E5
In the court of Augustine The Twelfth
           B5
The king reprimanded his men
       B5
And demanded they 
         E5
Put to good use all his wealth
    A5           B5
to cure his deep ennui

      E5                             A5          B5
For you see, he found that he was sad and lonely
E5                                    A5          
Ever since his wife, the queen, got mad and
          B5
Rode off on his steed

               E5                                    
In a glen beyond the castle wall 
       B5
There was a tinker
       B5
And he was a thinker
            E5
The smartest man in all the world
        A5            B5
He made a mechanical girl

E5                                 A5          B5
For you see, his daughter passed away that summer
E5                                       A5          
And though he knew he could not replace her
          B5
He missed his family

(Staccato strumming)
          A5                           E5
Suddenly a knock at the door went ra-ta-ta-ta-ta
          A5                            E5
And the kingsmen came in blowing horns ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba

         A5
"By order of His Highness
         E5
We're to take you and that...thing
         B5
To present your marvel to the king."

E5                         A5                 B5
And so, over glen and through the castle walls
E5                             A5          B5
Over the moat, and into the great castle hall
                         B5  B
