Seventy Six Trombones Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C][G][D][G]
76
[C]trombones [D]led the big parade
[G]With [D]a hundred and [G]ten
cornets [C]close at hand
They [G]were followed by [C]rows and rows
Of the [F]finest virtu[D]osos
The cream of every famous band
76 [C]trombones caught the [G]morning sun
With a hundred and ten
cornets [F]right be[C]hind
There were more than a thousand [Bb]reeds
springing [Am]up like we[D]eds
There were horns [G]of every
shape and [C]kind
There were [F]copper -bottomed timpani
and [C]horse platoons
Thundering,
thunder[G]ing all [F]along the[C] way
Double -billed eu[F]phoni
[C]ums and big bassoons
[G]Each bassoon hav[C]ing his big,
[G]fat say
[C]There were [F]fifty mounted cannon
in the [C]battery
Thundering, [G]thundering,
[F]louder [C]than before
[F]Baradets of [D]every size and [G]trumpeters who'd [Em]improvise
a [F]full [D]octave [G]higher [C]than [D]the score[G]
Seventy [C]-six trombones
[D]led the big [G]parade
[D]When [G]the order to march rang
out loud and [C]clear
Starting off with a big bang -bong on a
Chinese [F]gong
[D]By a big bang bonger at the[A] rear
[C]Seventy -six trombones
hit the [D]counter[G]point
While a hundred and ten
cornets play the [C]air
Then I modestly took my [Bb]place
as the [F]one and only [D]bass
And I [G]oomphed on up and [C]down the square
[G][Bm][D][A][D]
[Bm][G][C]
[G]Boom, [D]boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom,
[A]boom, boom.[D][G][D]
[Bm][Em][G][C][D]
[G]
[C]Seventy -six trombones
[D]led the big parade
When the order to march [C]rang
[G]out loud and [C]clear
Starting off with a big bang -bong [Bb]on a
[F]Chinese [D]gong
By a big bang -bonger at the [G]rear
[A]Seventy -si[C]x trombones hit
the counter[D]point
While [G]a hundred and ten
cornet[Em]s pl[D]ay the[C] air
Then I modestly turn my [Bb]face
as the [F]one and only [D]bass
And I [C]oom -pah, [G]oom -pah, [C]oom [G]-pah
Up and down the [C]square!
[C][D][C]
