Harry Rag

(Bm) 
Ah, Tom will show and Tom will smoke 
(A) 
Tom is as bold as a knight of old 
(Bm) (A) 
But whenever he gets into a bit of a jam 
(F#) (Bm) 
There‘s nothing he won‘t do to get a Harry Rag 
 
CHORUS: 
(Bm) (A) 
Harry Rag! Harry Rag! Do anything just to get a Harry Rag 
(Bm) (A) 
And he curses himself for the life he‘s led 
(F#) 
And rolls himself a Harry Rag 
(Bm) (Bm) (F#) (Bm) (F#) (Bm) 
And puts himself to bed 
 
Ah, Tom‘s old ma is a dyin‘ lass 
Soon they reckon she‘ll be pushin‘ up the grass 
And her bones might take and her skin might sag 
Still she‘s got the strength to have a Harry Rag 
 
CHORUS: 
Harry Rag! Harry Rag! Do anything just to get a Harry Rag 
And she curses herself for the life she‘s led 
And rolls herself a Harry Rag 
And puts herself to bed 
 
Ah, bless you taxman, bless you all 
You may take some but you‘ll never take it all 
But if I give it all I won‘t feel sad 
As long as I‘ve got enough to buy a Harry Rag 
 
CHORUS: 
Harry Rag! Harry Rag! Do anything just to get a Harry Rag 
And I curse myself for the life IAnd roll meself a Harry Rag 
And put myself to bed 
 
Ah, the smart young ladies of the land 
Can‘t relax without a Harry in their hand 
And they light one up and they boast and brag 
So content because they got a Harry Rag 
 
CHORUS: 
Harry Rag! Harry Rag! Do anything just to get a Harry Rag 
And they light one up and they boast and brag 
So content because they got a Harry Rag 
 
Harry Rag! Harry Rag! IAnd I curse myself for the life IAnd rolls meself 
a Harry Rag 
And puts meself to bed
