Written by Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky
Intro (trumpets)Verse 1:
A E The toy shop door is locked up tight A E And everything is quiet for the night A When suddenly E The clock strikes twelve Bm E The fun's begunA E The dolls are in their best arrayed A E There's going to be a wonderful parade A Hark to the drum E Oh, here they come Bm E A Cries everyonePost-Chorus
A Hear them all cheering A Now they are nearing E There's the captain stiff as starch E Bayonet's flashing, Music is crashing A As the wooden soldiers marchInstrumental A E x5 Bm E A E x3 Bm E A E x3Verse 2:
A Sabres a-clinking A Soldiers a-winking Dbm At each pretty little maid Dbm Here they come, here they come A Dbm Here they come, here they come Bm E Wooden soldiers on paradeVerse 3:
