Intro:Bm D, Bm A

  Bm            A               D             Em 
I am a handsome policeman, I am bold and versatile 
   G                 A              D          G 
My wife is white and beautiful with breasts of alabaster 
Bm           A               D               Em 
When I hurry home to her she whispers with a smile 
     G            A               D 
What did you do today my big blue hero? 
G         Bm 
There was only a gypsy 
  G              A               D 
A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoi 
G        Bm 
Up to no good, I did what I should 
         G            A             D      A  D      Bm D, Bm A 
A little physical persuasion and he passed on by. 
    Bm           A            D             Em 
But now I grow impatient to enjoy her juicy beauty 
  G                       A                D          G 
I searched for the rising rhythms of those breasts of alabaster 
Bm                 A                D            Em 
No, she cries pray tell me what you did today on duty 
G             A               D 
Tell me more about this hairy gypsy. 
G      Bm 
It was only a gypsy 
  G              A               D 
A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoi 
G        Bm 
Up to no good, I did what I should 
         G           A              D      A  D    Bm D, Bm A 
A little physical persuasion and he passed on by. 
    Bm             A                 D               Em 
But tell me pretty darling, will you tell me in your turn 
    G                       A               D          G 
Who placed those fresh wild flowers in your breasts of alabaster? 
    Bm               A                      D              Em 
And when you smile between your teeth still wedged do I discern 
  G               A               D 
A sprig of whisker from another?s moustache? 
G      Bm 
It was only a gypsy, she sighed 
  G              A               D               
A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoi 
G        Bm 
Up to no good, I did what I could 
         G           A              D      A  D 
A little physical persuasion and he passed on by. 
G      Bm 
It was only a gypsy boy 
  G              A               D 
A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoi-i-i 
G        Bm 
Up to no good, I did what I could 
         G           A              D      A  D 
A little physical persuasion and he passed on by. 
D 
Between her breasts a hedgerow nosegay, in between her teeth a tell-tale whisker, 
A                    D 
The house is full of clothes pegs.
