Lonnie Donegan - Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavour Chords

[Opening]
Oh [G]me, oh [D]my, oh [G]you
What[G]ever [D]shall I [G]do
[C]Halle[G]lujah, the [D]question is pe[G]culiar

[verse 2]
I’d [G]give a [D]lot of [G]dough
If [G]only [D]I could [G]know
The [A7]answer to my question, Is it yes or is it [D]no

[chorus]
Does your [G]chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D]bedpost overnight
[D]If your mother says don’t chew it
Do you [G]swallow it in spite

[chorus]
Can you [C]catch it on your [D]tonsils
Can you [G]heave it left and [C]right
Does your [G]chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D]bedpost over [G]night

[verse 3]
Here [G]comes a [D]blushing [G]bride
The [G]groom is [D]by her [G]side
[C]Up to the [G]altar
Just as [D]steady as Gibr[G]altar

[verse 4]
Why, the [G]groom has [D]got the [G]ring
And it’s [G]such a [D]pretty [G]thing
But [A7]as he slips it on her finger
The choir begins to [D]sing

[chorus]
Does your [G]chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D]bedpost overnight
[D]If your mother says don’t chew it
Do you [G]swallow it in spite

[chorus]
Can you [C]catch it on your [D]tonsils
Can you [G]heave it left and [C]right
Does your [G]chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D]bedpost over [G]night

[verse 5]
Now the [G]nations [D]rise as [G]one
To [G]send their [D]only [G]son
[C]Up to the [G]White House
Yes, the [D]nation’s only [G]White House

[Closing]
To [G]voice their [D]discon[G]tent
Un[G]to the [D]Presi[G]dent
They [A7]pawn the burning question
What has swept this conti[D]nent

[chorus]
Does your [G]chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D]bedpost overnight
[D]If your mother says don’t chew it
Do you [G]swallow it in spite

[chorus]
Can you [C]catch it on your [D]tonsils
Can you [G]heave it left and [C]right
Does your [G]chewing gum lose its flavour
On the [D]bedpost over [G]night
On the [A7]bedpost [D]over [G]night
