Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Ask[G] me how[D] do I feel
Ask me now [C]that we're cosy
and clingin'
Well, sir, all I can say
Is if [Bbdim]I were a [Bb]bell,
[A]I'd be [D]ringin'[G]
[C]From the moment we [Bb]kissed tonight
[Ddim]That's the w[C]ay I've just gotta beh[Am]ave
[A]Boy, if I [Em]were a lamp,
[A]I'd light[D]
Or if I were a banner, I'd [G]wave
[D]

[Verse 2]
Ask me how do I feel
Little me [G]with my quiet [C]upbringing
Well, sir, all I can say
Is if [Bbdim]I were a [C]gate, I[A]'d
be [D]swinging
And if [C]I were a watch
I'd start [D]popping my [C]springs[Bb]
[A]Or if [D]I were a bell
I'd go ding [G]dong,
ding [C]dong ding
[D]
[D]

[Verse 3]
[C]Yes,[D][C][Edim][E][A][D]
I knew my [C]morale [F]would crack
[Eaug]From the[Fm] wonderf[C]ul way that you looked
[D]Boy, if I w[Em]ere a duck, I'd quack
[D]Or if I were [G]a goose, I[C]'d be c[G]ooked[C]
[D]Ask me

[Verse 4]
how do I feel
Ask me now that we're [Dm]fondly
[Ddim]caressin[Fm]g[C]
Well, if I were a salad
I [C]know [Eaug]I'd be [A]splashing my dre[D]ssing[G]
Or [C]if I were a season,
[F]I'd surely [Adim]be spring[C][D]
[C]Or [A]if [D]I were a gate, I w[Dm]ould swing
Have a fling [Bb]almost any old thing
[F]Or if [Dm]I we[D]re a bell
I'd go [G]ding dong, ding [G]dong
Ding [C]dong, ding dong,
ding dong, ding, ding dong
