Verse 1
(D major) Well, me name is
Hoogie
McCormie, and me father's was as well
(G major) Of (D major) a little game he taught me,
and a story I will tell
We had lots of little soldiers,
and as sure as a day would (G major) come
We (D major) sent them in to fightin'
and defeatin' of a drum
And we (F major) put them all up on a table,
and we marched them all around
(G major) Then we battered (D major) them with our cannonballs,
and we watched them (G major) fall down
(D major) We'd lost a little cross as (D minor) much
we (F major) laid upon (G major) the dead
And we (D major) patched up all the wounded
ones and sent them (G major) off to (D major) bed (G major) (D major)
Well I went on and asked me
neighbours for a nickel or (G major) a dime
To help (D major) me buy some soldiers
just a while away me time
They were always very kindly in
supply (D minor) ing me (D major) with gun (G major) s
Some (D major) of them even let me play
at sol (G major) diers with their son (D major) s
So I brought (F major) them all up on the table
and I marched them all around
(G major) And I (D major) battered them with my cannonballs
and I watched them falling down
With lots of little crosses which
we (F major) laid upon (C major) the (G major) dead
(D major) We patched up all the wounded
ones and sent them (G major) off to (D major) bed
Well whenever I went to the shop
to (D minor) buy me (G major) guns and (D major) tanks
The (G major) (D major) man there always smiled,
patted me head and whispered thanks
If it wasn't for your soldier game,
I (G major) don't know what I'd do
But you (D major) keep me (G major) business busy,
son, so here's an extra few
(D major) And I (F major) put them all up on the table
and I marched them all around
(G major) Then (D major) I battered them with me cannonballs
and watched (C major) them falling down (A minor)
We (D major) got the little crosses which
we (G major) laid upon the (D major) dead
And we patched up all the wounded
ones and (G major) sent them off to (D major) bed (G major) (D major)
Oh, one day I bought some aeroplanes,
but this is what I found
When I sent them in to fight and held
me soldiers on the ground, oh
They bombed up every soldier and
they proved a terrible flop
And I had to buy another hun
(Asus4) dred crosses (G major) from the shop
An (D major) d I put (F major) them all up on the table,
I marched them all around
(G major) And I battered (D major) them with me cannonballs
and we (C major) watched them (G major) falling down (A minor)
(D major) With lots of little crosses which
we (D minor) laid upon (G major) the (D major) dead
We patched up all the wounded ones (A major)
and (D major) sent them (G major) off to (D major) bed (G major) (D major)
Now I'd very much like if I
could teach this little game of guns
To me fourteen lovely daughters and
me seven handsome son (Asus4) s
But the (D major) man in the shop he gave me a bomb
that he tucked down off the (G major) shelf
If (D major) bomb not fall me neighbours
or me soldiers and meself
lots of little soldiers
