[D]

[Verse 1]
[G]76
trombones left a [D]big parade
110 cornets close the [G]gate
Followed by rows and rows
of [C]finest virtu[A]osos
The [D]cream of every finest band
Seventy [G]-six trombones
caught the [D]morning sun
A hundred and ten cornets rack [G]high
More than a thousand reeds
springing [C]up like [A]weeds
There are [D]horns of every shape and [G]kind
There a [C]cop at the bottom
tipping the [G]horse patron
Thundering, [B]thundering,
[C]all along the way
Double meleophoniums and [G]big bassoons
[D]Each bassoon having his [G]big, [D]say
[G]There were fif[C]ty mountain cannon
in the [G]battery
Thundering, [B]thundering,
[C]louder than before
Clarinets of every size and [F]trumpeters
Who [B]improvise a [C]full octave
[G]higher than the [C]score[A][D]
Seventy [G]-six trombones
left the [D]big parade
When the order to march
rang out loud an[G]d clear
With the big bang bong
on a [C]Chinese [A]gong
By a [D]big bang bonger at the rear
Seventy [G]-six trombones
hit the [D]counterpoint
While a hundred and ten
cornets played the [G]air
Then I modestly took my place
as the [C]one and only [A]base,
and I [D]opened up and down the
[G]square.[D]
[G][C][A][D][A]
[D][G][D]
I am the [G]man of the hour
I am the [A]man [C]of the [A]hour

[Outro 1]
