Mad Tom Of Bedlam Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]To s[F]ee m[Am]ad tom of bedlam,
Ten thousand miles I've travelled
Mad maudlin goes on dirty toes
To save her shoes from gravel
[Dm]So well [Am]that we

[Verse 2]
[Dm]sing bonnie [Am]boys,
bonnie mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonnie
For they all go bare,
and they live in the air
And they want no drink nor money

[Verse 3]
I went down to satan's [Am]kitchen
For to break my fast one morning
And there I got souls piping hot
All on the spit a- turning

[Verse 4]
So well that [Am]we sing sing bonnie boys,
bonnie mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonnie
For they all go bare, and they live in the air
And they want no drink nor money

[Verse 5]
A spirit hot as [Am]lightening
Did on that journey guide me
The sun did shake and the pale
moon quake
Wherever they did spy me

[Verse 6]
Yet it's well that [Am]we sing bonnie boys,
bonnie mad boys
Bed[Dm]lam b[Am]oys [Dm]are bonnie
[Am]For they all go bare,
and they live in the air
And they want no drink nor

[Interlude 1]
money
[Am][Dm][Am][Dm]

[Verse 7]
My staff has [Dm]murdered giant[Am]s
And my pack a long knife carries
For the slice mince pies from
chil[Dm]dren's thighs,
[Am]From which to feed the faeries

[Verse 8]
So [Am]well that we sing bonnie boys,
bonnie mad boys
Bedlam boys [Dm]are [Am]bonnie
For they all go bare, and they live in the air
And they want no drink nor money

[Verse 9]
Tonight I'll [Am]go a murdering
The man in the moon to a powder
His dog I'll shake and his staff I'll break

[Verse 10]
And I'll howl a wee bit louder
[Am]So well that we sing bonnie boys,
bonnie mad boys
Bedlam boys are bon[Dm]nie
For they [Am]all go bare,
and they live in the air
And they want [Bb]no d[Am]rink nor m[G#]oney[Am][Dm]
[Am][Bb][Am][Bb][F]

[Interlude 2]
[Dm][Am][Dm]
[Am][Dm]

[Verse 11]
to see [Am]mad tom of bedlam,
Ten thousand [Dm]miles I've travelled.
Mad maudlin goes on dirty toes,
[Am]To save her shoes from gravel

[Verse 12]
[Am]so well that we sing bonnie boys,
bonnie mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonnie
For they all go bare, and they live in the air
And they want no drink nor money
