Jake The Peg Chords

   
Chorus 
             C
I'm Jake the Peg diddle-iddle-iddle-um
              G
With my extra leg diddle-iddle-iddle-um
           F
Wherever I go through rain and snow
           C
the people always let me know
        G        C
There's Jake the peg diddle-iddle-iddle-um

With his extra leg diddle-iddle-iddle
 
Verse 1
C                                 F
The day that I was born oh boy my father nearly died
   G                             C
He couldn't get my nappies on no matter how he tried
C                                    F
'Cos I was born with a extra leg and since that day begun
  G                                             C
I had to learn to stand on my own three feet believe me that's no fun

Verse 2
C                                   F
I had a dreadful childhood really I s'pose I shouldn't moan
     G                                   C
Each time they had a three legged race I won it on me own
C                           F
And also I got popular when came the time for cricket
     G                               C
They used to roll my trousers up and use me for the wicket.
