Jog Along Bess

 D         G    A          D
Jog along Bess, hop along May
 D            G            A          Bm
Squeak along Blue, it's a walk-along day
 D            G       A        D
It's a long road and weary are we
 D          G         A                D
Bubble on kettle and make us all some tea

 [Verse]
 D         G      A     D
Once there was a gypsy man
 D        G              D      A
Selling flowers from a baker's van
 D          G          A        D
Bess, she pulled him round the town
  D         Bm        A        D
Pulled her wagon all old and brown

F#m   D          F#m        D
Till one day, we took her away
 Bm                 A         D
Painted her wagon bright and gay
F#m      D             F#m       D
Now she finds she's travelling north
Bm                 A        D
No more wandering back and forth

[Chorus]
D          G     A         D
Jog along Bess, hop along May
D             G            A          Bm
Squeak along Blue, it's a walk-along day
D            G         A       D
It's a long road and weary are we
D           G         A                D
Bubble on kettle and make us all some tea

[Verse]
 D          G        A     D
Once there was an Afghan hound
 D       G            D      A
Loved by no one and pushed around
 D      G      A     D
Tied up in a stable yard
 D           Bm         A      D
Tangled and timid and howling hard

F#m       D       F#m      D
Till one day, we took her away
Bm                 A           D
Called her Magog; shortened to May
    F#m     D   F#m      D
She hurt a paw, made it sore
        Bm                     A       D
Now she runs on three legs instead of four

[Chorus]
D          G     A         D
Jog along Bess, hop along May
D             G            A         Bm
Squeak along Blue, it's a walk-along day
D            G         A       D
It's a long road and weary are we
D           G         A                D
Bubble on kettle and make us all some tea

[Verse]
        D      G       A     D
There lived a dog in London Town
      D      G           D         A
With one ear up and the other ear down
     D          G        A      D
The neighbours said he mustn't bark
     D    Bm               A        D
The only grass he knew was in Hyde Park

F#m       D       F#m      D
Till one day, we took him away
Bm                         A        D
Now Blue bounces through fields of hay
       F#m        D             F#m     D
But he sits and squeals like a squeaky wheel
          Bm                         A      D
When the wheels are rolling, that's how he feels

[Chorus]
D          G     A         D
Jog along Bess, hop along May
D             G            A         Bm
Squeak along Blue, it's a walk-along day
D            G         A       D
It's a long road and weary are we
D           G         A                D
Bubble on kettle and make us all some tea

[Bridge]
D                        G
Little green wagon in a deep blue sky
A                       Bm
Wheels like dandelions passing by
        D                 G
With a picture by Sam, a painting by John
       A                    A        D
And a bonnie black hoss to lead you along
D                             G
Lucky green wagon, you were raggedy brown
A                       Bm
Now there is red at the hem of your gown
         D                      G
And we brought you a pumpkin, brought you a mouse
     A                       A         D
We wished very hard and you gave us a house

[Chorus]
D          G     A         D
Jog along Bess, hop along May
D             G            A         Bm
Squeak along Blue, it's a walk-along day
D            G         A       D
It's a long road and weary are we
D           G         A                D
Bubble on kettle and make us all some tea
