[Verse 1]
Gm                     F#maj7-5/D
Davenports and kettle drums
Gm                      F#maj7-5/C
And swallow tail coats
Gm        F6add9    F9+5                     Daug D7+5
Table cloths and patent leather shoes
Gm                       F#maj7-5
Bathing suits and bowling balls
Gm                       F(-9)
And clarinets and rings
A#                 Cm                             G#  D D7
And all this radio really needs is a fuse

[Chorus]
Cm          F                A#7        Gm
A tinker, a tailor, a soldier's things
Cm        F                           A#    Daug D7+5
His rifle, his boots full of rocks
Gm                         F#maj7-5/C
And this one is for bravery
Gm                         F9+5 Daug D7+5
And this one is for me
         D                     D7
And everything's a dollar
Gm D    D7 Gm D7
In this box

[Verse 2]
Gm                   F#maj7-5/D
Cuff links and hub caps
Gm                 F#maj7-5/C
Trophies and paperbacks
Gm                    F6add9                 F9+5                    Daug D7+5
It's good transportation, but the brakes aren't so hot
Gm                F#maj7-5
Neck tie and boxing gloves
Gm                      F(-9)
This jackknife is rusted
A#                      Cm                          G# D D7
You can pound that dent out on the hood

[Ulangi Chorus]
