*CAPO 3rd FRET*
(Original Key: Bb)
Intro:
E7 Am A7 D7, G C G
Verse 1:
G E7 Ddim D7
Now every year about July, when summer time comes round,
D7 G
There's lots and lots of people at the seaside to be found.
E7 Am
Some play golf or tennis; others like to take a rest,
A7 D A7 A7b5 D7
But here's the kind of exercise, that I en-joy the best;
Chorus 1:
G A7
When I go swimin' with the wimmin',
D7 Ddim D7 G G7
Eee, I do have a real good time.
C Edim G
Bobbing up and down in the water;
A7 D7
It comes just below my Mason Dixon line.
G G7 G+ C
To see the ladies do their ex-er-cises,
A7 D7
You wouldn't think that half of them were slimming.
B7 E7
And when the girls stand up to sneeze,
Am A7
You can see their housemaids knees.
D7 G C G
If you go swimmin' with the wimmin'.
Verse 2:
G E7 Ddim D7
Now even when I am at home and working day to day,
D7 G
I always do look forward to my half day holiday.
E7 Am
The people don't invite me out, they know my half day's fixed,
A7 D A7 A7b5 D7
I go out to the baths that day, be-cause the bathing's mixed.
Chorus 2:
G A7
When I go swimin' with the wimmin',
D7 Ddim D7 G G7
Eee, I do have a real good time.
C Edim G
Bobbing up and down in the water,
A7
With a pretty girl, whose name is Adeline.
G G7 G+ C
You ought to see her latest bath-ing costume;
A7 D7
It's nothing but a little bit of trimming.
B7 E7
And what I took to be her face,
Am A7
Turned out to be a different place,
D7 G C G
When I went swimmin' with the wimmin'.
Chorus 3:
G
One day I went in with some of my re-lations,
G7 G+ C
With some of my re-lations,
A7 D
And someone went and pushed my Uncle Jim in.
B7 E7
He came up gasping for his breath and shouted;
Am A7
And shouted; "what a lovely death,
D7 G C G
To die when swimmin', with the wimmin!'
Chorus 4:
G A7
Once I went swimmin' with the wimmin',
D7 Ddim D7 G G7
And I did feel a big soft thing.
C Edim G
A woman went and fainted in the water,
A7 D7
And where she disappeared it left a ring.
G G7 G+ C
So I jumped in with nearly all my clothes on,
A7 D7
And swam until my eyesight started dimming.
B7 E7
And after fighting for my life,
Am A7
I found I'd gone and saved the wife;
D7 G C G
So I've chucked swimmin' with the wimmin'!
