(C) And the (D7) blood shall fill the (G) sea
I'll be carried home by Je(Em)sus
(C) And forever (D7) with him (G) be.
(G) The Beast with horns will come up(Em)on you
(C) One with (D7) seven, one with (G) ten.
Men will cry unto the moun(Em)tains,
(C) They'll pray to (D7) die, but cannot (G) win.
(D7) When the fire comes down from hea(Em)ven
(C) And the (D7) blood shall fill the (G) sea
I'll be carried home by Je(Em)sus
(C) And forever (D7) with him (G) be.
(G) The mark must be upon your fore(Em)head,
(C)These (D7) worldly goods you then can (G) buy
"Depart from me, I never knew (Em) you!"

[D7] I went to a dance with my sister Kate;
[G] Everybody there thought she danced so great;

When [D7] When I looked at Kate, she was in a trance,
I [G] know that she was shaking her dance

Over [A9] Kate’s new [D7] dancing [G] style.

Chorus
[G] Cornbread and butter beans and you across the [D7] table
Eating beans and making love as long as I am [G] able
Hoeing corn and cotton, too, and when the day is [D7] over
Ride a mule, a crazy fool, and love again all [G] over.
[G] Goodbye. Don’t you cry. I’m going to Lou’si[D7]ana,
Buy a dog and a big fat hog and marry Suzy [G] Anna.
Sing-song, ding-dong, gonna take a trip to [D7] China
Cornbread and butter beans, and there to Caro[G]lina.
Chorus
[G] Wearing shoes and drinking booze is going against the [D7] Bible
A necktie will make you die and cause you lots of [G] trouble
Streetcars and whiskey bars and kissing pretty [D7] woman,
Whoa, man, that’s the end of a terrible be[G]ginning.
Chorus
[G] Can’t read and don’t care and education’s [D7] awful
Raising heck and writing checks, that ought to be un[G]lawful
Silk hose and pretty clothes are just a waste of [D7] money
I can see how glad you’ll be to marry me, my [G] honey.

To (A) Lake Charles, Louisianna, little (D) Bessie, a girl who I once knew.
(A) She told me just to (D) come on by if there's (E) anything that she could do.
Chorus (A) Up on Cripple Creek, she sends me.
(D) If I spring a leak, she mends me.
(E) I don't have to speak, she defends me.
(F#m) A drunkard's dream if I (G) ever did see one.
(A) Good luck had just stung me, to the (D) race track I did go.
(A) She bet on one horse to win and I (E) bet on another to show.
The (A) odds were in my favor, I (D) had them five to one.
(A) When that nag to (D) win came around the track, (E) sure enough we had won.
Chorus
(A) I took up all of my winnings and I (D) gave little Bessie half.
(A) She tore it up and (D) threw it in my face (E) just for a laugh.
(A) Now there's one thing in the whole wide world (D) I sure would like to see.
(A) That's when that little (D) love of mine dips her (E) doughnut in my tea.
Chorus
(A) Me and my mate we were back at the shack, we had (D) Spike Jones on the box.
(A) She says, "I can't take the (D) way he sings, but I (E) love to hear him talk.

(A) And I swore as I (D) took another pull, my (E) Bessie can't be beat.
Chorus
Now there's a (A) flood out in California and up (D) north it's freezing cold.
(A) And this living (D) on the road is (E) getting pretty old.
So I (A) guess I'll call up my big mama, (D) tell her I'll be rolling in.
But you (A) know, deep down, I'm (D) kind of tempted
To (E) go and see my Bessie again.

Good evening i'm from Essex in case you couldn't tell. My given name is Dickie, I come
from Billericay and I'm doing very well
Had a (C) love affair with Nina in the (G) back of my Cortina.
A (F) seasoned up hye(G)na could (C) not have been more obscener.
She (Em) took me to the cleaners and (A) other misdemeanours,
but I (Em) got right up between her (G) rum and her Ribena,
(D) well (Em) you ask Joyce and Vicki..... if (A) candy-floss is sticky.
I'm (Em) not a blinking thicky. I'm Billericay Dickie and I'm (D) doing very (G) well
I (C) bought a lot of brandy when (G) I was courting Sandy.
Took (F) eight to make her (G) randy and (C) all I had was shandy.
An (Em) other thing with Sandy what (A) often came in handy
was (Em) passing her a 'Mandy', she (G) didn't half go bandy,
(D) well (Em) you ask Joyce and Vicki ..... if I (A) ever took the micky.
I'm (Em) not a flipping thicky. I'm Billericay Dickie and I'm (D) doing very (G) well
I'd (C) rondez-vouez with Janet quite (G) near the Isle of Thanet.
She (F) looked more like a (G) gannet. She (C) wasn't half a prannet.
Her (Em) mother tried to ban it. Her (A) father helped me plan it
and (Em) when I captured Janet she (G) bruised her pomegranet,
(D) well (Em) you ask Joyce and Vicki ..... if (A) I ever shaped up tricky.
I'm (Em) not a flipping thicky. I'm Billericay Dickie and I'm (D) doing very (G) well
You should (C) never hold a candle if you don't know where it's been. The jackpot is in
the handle on a (D) normal fruit ma(G)chine
(D) so (Em) you ask Joyce and Vicki..... (A) whos their favourite bricky.
I’m (Em) not a common thicky. I'm Billericay Dickie and I'm (D) doing very (G) well
I (Em) know a lovely old toe-rag obliging and noblesse......
a (A) kindly, charmaine shag from Shoeburyness.
My (Em) given name is Dickie. I come from Billericay. I thought you'd never (G) guess
(D) so (Em) you ask Joyce and Vicki ..... a (A) pair of squeaky chickies.
I'm (Em) not a flaming thicky. I'm (A) Billericay Dickie and I'm (D) doing very (G) well
Oh (Em) golly, oh gosh come and lie on the couch with a (A) nice bit of posh from
Burnham-on-Crouch. My (Em) given name is Dickie, I come from Billericay and I (D)
ain't a (G) sloutch.
(D) so (Em) you ask Joyce and Vicki..... About (A) Billiricky Dickie.
I (Em) aint no effin thicky...I'm Billericay Dickie and I'm (D) doing very (G) well

A7
(D)Twenty Christmas eves ago, the (G) landlord of The Star
(A7) Said here's a Christmas box for you, a (D) ninepenny cigar
I smoked it up till Easter like one (G) of the la-di-dah
Now every(A7)body knows me by the (D) end of me big cigar
(A7) With the (D) end of me old cigar, hurrah, hurrah, (G) hurrah!
I (A7) stroll up Piccadilly and they (D) fancy I'm the Shah
It ain't because I'm handsome, or I (G) do the la di dah
But (A7) I’d tickled the ladies fancy with the (D) end of my old cigar
(D) I used to be a sailor, but (G) when I was on the sea
The (A7) vessel struck upon a rock just (D) off the Zuyder Zee
The Captain yelled 'We're sinking' But I (G) said 'You're up the pole.'
And (A7) soon they saw your humble servant (D) bunging up the hole.
(A7) With the (D) end of my old cigar, Hoorah! Hoorah! (G) Hoorah!
I (A7) bunged the hole up in the ship and (D) saved each jolly tar
But soon they shouted 'Fire' but the (G) cabin boy said 'Bah,
He's (A7) under the boat and puffing away at the (D) end of his old cigar.
(D) The other Whitsun Monday we all (G) toddled to the zoo
I (A7) puffed away at my cigar and (D) choked the kangaroo
The monkey started coughing and the (G) tiger had a sneeze
But (A7) then the elephant said "here stop that (D) smoking, if you please"
(A7) With the (D) end of me old cigar, hoorah, hoorah, (G) hoorah,
I (A7) tickled up the elephant that (D) came from Zanzibar
"And what a funny tail he's" got says my (G) wife to her ma
"That (A7) isn't the elephant's tail" I says, "it's the (D) end of me old cigar"
(A7) With the (D) end of me old cigar, cigar, cigar, cigar, (G) cigar,
I (A7) tickled up the elephant that (D) came from Zanzibar
"And what a funny tail he's" got says my (G) wife to her ma
"That (A7) isn't the elephant's tail" I says, "it's the (D) end of me old cigar"

I tickled it beneath the chin and (G) then my wifes mama
Cried (G) out “It hasn’t got a tail, it (D7) does look singular”
So I borrowed a pin and stuck on the (Em7) end of my (D7) old ci(G)gar (D7)
I (G) went to see Lord Kitchiner a (D7) week or two ago
I said “I’ve got a great idea to (G) kill the German Foe”
and (C) said “If you send (C#dim) me out there, I’ll (G) stop their swank and bluff”
Then (Am) just to show my (D7) dignity I (G) took an-(Em)-other (D7) puff
With the (G) end of me old cigar, hurrah, hur(G)rah, hurrah!
I said you leave this war to me , old (G) cock and there you are
If (G) I can’t kill ‘em of with shells they’ll (D7) get a nasty tar
I’ll poison the whole darn’d lot of ‘em with the (Em7) end of my (D7) old ci(G)gar
