C            Am        Dm      F      G                        C
Oh, he sits at the corner of Beggars Bush, astride of an old packing case,
         Am                     Dm            F             G
And the dolls at the end of the plank were dancing, as he crooned with a smile
        C
on his face

[Chorus]
Am         Dm      G                       C
Come day, go day, wishing me heart it was Sunday
Am                   Dm                     G            C
Drinking buttermilk all the week, and it's whiskey on a Sunday

[Verse]
    C                Am      Dm      F
His tired old hands from the wooden beam,
    G                              C
And the puppets they danced up and down
   Am                     Dm         F
A far better show than you ever will see,
       G                   C
In the fanciest theatre in town

[Chorus]
Am         Dm      G                       C
Come day, go day, wishing me heart it was Sunday
Am                   Dm                     G            C
Drinking buttermilk all the week, and it's whiskey on a Sunday

[Verse]
    C          Am      Dm      F
In nineteen o two old Seth Davy died,
    G                     C
His song, it was heard no more
     Am                        Dm            F
His three dancing dolls in the dustbin were thrown,
        G                      C
And the plank went to mend the back door

[Chorus]
Am         Dm      G                       C
Come day, go day, wishing me heart it was Sunday
Am                   Dm                     G            C
Drinking buttermilk all the week, and it's whiskey on a Sunday

[Verse]
    C           Am             Dm           F
On some stormy night if you're passing that way,
             G                     C
With the wind blowing up from the sea
         Am            Dm            F
You may still hear the song of old Seth Davy,
        G                           C
As he croons to his dancing dolls three

[Chorus]
Am         Dm      G                       C
Come day, go day, wishing me heart it was Sunday
Am                   Dm                     G            C
Drinking buttermilk all the week, and it's whiskey on a Sunday
Am                   Dm                     G            C
Drinking buttermilk all the week, and it's whiskey on a Sunday
