Verse 1
The (A minor) Days of
The days of (A major) chivalry (E major) are dead,
(A minor) of which in stories (D major) we have read.
When (E major) knights were bold
and acted kind of scrappy. (A minor)
When (F major) guys (A minor) would take a lot of pains
and fight all day (A major) to please the James. (G major)
(E major) And if their dame was tickled,
they was (A major) happy.
But now (F sharp major) the men are (C sharp major) mild and meek,
they seem to (F sharp major) have a yalla streak.
They nev (C sharp major) er wait for other
gents to flatten (F sharp major) on
They think (G major) they've done a darn (D major) fine thing
If (G major) they just buy the girl a ring
Of (D major) imitation diamonds and (G major) platinum
It makes me sorta sad
To read about Sir Galahad
And (C major) all the nights of that romantic day
To amuse (F major) a girl and (D major) charm her
They would (G major) get into their armor and
He's (C major) up into the (G major) fray, (C major)
they (G major) call her Lady Love.
They used to wear her little blouse,
and (C major) everything that she said (E minor) went.
For them (D major) was the (B major) days
(Cdim) when a (C major) lady was a (A major) lady,
and a (D major) gent was (G major) a perfect
gent. (C major) (F major) (E major) (A minor)
At (A major) night when they sat down to dine,
Sir Claude would say, that (D major) girl of mine
Makes (E major) every woman jealous
when she sees (A major) her
(C major) Then (A minor) someone else would yell,
Be (C major) have, thou mal (A major) apert
and (D major) scurvy knave
For I (E major) will smite thee one
upon the (A major) beaser
And then one (C sharp major) morning, if you please
They dress (F sharp major) in iron BVDs
And (C sharp major) mount a pair of charges highly betold (F sharp major)
But when Sir (D major) Claude so fair and young
Got (G major) punctured in the leg or lung
They looked (D major) upon the argument as (G major) settled
It makes me sort of sad
To read about Sir Galahad
And (C major) all the knights of that romantic day
To amuse (F major) a girl and (D major) charm her
They would (G major) get into their armour
And jump in (C major) to the fray
They (G major) call her Lady Luck,
they used to wear her little glove
And (C major) everything that she said went (E minor)
For them (D major) was the (F sharpdim) days
(Cdim) when a (C major) lady was a (A major) lady
And a (D major) gent was a (G major) perfect gent (C major) (G major)
(C major)
(G major) (D major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) (C major) (E minor)
For (G major) them (D major) was (D minor) the (G major) days
(F sharpdim) when a (C major) lady was a (A major) lady,
and a (D major) gent was a (G major) perfect gent. (C major)
(A major) A (D major) gent was a (G major) perfect gent
(C major) A (A major) (D major) gent was a (G major) perfect gent
(C major)
