Bless Em All The Long and The Short and The Tall Chords
George Formby, Jr 1940 (Fred Godfrey 1917)

Capo I

[A] [A7] [D]
They [D]say there's a troopship just leaving Bombay, bound for old Blighty [A]shore
Heavily laden with time expired men, [A7]bound for the land they a[D]dore.
There's [D]many an airman just finishing his time, there's many a twerp signing [A]on.
You'll get no pro[A7]motion this [A]side of the [A7]ocean, so [A]cheer up my [A7]lads, Bless 'em [D]All.

Bless em [D]All, Bless em All, the long and the [D7]short and the [G]tall
[A]Bless all the sergeants and W. O. ones,
[E7]Bless all the [E]corprals and [A]their blinkin [A7]sons,
Cos were s[D]aying goodbye to them all, as [D7]back to their billets they cr[G]awl
You'll [A]get no pro[A7]motion this [A]side of the [A7]ocean, so [A]cheer up my [A7]lads, Bless 'em [D]All

They [D]say if you work hard you'll get better pay
We've heard all that be[A]fore

Clean up your buttons and polish your boots
[A7]Scrub out the barrack room [D]floor
There's [D]many a rookie has taken it in, hook line and sinker an '[A]all
You'll [A]get no pro[A7]motion this [A]side of the [A7]ocean, so [A]cheer up my [A7]lads, Bless em A[D]ll

Bless em [D]All, Bless em All, the long and the [D7]short and the [G]tall
[A]Bless all the sergeants and W. O. ones,
[E7]Bless all the [E]corprals and [A]their blinkin [A7]sons,
Cos were s[D]aying goodbye to them all, as [D7]back to their billets they cr[G]awl
You'll [A]get no pro[A7]motion this [A]side of the [A7]ocean, so [A]cheer up my [A7]lads, Bless em A[D]ll

Now they [D]say that the Sergeant's a very nice chap, oh what a tale to [A]tell.
Ask him for leave on a Saturday night and [A7]he'll pay your fare home as [D]well.
There's [D]many an airman has blighted his life through writing rude words on the [A]wall
You'll [A]get no pro[A7]motion this [A]side of the [A7]ocean, so [A]cheer up my [A7]lads, Bless em A[D]ll

Bless em [D]All, Bless em All, the long and the [D7]short and the [G]tall
[A]Bless all the sergeants and W. O. ones,
[E7]Bless all the [E]corprals and [A]their blinkin [A7]sons,
Cos were s[D]aying goodbye to them all, as [D7]back to their billets they cr[G]awl
You'll [A]get no pro[A7]motion this [A]side of the [A7]ocean, so [A]cheer up my [A7]lads, Bless em A[D]ll

[D]Nobody knows what a [G]twerp you have [Gm]been, so [E]cheer up my [A7]lads, bless em [D]all
