Dm                               E?  A7  
In the tower of London, large as life, 
A                                    Dm
the ghost of Anne Bolyn walks they declare.
Dm                                    E?  A7  
Poor Anne Bolyn was once King Henry's wife 
A                                   Dm   A Dm
until he made the headsman bob her hair.
    E?            Bb                A
Ah, yes, he did her wrong long years ago 
    Bb7                               A
and she comes up at night to tell him so,


Chorus:
               Dm   E? Dm     A  Dm   E?      Dm    A
      With her head      tucked    underneath her arm 
          Dm   E? Dm     E?    A   
      she walks        the bloody tower,
               E?   G?   Dm   E?      Dm          
      With her head   tucked underneath her arm 
E?   Bb  Bb7   A
      at the mid night hour.

She comes to haunt King Henry. 
          Bb7             A       
She means giving him what for. 
   Dm                    E?   
Gadzooks, she's going to tell him off. 
      Bb7          A                    
She's feeling very sore,          
  E?             G?        
& just in case the headsman wants to 
Dm       E?   Bb7   
give her an     encore 
              A    E?   Bb   A         Dm      
she's has her head tucked underneath her arm.

Chorus


    Dm                  E?             Bb7              A       
The sentries think that it's a football  that she carries in 
    Dm              E?                Bb7           A       
and when they had a few they shout, "Is Army going to win?"
     E?                G?              Dm       E?  Bb7   
They think that it's Red Grange instead of poor old Ann   Bolyn 
         A    E?   Bb   A         Dm      
with her head tucked underneath her arm.

Dm                               E?   A7  
Sometimes gay King Henry gives a spread  
    A                                 Dm
for all his pals and gals and ghostly crew.
    Dm                                     E?  A7  
The headsman craves the joint and cuts the bread 
     A                                Dm   A Dm
then in comes Anne Bolyn to queer the do.
    E?              Bb              A
She holds her head up with a wild war whoop 
    Bb7                                A
and Henry cries, "Don't drop it in the soup!"

Chorus

    Dm                    E?          Bb7            A       
One night she caught King Henry, he was in the canteen bar. 
     Dm                E?          Bb7                 A       
Said he, "Are you Jane Seymour, Anne Bolyn, or Katherine Parr?
E?              G?        Dm     E?    Bb7   
How the sweet san perryann do I know who you are 
          A    E?   Bb   A          Dm       HIGH Dm.    
with your head tucked underneath your arm?"
