Lyrics

(Db)Two lit tle boys had two lit tle toys, (F7)each had a wood en (Gb)horse.

(Ebm)Gai ly they (Bb)played, (Ebm7)each (Db)sum mer’s (Ab)day, (Eb)war ri ors both, of (Ab)course.

(Db)One lit tle chap then had a mis hap, (F7)broke off his hor ses (Gb)head.

(Ebm7)Wept for his (Gbm6)toy, then (Db)cried with joy as his (Eb)young play (Eb7)mate (Ab7)said:

Did you (Db)think I would leave you cry ing when there’s room on my (F7)horse for (Gb)two?

(Ebm7)Climb up here (Bbm)Jack, and (Ebm)don’t be cry ing, I can (Eb7)go just as fast with (Ab7)two.

When we (Db)grow up we’ll both be sol diers and our hor ses will (F7)not be (Gb7)toys.

And I (Ebm)won der if (Bbm)we’ll re (Eb7)mem ber when (Db)we were (Ab7)two lit tle (Db)boys.

(Db)Long years past, war came so fast, brave ly they (Ebm)marched a (Ab)way.

(Db)Can non (Ebm7)roared (Db)loud and (Gb)in the (Db)mad (Eb7)crowd, wound ed and dy ing (Ab)lay.

(Db)Up goes a shout, a horse dash es out, (F7)out from the ranks so (Gb)blue.

(Ebm7)Gal lops a (Gbm6)way to (Db)where Joe lay, (Eb)then came a voice he (Ab)knew.

Did you (Db)think I would leave you dy ing when there’s room on my (F7)horse for (Gb)two?

(Ebm7)Climb up here (Bbm)Joe, we’ll (Ebm)soon be fly ing, I can (Eb7)go just as fast with (Ab7)two.

Did you (Db)say, Joe, I’m all a trem ble?

Per haps it’s the (F7)bat tle’s (Gb7)noise.

But I (Ebm)think it’s that (Bbm)I re (Eb7)mem ber when (Db)we were (Ab7)two lit tle (Db)boys.

(Ab)Did you (Db)think I would leave you dy ing when there’s room on my (F7)horse for (Gb)two?

(Ebm7)Climb up here (Bbm)Joe, we’ll (Ebm)soon be fly ing, I can (Eb7)back to the ranks so (Ab7)blue.

Can you (Db)feel Joe, I’m all a trem ble?

Per haps it’s the (F7)bat tle’s (Gb7)noise.

But I (Ebm)think it’s that (Bbm)I re (Eb7)mem ber when (Db)we were (Ab7)two lit tle (Db)boys.

(Ab)Did you (Db)boys.
