[Verse 1]
Gm              F#maj7-5/D
 Davenports and kettle drums
Gm                F#maj7-5/C
 And swallow tail coats
Gm        F6add9  F9+5                Daug D7+5 
 Table cloths and patent leather shoes
Gm                 F#maj7-5
 Bathing suits and bowling balls
Gm                 F(-9)
 And clarinets and rings
A#               Cm                   G#  D D7
 And all this radio really needs is a fuse

[Chorus]
Cm        F            A#7          Gm    
 A tinker, a tailor, a soldier's things
Cm         F                  A#   Daug D7+5
 His rifle, his boots full of rocks
Gm                   F#maj7-5/C
 And this one is for bravery
Gm                   F9+5 Daug D7+5 
 And this one is for me
     D              D7
 And everything's a dollar
Gm  D     D7  Gm D7
 In  this box

[Verse 2]
Gm              F#maj7-5/D
 Cuff links and hub caps
Gm            F#maj7-5/C
 Trophies and paperbacks
Gm                 F6add9          F9+5                Daug D7+5 
 It's good transportation, but the brakes aren't so hot
Gm            F#maj7-5
 Neck tie and boxing gloves
Gm                 F(-9)
 This jackknife is rusted
A#               Cm                 G#  D D7
 You can pound that dent out on the hood

[Chorus]
Cm        F            A#7          Gm    
 A tinker, a tailor, a soldier's things
Cm         F                  A#   Daug D7+5
 His rifle, his boots full of rocks
Gm                   F#maj7-5/C
 And this one is for bravery
Gm                   F9+5 Daug D7+5 
 And this one is for me
     D              D7
 And everything's a dollar
Gm  D     D7  Gm D7 Gm
 In  this box
