C#7
Take good core of what you've got
F#
My father said to me
As he puffed his pipe and Baby B.
He dandled on his knee
F# F#7 B D7
Don't fool with fools who'll turn away
C#7 F#
Keep all Good Company
Oo Hoo Oo Hoo
Take care of those you call your own
And keep Good Company
Soon I grew and happy too
My very good friends and me
We'd play all day and Sally J.
The girl from number four
And very soon I begged her won't you
Keep me Company
D#7 G#m
Now marriage is an insinuation sure
C# F# D#7(VIII)
My wife and I our needs and nothing more
G#m
All my friends by a year by and by disappear
Bm A#
But we're safe enough behind our door.
I flourished in my humble trade
My reputation grew
The work devoured my waking hours
But when my time was through
Reward of all my efforts my own
Limited Company
I hardly noticed Sall as we
Bm C#
Pated Company
xx444x xx344x xx244x xx644x
All through the years in the end it appears
Bm A#
There was never really anyone but me
Now I'm old I puff my pipe
But no-one's there to see
I ponder on the lesson of
My life's insanity
Take care of those you call your own
And Keep Good Company
