In key of G slow intro.....jug band style....chords are GEmA7D7...and GD7CGEmA7D..........GD7GG7CGCGFsharpFEA7D7G.chorus

INTRO
My Emily was so good to me, but now she's gone forever.
She's run off with that cad young Smytheley-Jones,
And now I see them everywhere; it seems I'm just forgotten.
They pass me with their noses in the air.

VERSE 1...SPEED UP THE MUSIC
But since she's gone I've spent my time feeling rather rotten.
I'll take my Sopwith Camel for a spin,
And tonight I'm flying dangerously, a mission of the heart,
And over Smytheley-Jones's barbeque.

CHORUS
And there'll be trouble over Bridgwater tonight.
There's bound to be a beastly row alright.
There'll be hell to pay for sure, when I drop the horse manure
All over Smytheley-Jones tonight.

VERSE 2
The vicar will be at the do and so will all the gentry.
What a spiiffing wheeze, I'm bound to say.
They can't afford a scandal on their wedding day.
It's about time that he got one in the eye.

I've a sack of old hen feathers and 20 bags of flour.
I'll show those stuffy bounders how to fly.
And I've other scores to settle with young Smytheley-Jones.
The rotter's got it coming. Chocks away!

Repeats etc.
