Stop The Cavalry - Jona Lewie - Ukulele Chords

Dead easy this one and another Christmas song that I like - hard to go wrong with this on the ukulele!

Video at the end to play along with - the chords are simple enough, but it's about getting the right marching rhythm for the song.

Stop The Cavalry - Jona Lewie


[A] Hey Mister Churchill [E7] comes over here
[A] To say we're doing [E7] splendidly,
[A] But it's very cold [E7] out here in the snow
[A] Marching to and from the [E7] enemy.
[A] Oh I say it's tough, [E7] I have had enough
[A] Can you stop the [E7] cavalry?

[A] Dadadadada,[E7] dadadadada,
[A] dadadadada,[E7] dadadaaa
[A] Dadadadada,[E7] dadadadada
[A] Da da da da [E7] daa da [A] daaa

[A] I have had to fight [E7] almost every night
[A] Down throughout the [E7] centuries,
[A] That is when I say [E7] oh yes, yet again,
[A] Can you stop the [E7] cavalry? [A]

[E7] Mary proudly [A] waits at home
[E7] In the nuclear [A] fallout zone
[E7] Wish I could be [A] dancing now,
[E7] In the arms of the [A] girl I love.

[E7] Du bu du bu dum dum, du bu du bu dum
Dubu[A] dumdumdubudumdubudubudum
[E7] Du bu du bu dum dum, du bu du bu dum
Dubu[A] dumdumdubudumdubudubudum
[G] Wish I was at home for [D] Christmas...

[E7] Wish I could be [A] dancing now,
[E7] In the arms of the [A] girl I love.
[E7] Mary proudly [A] waits at home
[E7] She‟s been waiting [A] two years long
