Two Lovely Black Eyes Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Str[G]oll[C]ing so happy
down Bethnal Green,
[F]This [C]gale you might [G]have seen,
[C]Tompkins and [G]I w[C]ith his girl between.
Oh, [G]what a sur[C]prise!
I [F]praised the Conservatives
[C]frank and free,
[G]Tompkins got angry so [C]speedily,
[F]All in a moment he [Em]handed to [C]me[Em][G]
[C]two [D]lovely black eye[G]s.
[C]Two [G]lovely black eye[C]s!
[F]Oh, what a sur[C]prise!
[F]Only for [C]telling [G]a m[C]an
[F]he was wro[C]ng,[Em]
[A]Two [D]lov[G]ely black eye[C]s.
[G][Bm][G][C]
Next time I argued, I thought it best
To [F]give the conser[C]vative
[D]side [G]a rest.
The [C]merits of Gladstone
I freely pressed
When, oh, [G]what a sur[C]prise,
The chap [F]I had met was a T[C]ory true,
Noth[G]ing the Liberals' [C]right could do,
[F]This was my share of that
[Em]argument [C]too,
[D]Two lovely black [G]eyes.
[C]Two lovely [G]black [C]eyes,
[F]Oh, what a sur[C]prise,
[F]Only for [G]telling a [F]man he [Em]was wrong,
[A]Two [D]lov[G]ely black eye[C]s.[Ab][Db]
The moral [Ab]you've [Db]caught,
I can hardly doubt,
[F#]Nev er on [Db]politics r[Ab]ave and shout,
[Db]Leave it to others to fight it out,
If you [Ab]would be [Db]wise.
Better[F#], far better it is[Fm] to l[Db]et Liber
[Fm]als [Ab]and Tories alone[Db], you bet
[F#]Unless you're willing and
[Db]anxious [Fm]to g[Db]et
[Eb]Two [A]lovely black e[Ab]yes
[Db]Two [Ab]lovely black e[Db]yes
[F#]Oh, what a sur[Db]prise
Only [F#]for t[Fm]elling a man h[Eb]e was wr[Fm]ong
[Bb]to L[Eb]ovely[Aaug] Black Eyes[Db]
