[Verse 1]
[G]
[Chorus: ]
Well, there's a big ball in Boston,
[C]big ball in [G]town
Big ball in Boston, [F]I'm gonna get on [G]down
The birthplace of our nation is Boston,
so they say
They try to keep it as it was
But it's [C]changing ev'ry [G]day
[Chorus: ]

[Verse 2]
The Red Coats, they were [C]comin',
their [G]cloth was made of tweed
Some say their [F]shirts were button [G]down
(The tradition is Ivy League)
[Chorus: ]

We met a chap from [G]Harvard,
very slim and pale
The last time that we saw him he was
dancing with a cat from Yale

[Verse 4]
[Chorus: ]
[G]And just a mile from Harvard's
,a campus you should see
M- i- t- [C]k- e- why [G]M- o- you- s-
