G | C | D / / D7 | G

A                                                                                 E
Now how I came to get this hat, 'tis very strange and funny
          E                      E7                E                A
Grandfather died and left to me his property and money
       A                                                                              E
And when the will it was read out, they told me straight and flat
               E           E7                    E                   A
If I would have his money, I must always wear his hat

CHORUS
A                                                                                 E
"Where did you get that hat? Where did you get that tile?
          E                      E7                        A
Isn't it a nobby one, and just the proper style?
       A                                                     E
I should like to have one Just the same as that!"
              E             E7                                                A
Where'er I go, they shout "Hello! Where did you get that hat?"

If I go to the op'ra house, in the op'ra season

There's someone sure to shout at me without the slightest reason

If I go to a chowder hall to have a jolly spree

There's someone in the party who is sure to shout at me

CHORUS

At twenty-one I thought I would to my sweetheart get married

The people in the neighbourhood had said too long we'd tarried

So off to church we went right quick, determined to get wed

I had not long been in there, when the parson to me said

CHORUS

I jumped into politics but failed to get elected

On a stage I stood to give a speech when a good size crowd collected

and I had dodged the eggs and fruit, which was no easy task

When one man cried, "A question I the candidate would ask!"

(These verses by D. Williams)

The virus came to our town, so many folks infected

I took hydroxychloriquine... Trump said I'd be protected

I couldn't breathe, called 911, said :"boys please don't be slow"

When I came to the EMT said "one thing that I must Know"

CHORUS

I dreamed I died and stood in line at the pearly gates

an angel held the ledger, soon I'd learn my fate

St Peter drove up in a car and put me right at ease

"Don't worry Dave, you're in like Flynn but you must tell me please!

CHORUS
