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?

(Eb7)back to the ranks so (Ab7)blue.

Can (Db)feel

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.

About “Two Little Boys”

Is the engraved accompaniment score for "Two Little Boys" suitable for a pianist?
Yes — both hands are notated in classic piano notation (treble + bass clefs, key Gb, real chord symbols), engraved server-side from the publisher MusicXML. A staff pianist or accompanist can read this directly from the screen or printed PDF and play the backing while you sing the melody.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "Two Little Boys" by Rolf Harris in?
The backing track is in Gb at 116 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
Can I sing over "Two Little Boys" with this accompaniment?
Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
Is this a karaoke version of "Two Little Boys"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Two Little Boys", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "Two Little Boys" as a backing track for my instrument?
Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.
Can I download the accompaniment for "Two Little Boys"?
Yes — registered users can download MIDI + MusicXML (open in any notation software). PDF sheet music is also available for the full arrangement.
Who wrote "Two Little Boys"?
"Two Little Boys" was originally performed by Rolf Harris. This piano accompaniment is an arrangement of that song, designed for sing-along and play-along use.
What is this accompaniment Sheet Music view?
Same engraver-grade rendering as the standard Sheet Music mode — both hands, classic piano notation, key of Gb, real chord symbols — but the audio is the karaoke / backing-track arrangement of "Two Little Boys" with the lead melody removed. Perfect for singers, lead instruments, and ensemble practice.
Can I sing or play melody while the score follows along?
Yes. The backing track removes the melody so you can sing or play it on top while the chord changes and rhythm guide you. The engraved score scrolls in time with the audio so you never lose your place.
Is this the same notation a piano book would show?
Yes — treble + bass clefs, key signature, time signature, beams, dynamics, and chord symbols above the staff, all rendered from the original publisher MusicXML. Identical reading experience to a printed piano accompaniment book.
