E5 A5 F#5 D5 Bm7-5 E5
To the tables down at Mory's, to the place where Louis dwells,
D5 Bm7-5 E5 A5 E5 E5
To the dear old Temple bar we love so well,
A5 F#5 D5 Bm7-5 E5
Sing the Whiffenpoofs assembled, with their glasses raised on high,
D5 Bm7-5 E5 A5 E5 E5
And the magic of their singing casts a spell.
E5 A5 F#5 D5 Bm7-5 E5
Yes, the magic of their singing of the songs we love so well,
D5 Bm7-5 E5 A5
"Shall I Wasting" and "Mavourneen" and the rest;
E5 A5 A5 D5 D5
We will serenade our Louis while life and voice shall last,
A5 D5 E5 E/9 E5 A5 E5
Then we'll pass and be forgotten with the rest.
E5 A5 F#5 B5 E5
We're poor little lambs who have lost our way:
B5 E5 A5 E5 E5
Baa! Baa! Baa!
E5 A5 F#5 B5 E5
We're little black sheep who have gone astray:
B5 E5 A5 A5
Baa! Baa! Baa!
F#5 F#5 B5 B5
Gentlemen songsters off on a spree,
E5 E5 A5
Doomed from here to eternity;
F#5 F#5 Bm7-5 F?(III)
Lord have mercy on such as we:
D5 E5 A5 A5
Baa! Baa! Baa!
