#1. 
Cm           G7                 Cm 
Long ago, in days of old, there lived a knight who 
Ab              Eb                       G7 
wasn't quite as bold, as a knight should be. 
   Cm               G7                Cm 
He rode an old grey mare called Bess, searchin' for  
  Ab            Eb                    G7                C7 
a damsel in distress...just to see if he, could set her free. 

Chorus: 
Fm7     Bb7             Eb                  C7 
See the knight in rusty armour ride..To her aid. 
Fm7    Bb7              Eb                  D7    G7 
Trusty sword is hanging at his side..With a rusty blade. 

#2. 
Cm           G7                    Cm 
Up the tower steps he sneaked, but as he moved, 
    Ab           Eb                        G7 
his rusty armour squeaked..Such a mournful note.. 
     Cm               G7              Cm   
that all the sentries at their posts, thought it must  
              Ab     Eb 
have been the castle ghost. 
                      G7            C 
They jumped for their lives..In the moat. 

Chorus:#2. 
Fm7    Bb7             Eb                   C7 
So the knight in rusty armour won..His fair maid. 
Fm7    Bb7              Eb                   D7    G7 
Had no need to draw his trusty sword..With a rusty blade. 

#3. 
Cm            G7                 Cm 
As he bent to kiss his bride, he found that he was 
Ab          Eb                  G7 
rusted up inside..in his battle dress. 
            C7 
And I can't guess... 
Fm7      Bb7               Eb 
How they still got married and had twins. 
             C7 
They came in tins. 
Fm7   Bb7            Eb   Ab    Eb    Ab 
Every suit of armour ever made, has a kink, 
Eb         Ab           Bb7     Eb 
chain mail pants with a missing link.
