I believe the next to last line of the verse should be harmonized as follows: A C#7 D F# I'm her eighth old man, I'm 'Enery. with each chord getting 2 beats.

Sorry, I can't get this to line up correctly. Each of the chords, A, C#7, D and F# get two beats, on the words, eighth, man, Ene, and ry, respectively
