MARVELOUS TOY
TOM PAXTON
Capo: 3rd Fret play in "C"
Intro: [G - C - D - G]
G C G D
When I was just a wee little lad full of health and joy.
C G D
My father homeward came one night and gave to me a toy.
G C G D
A wonder to behold, it was with many colors bright.
C G D G
And the moment I laid eyes on it, It became my hearts delight.
Chorus:
G D C G
It went zip when it moved, Bop when it stopped, Whirr when it stood still
C G D G I never knew just what it was, And I guess I never will.
G C G D
The first time that I picked it up I had a big surprise.
C G D
For right on it's bottom were two big buttons that looked like big green eyes.
G C G D
I first pushed one and then the other, then I twisted it's lid.
C G D G
And when I sat it down again here's what it did:
-Chorus-
G C G D
It first marched right, then marched left, then marched under a chair.
C G D G
And when I looked where it had gone, it wasn't even there.
G C G D
I started to cry and my daddy laughed, for he knew that I would find
C G D G
When I turned around my marvelous toy chuggin' from behind.
-Chorus-
Now the years have gone by to quickly it seems, I have my own little boy,
And yesterday I gave to him my marvelous little toy
His eyes nearly popped right out of his head, he gave a squeal of glee.
Neither one of us know just what it is, but he loves it just like me
Chorus
