Two Little Boys

E minorEm  A minorAm   D MajorD  E minorEm

E minorEm                  A minorAm     D MajorD   E minorEm
Two little boys had two little toys, Each had a wooden horse

E minorEm                     A minorAm    D MajorD    E minorEm
A augmentedA boy called Jannie and a boy called John, Soldieres both of course

E minorEm                      A minorAm      D MajorD   E minorEm
The Boere seuntjie Jannie galloped too fast, broke off his horses head

E minorEm                           A minorAm        D MajorD       E minorEm
He wept for his toy, but then he cried for joy, when he heard his little English friend say

    G+G            E minorEm          G+G     E minorEm    A minorAm
Did you think I would leave you crying, when there's room on my horse for you

   C majorC       D MajorD         G+G       A minorAm          D MajorD
Come up here Jannie now and stop your crying, we'll mend your horse with glue

G+G               E minorEm        G+G      E minorEm   A minorAm
When we grow up we'll both be soldiers, and our horses will not be toys

C majorC    D MajorD      G+G E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD     G+G
Then perhaps we'll remember, when we were two litle boys


A minorAm   D MajorD   E minorEm   A minorAm   D MajorD   E minorEm


E minorEm                 A minorAm      D MajorD      E minorEm
Long years past, war came at last, bravely they both marched away

E minorEm                     A minorAm     D MajorD     E minorEm
Canon roared loud in that wild crowd, where wounded and dying John lay

E minorEm                 A minorAm      D MajorD      E minorEm
Out from the ranks a rider did ride, out from the ranks of the boers.

E minorEm                    A minorAm    D MajorD      E minorEm
He galloped away to where John lay and he heard his Boer friend say


    G+G            E minorEm         G+G     E minorEm    A minorAm
Did you think I would leave you dying, when there's room on my horse for two

   C majorC        D MajorD       G+G    A minorAm         D MajorD
Come up here John and soon we'll be flying, together we'll get through

G+G            E minorEm       G+G      E minorEm      A minorAm
You see Boetie I'm all atremble, well it may be the flash and the noise

   C majorC     D MajorD     G+G E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD     G+G
Or perhaps its because I remember, when we were two litle boys


   C majorC    D MajorD     G+G     C majorC    D MajorD     E minorEm
when we were two litle boys, when we were two litle boys
