[Intro]
C F
[Verse]
C Seymour was a work of art F Always getting into trouble D Never met a lass he didn't love G Never loved a lass that didn't have a hubba hubba hubba hubba C Seymour wasn't very smart F So he soon got a reputation D A list of suitors with reservations G To send him on a permanent vacation
[Chorus]
F C He said, I will live to fight another day F C I'll sing a song and soon be on my way F D7 My journey may be long before I'm done G So won't you play the drums C F Doo Doo Doo
[Verse]
C Seymour met a girl named Phil F Phil was sweet as honey D She liked fancy things G But Seymour didn't have no money money money money C Soon she stole his heart F And acquired a knack for thieving D So when the coppers broke down the front door G Seymour was outback leaving leavin' leavin' leavin'
[Chorus]
F C He said I will live to love another day F C I'll sing a simple song to ease my pain F D7 My journey may be long to sweeter shores D G So won't you play the horns
C
[Bridge]
D7 G On the road to a better place D G Bells ring, birds sing D7 G Nightly dreaming of those pearly gates D7 G How long must we roam C 'Til I can go home F C F Doo doo doo
[Verse]
C Seymour got it in his head F To change his sinful ways D Become a man of the cloth G No longer would he stra-ay-ay-ay C But on his way to church F Seymour received a sign D A messenger from the good Lord G In red high heels with blue-oo eyes
[Chorus]
F C He said, I will praise the Lord in my own way F C And revel in his creation everyday F D My journey may require me some grace G So let the choir sing
[Bridge]
D G On the road to a better place G D Bells ring, birds sing D G Nightly dreaming of those pearly gates D7 G How long must I roam C 'Til I can go home
[Outro]
F C F Doo doo doo
