[Em] [Am] [A] [G] I think [Gbm] people might get bored of playing songs.
[Ab] [Fm]
I've [G] been playing this song [E] a [Bbm] really long [A] time.
And I [B] got a good friend [Em] [G] that is [N] here tonight.
I used to play this song in Holland, in the Netherlands.
And he [Ab] used to sell bracelets.
[G] And I'd play this song around [Eb] and around.
I didn't [Ab] actually play as much as I should have because I was a little [A] afraid.
[Am]
But it was a good [G] song because it just went around [Gb] and around [Am] and around.
[A]
It's the same chords.
And I haven't stopped playing it.
It's been like [Ab] nearly 200 years.
