Yankee Doodle

Verse 1
 E       
 Yankee Doodle went to town
 E       
 Riding on a pony
 E               A 
 Stuck a feather in his hat
     B             E 
 And called it macaroni

 And with the girls be handy

 Father and I went down to camp
 E
 Along with Captain Gooding
 E                    A

 As thick as hasty pudding

 There was Captain Washington
 E
 Upon a slapping stallion
 E             A             
 Giving orders to his men

 I guess there was a million

 And there we saw a thousand men
 E
 As rich as Squire David

 And what they wasted every day

 I wish it could be sa-ved

 Verse 5
 E
 And there I saw a pumpkin shell
 
 As big as mother's basin
 E                   A
 And every time they touched it off
      B                  E
 They scamper'd like the nation
 
 Chorus
 A 
 Yankee Doodle keep it up
 E 
 Yankee Doodle dandy
 A 
 Mind the music and the step
     E        B        E 
 And with the girls be handy
