Verse 1
(G major) He said his pride and joy (D major)
was that old John Bull Tin. (C major) (G major)
Verse 2
He said it (G major) saved him from a (D major) bullet
once (C major) - but I did not believe
(G major) He was just an old man in the park,
half (D major) drunk on rum
As he (G major) rolled an (D major) other smoke
and (C major) closed the John Bull (G major) Tin
He said,"I've carried that
since (D major) (G major) 1931."
