Verse 1
(A minor) I called Norman over,
another (F major) chap called Jim.
I (C major) told him I'd volunteered to go to Spain
and that I was going on (A minor) the Saturday.
I (G major) told him I'd see (F major) them all on Saturday
in (C major) a pub at Tooting Broadway.
(A minor) But on the Saturday,
five (G major) lads turned up
(F major) to wish me good luck.
And I just said ta -ra to them.
We gather (C major) for the picture
My (E minor) five mates and (A minor) me
Like dapper (C major) little (A minor) devils
We are (C major) young and (F major) free
And (A minor) I sit in the (E minor) centre
Like the (C major) captain of the (F major) crew
And my (C major) coat is (A minor) an olden
But my shirt (G major) is almost new (F major)
And I'll (A minor) sing to Ratatouille
(E minor) And the (C major) lads I'll leave be (F major) hind
For the (C major) train (G major) waits in the (A minor) station
And it's (C major) time for me to (F major) ride
But I'll (G major) take this tiny picture,
so wherever (C major) I (E minor) may (F major) be
There'll be Jim (C major) and (G major) Jack an (A minor) d Ernie,
Norman, (G major) Les and (F major) me
And as (C major) we left the city
And the (E minor) grey lantern to (A minor) green
I (C major) thought about those (A minor) young lads
And the (C major) things we'd done and (F major) seen
How we (A minor) fought for the right to (E minor) ramble
The (C major) countryside all (F major) through
When the (C major) fences were (G major) all (A minor) oldens
But the (G major) land was almost (F major) new
And I (A minor) sent her out to (E minor) tootin'
And the (C major) lads I left behind (F major)
And as (C major) we came (G major) to New (A minor) Haven
There was (C major) one thing on my (F major) mind
But I'll (G major) take this tiny picture,
so wherever (C major) I (A minor) may (C major) (F major) be
There'll be (C major) Jim and (G major) Jack an (A minor) d Ernie,
Norman, (G major) Les and me (F major)
A night (C major) fell on the channel
And the (E minor) wind sang on the (A minor) sea
And I (C major) thought about those (A minor) young lads
And the (C major) times they sang with (F major) me
When (A minor) our tongues told of (E minor) freedom
And (C major) every note rang (F major) true
For (C major) though our (G major) tunes were (A minor) oldens
Our (G major) words were almost (F major) new
And I (A minor) sang to Ratatouille,
(E minor) and the (C major) lads I left be (F major) hind
And as (C major) morning broke (G major) on (A minor) Dieppe,
and the (C major) sun began to (F major) shine
I'll (G major) take this tiny picture,
so wherever I (C major) may (F major) be
There'll be (C major) Jim and (G major) Jack and (A minor) Ernie,
Norm and (G major) Les and (F major) Bay
When the (C major) picture's almost faded,
when (A minor) the (E minor) memory's almost gone (A minor)
Will I (C major) sit then and (A minor) wonder
How we (C major) ever were so (F major) young?
Will (A minor) there be young lads (E minor) somewhere
Whose (C major) hearts are just as (F major) true?
When (C major) our old (G major) world has (A minor) faded,
will (G major) theirs be almost (F major) new?
Then I'll (A minor) cry to Ratatouille,
(E minor) and the (C major) lads I left behind
(F major) 80 (C major) years (G major) be (A minor) fore me,
or (C major) 80 years be (F major) hind
And when (G major) all that's left's a picture,
whenever that (C major) (E minor) may (F major) be
There'll be (C major) Jim and (G major) Jack
an (A minor) d Ernie Norman, (G major) Les and (F major) me
Jim, (C major) (G major) Jack, (A minor) Ernie Norman,
(G major) Les, me
