Chords

As recorded by Gordon Lightfoot (From the 1968 Album DID SHE MENTION MY NAME?) [Intro] B [Verse 1]
E                 B
Finders, keepers, losers, weepers

B
Ring around the rosy and I'll catch you if I can

B
And if you don't say may I, then you'll have to start again

B
But first you must indulge me and count from one to ten

B
Let the game begin
[Verse 2]
E           B
I adore you when you touch me

B
Pin the tail upon the donkey, you will surely win

B
And if you don't say may I, then I'll pass the cake around

B
And I won't give you any, but you won't make a sound

B
You don't eat soap, anyhow
[Verse 3]
E                       B
Red light, green light, blue light, yellow light

B
You can take three giant steps or a baby step will do

B
But if you don't say may I, then I'll march you out the door

B
Where you'll be contemplating the numbers one to four

B
I hope you're keeping score

B
Cause if you don't say may I, then I'll get you with the hose

B
And spoil your Sunday clothes
[Verse 4]
E                  B
Will it please you if I tease you

B
While you're at the spindry, I'll pass the pie around

B
But you won't make a sound

B
You don't eat blackbird anyhow

B
There's four and twenty reasons why it can't be wrong

B
How long have you been gone
[Outro]
E                 B
Finders, keepers, losers, weepers

C#m           B
Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater

A                   F#m7
Wear your sneakers around sound sleepers
A D A E
