CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO: C majorC G+G FF G+G  (4x)

  C majorC
Sir Eglamore was a valiant knight
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
  C majorC
He took up his sword and he went to fight
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
C majorC        FF
As he rode o'er hill and dale
  C majorC       G+G
All armoured in a coat of mail
C majorC       FF        G+G     C majorC    FF
Fa la la-n-ba, da-n-da da-n-ba, lanky down dilly

  C majorC
Out came a dragon from her den
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
   C majorC
That killed god knows how many men
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
C majorC        FF
When she saw Sir Eglamore
  C majorC           G+G
You should have heard that dragon roar
C majorC       FF        G+G     C majorC   FF G+G
Fa la la-n-ba, da-n-da da-n-ba, lanky down dilly


C majorC
When the trees began to shake
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
C majorC
Horse did tremble and man did quake
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
  C majorC         FF
The birds betook them all to peep
  C majorC        G+G
It would've made a grown man weep
C majorC       FF        G+G     C majorC   FF G+G
Fa la la-n-ba, da-n-da da-n-ba, lanky down dilly

C majorC
Twas all in vain it was to fear
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
C majorC
For now they fall to fight like bears
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
C majorC         FF
To it they go and soundly fight
  C majorC         G+G
The live-long day from morn' 'til night
C majorC       FF        G+G     C majorC
Fa la la-n-ba, da-n-da da-n-ba, lanky down dilly

   C majorC
This dragon had a plaguey hide
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
   C majorC
That could the sharpest steel abide
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
  C majorC         FF
No sword could enter through her skin
   C majorC          G+G
Which vexed the knight and made her grin
C majorC       FF        G+G     C majorC   FF G+G
Fa la la-n-ba, da-n-da da-n-ba, lanky down dilly


   C majorC
But as in choler she did burn
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
  C majorC
He fetched the dragon a great good turn
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
  C majorC      FF
And as a-yawning she did fall
  C majorC          G+G
He pushed his sword up hilt and all
C majorC       FF        G+G     C majorC   FF G+G
Fa la la-n-ba, da-n-da da-n-ba, lanky down dilly


  C majorC
And like a coward she did fly
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
C majorC
To her den which was hard by
FF        G+G
Fa la lanky down dilly
  C majorC         FF
And there she lay all night and roared
  C majorC        G+G
The knight was sorry for his sword
C majorC       FF        C majorC G+G
Fa la la-n-ba, da-n-da da-n-ba
C majorC       FF        C majorC G+G
Fa la la-n-ba, da-n-da da-n-ba
C majorC       FF        C majorC G+G
Fa la la-n-ba, da-n-da da-n-ba
C majorC       FF        C majorC G+G
Fa la la-n-ba, da-n-da da-n-ba
