E7 A D9 A E7 A D9 A
There's a garden, what a garden,
E7 A F#m D9 Cdim Bm7/5- E7
Only hap - py fa - ces bloom there,
D9 E7 D9 E7 Cdim Bm7/5- E7
And there's nev - er an - y room there
D9 E7 D9 Cdim Bm7/5- A Edim E7
For a wor - ry or a gloom there.
E7 A D9 A E7 A D9 A
Oh, there's mu - sic and there's dancing,
E7 A F#m D9 Cdim Bm7/5- E7
And a lot of sweet ro - man - cing;
E7 D9 E7 Cdim Bm7/5- E7
When they play the pol - ka,
D9 E7 D9 E7 Fdim A D9 A
They all get in the swing.
A7 D F#m Bm Bm7/E D Fdim D
Ev' - ry time they hear that oom - pa - pa,
Bm7/5- A D9 A E7 A D9 A
Ev' - ry - bod - y feels so tra - la - la,
Bm7/5- E7 D9 Cdim Bm7/5- E7 D9 E7
They want to throw their cares a - way,
Bm7/5- E7 D9 E7 Fdim A
They all go lah - de - ah - de - ay.
A7 D F#m Bm Bm7/E D Fdim D
Then they hear a rum - ble on the floor, the floor --
Bm7/5- A D9 A E7 A D9 A
It's the big sur - prise they're wait - ing for.
Bm7/5- E7 D9 Cdim Bm7/5- E7 D9 E7
And all the cou - ples form a ring,
Bm7/5- E7 D9 E7 Fdim A
And for miles a - round you'll hear them sing.
A E7 A A6 A A6 A Edim E7
Roll out the bar - rel, we'll have a bar - rel of fun;
D9 Bm D9 E7 D9 E7 D9 Bm7/5- Cdim A
Roll out the bar - rel, we've got the blues on the run.
A E7 A A6 A A6 A A7/6 A7 D
Zing boom ta - rar - rel, ring out a song of good cheer;
Bm Bm7/E Bm7/5- Cdim A6 A F#7
Now's the time to roll the bar - rel,
D9 E7 A
For the gang's all here.
