Marvelous Toy

INTRO: C  G  D  G
                  D
When I was just a little girl
G                  D
Full of health and joy
    C                 G
One Christmas morning I received
  A7                D
A marvellous little toy
  G           D
A wonder to behold it was
     G            C
With many colours bright
                      G
And the moment I laid eyes on it
     A7                D
It became my heart's delight
CHORUS:
         G
It went "Zip" when it moved
 D
"Pop" when it stopped
 G                    C
"Whirr" when it stood still
                  G
I never knew just what it was
      D             G     C  G  D  G
And I guess I never will
                      D
The first time that I picked it up
  G            D
I had a big surprise
       C                        G
'Cause right on the bottom were two big buttons
     A7                    D
That looked like big green eyes
  G                    D
I first pushed one and then the other
    G                 C
And then I pushed its lid
                  G
And when I set it down again
A7              D
This is what it did:
CHORUS:
         G
It went "Zip" when it moved
 D
"Pop" when it stopped
 G                    C
"Whirr" when it stood still
                  G
I never knew just what it was
      D             G     C  G  D  G
And I guess I never will
                           D
It first marched left, and then marched right
    G                 D
And then went under a chair
    C                   G
And when I looked where it had gone
   A7          D
It wasn't even there
  G                  D
I started to cry, my daddy laughed
   G                 C
He knew that I would find
                        G
When I turned around my marvellous toy
  A7              D
A-chugging from behind
CHORUS:
         G
It went "Zip" when it moved
 D
"Pop" when it stopped
 G                    C
"Whirr" when it stood still
                  G
I never knew just what it was
      D             G     C  G  D  G
And I guess I never will
INSTRUMENTAL:   (## same as verse ##)
               D  G  D  C  G  A7  D  G  D  G  C  G  A7  G
                           D
The years have gone by too quickly it seems
  G                  D
I have my own little boy
    C           G
And yesterday I gave to him
   A7                D
My marvellous little toy
    G                                   D
His eyes nearly popped right out of his head
   G                C
He gave a squeal of glee
                                 G
And neither one of us knows just what it is
       A7                 D
But he loves it just like me
CHORUS:
               G
It still goes "Zip" when it moves
 D
"Pop" when it stops
 G                     C
"Whirr" when it stands still
                  G
I never knew just what it was
      D             G
And I guess I never will
  C               G
I never knew just what it was
      D             G     C  G  D  G
And I guess I never will
