[ Предположительная тональность: G ] I believe this is an old 'scouting' song which originated from the American civil war?. Plenty of other lyric versions out there including some 'rude' ones!! Can be transposed to any key depending on what suits your voice. Chorus G C My eyes are dim I cannot see A D I have not bought my specs with me G C G D G I have not brought my specs with me Verse 1 G There was cheese cheese wafting on the breeze D G In the stores in the stores There was ham ham mixed up with the jam D G In the Quartermaster's Stores Chorus G C My eyes are dim I cannot see A D I have not bought my specs with me G C G D G I have not brought my specs with me Verse 2 G There was bread bread just like lumps of lead D G In the stores in the stores There were buns buns and bullets for the guns D G In the Quartermaster's Stores Chorus G C My eyes are dim I cannot see A D I have not bought my specs with me G C G D G I have not brought my specs with me Verse 3 G There were mice mice eating up the rice D G In the stores in the stores There were rats rats big as blooming cats D G In the Quartermaster's Stores Chorus G C My eyes are dim I cannot see A D I have not bought my specs with me G C G D G I have not brought my specs with me Verse 4 G There is meat meat meat you couldn't eat D G In the stores in the stores There were eggs eggs nearly growing legs D G In the Quartermaster's Stores Chorus G C My eyes are dim I cannot see A D I have not bought my specs with me G C G D G I have not brought my specs with me Verse 5 G There is beer beer that you can't get near D G In the stores in the stores There is rum rum for the general's tum D G In the Quartermaster's Stores Chorus G C My eyes are dim I cannot see A D I have not bought my specs with me G C G D G I have not brought my specs with me Verse 6 G There was cake cake cake you couldn't break D G In the stores in the stores There were flies flies feeding on the pies D G In the Quartermaster's Stores Chorus G C My eyes are dim I cannot see A D I have not bought my specs with me G C G D G I have not brought my specs with me
