Marvelous Toy Melanie
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C G D G
When I was just a [D]little girl
[G]Full of health and [D]joy
One [C]Christmas morning [G]I received
A [A7]marvellous little [D]toy
A [G]wonder to be[D]hold it was
With [G]many colours [C]bright
And the moment I laid [G]eyes on it
It be[A7]came my heart's de[D]light
CHORUS:
It went "[G]Zip" when it moved
"[D]Pop" when it stopped
"[G]Whirr" when it stood [C]still
I never knew just [G]what it was
And I [D]guess I never [G]will[C] [G] [D] [G]
The first time that I [D]picked it up
I [G]had a big sur[D]prise
'Cause [C]right on the bottom were [G]two big buttons
That [A7]looked like big green [D]eyes
I [G]first pushed one and [D]then the other
And [G]then I pushed its [C]lid
And when I set it [G]down again
[A7]This is what it [D]did:
CHORUS:
It went "[G]Zip" when it moved
"[D]Pop" when it stopped
"[G]Whirr" when it stood [C]still
I never knew just [G]what it was
And I [D]guess I never [G]will[C] [G] [D] [G]
It first marched left, and [D]then marched right
And [G]then went under a [D]chair
And [C]when I looked where [G]it had gone
It [A7]wasn't even [D]there
I [G]started to cry, my [D]daddy laughed
He [G]knew that I would [C]find
When I turned around my [G]marvellous toy
A?[A7]chugging from be[D]hind
CHORUS:
It went "[G]Zip" when it moved
"[D]Pop" when it stopped
"[G]Whirr" when it stood [C]still
I never knew just [G]what it was
And I [D]guess I never [G]will[C] [G] [D] [G]
INSTRUMENTAL: (## same as verse ##)
[D] [G] [D] [C] [G] [A7] [D] [G] [D] [G] [C] [G] [A7] [G]
The years have gone by too [D]quickly it seems
I [G]have my own little [D]boy
And [C]yesterday I [G]gave to him
My [A7]marvellous little [D]toy
His [G]eyes nearly popped right out of his [D]head
He [G]gave a squeal of [C]glee
And neither one of us knows just [G]what it is
But he [A7]loves it just like [D]me
CHORUS:
It still goes "[G]Zip" when it moves
"[D]Pop" when it stops
"[G]Whirr" when it stands [C]still
I never knew just [G]what it was
And I [D]guess I never [G]will
I [C]never knew just [G]what it was
And I [D]guess I never [G]will [C] [G] [D] [G]
