verse 1
C F
Talk about the shade of the sheltering palm
G C
Praise the bamboo tree with it's wide spreading charm
C F
There's a little nook down near old Hampstead Town
G
You know the place it has one great renown
C F
Often with my sweetheart on a bright summers day
G C
To the little pub there my footsteps will stray
C F
If she hesitates when she looks at the sign
G
Promptly I whisper now do not decline
C
Come come come and make eyes at me
G
Down at the Old Bull and Bush la la la la lah
G
Come come drink some port wine with me
F C
Down at the Old Bull and Bush
C
Hear the little German Band da da da da da da dah
F C
Just let me hold your hand dear
C
Do do come and have a drink or two
G C
Down at the Old Bull and Bush
verse 2
C F
In the little parlour on a cold winters night
G C
All is very clear both so sunny and so bright
C F
Nell looks at me now but not with a frown
G
She would not change with the queen and her crown
C F
It was there I first met the joy of my life
G C
She gave me her troth and she's now my dear wife
C F
Her eyes always glisten when she sees the old sign
G
So all of you join in a glass of good wine
C
So come come come and make eyes at me
G
Down at the Old Bull and Bush la la la la lah
G
Come come drink some port wine with me
F C
Down at the Old Bull and Bush

Hear the little German Band da da da da da da dah

Just let me hold your hand dear
