor: C Bass: C
6m * * *
Oh in the Tower of London large as life
3 * 6m *
The ghost of Anne Bo-leyn walks, they de-clare
6m * * *
For Anne Boleyn was once King Henry's wife
3m * 6m *
Un-til he had the axeman bob her hair
3 2m 6m *
Oh yes, he done her wrong, long years a-go
2m * 3 *
And she comes back each night to tell him so ..(CH)
CHORUS:
6m * * *
With her head tucked underneath her arm
6m * * *
She walks___ the bloody tower
2m * 6m *
With her head tucked underneath her arm
77 * 3 *
At the mid-night hour
6m * 3 6m
She's going to find King Henry, she's giving him what-for
6m * 3 6m
Gad-zooks, she's going to tell him off for having spilled her gore
3 2m 6m 2m
And just in case the axeman wants to give her an en-core
3 * 6m *
She's got her head tucked underneath her arm
6m * 3 6m
A-long the drafty corridors for miles and miles she goes
6m * 3 6m
She sometimes catches cold, poor thing, it's cold there when it blows
3 2m 6m 2m
And it's awfully awkward for the queen when she has to blow her nose ..(CH)

BRIDGE (CHORDS SAME AS INTRO):
6m * * *
Now sometimes old King Henry throws a spread
3 * 6m *
For all his pals and gals, the ghostly crew
6m * * *
The axeman carves the joints and cuts the bread
3m * 6m *
When in walks Anne Bo-leyn to spoil the "do " (OR: "queer")
3 2m 6m *
She holds her head up with a wild war whoop
2m * 3 *
And Henry cries, Don't drop it in the soup
3 * 6m *
One day she found King Henry, he was in the castle bar
6m * 3 6m
Are you Jane Seymour, Anne Bo-leyn or Katherine Parr
3 2m 6m 2m
Now how the Hell (Sam Jerry?) am I to know just who you are
3 * 6m *
You got your head tucked underneath your arm
3 * 6m *
The sentries think that it's a football that she carries in
6m * 3 6m
And when they see her, they all shout, Is Army going to win
3 2m 6m 2m
For they think that it's Red Grange instead of poor old Anne Bo-leyn ..(CH)
