Theodore Harmonica Tab

Words and Music by Vincent Bryan

-6 7 -6 7 -6 7 -6 6
I’ve travelled all around the world,
King Edward is a grand old man,
When Russia fought the Japanese,
-5 6 -5(#?) 6 -7 -4
I’ve sailed on ev’ry sea;
As all the world admits;
We thought they’d never cease.
4 5 -4(#?) 5 -4 5 -4(#?) 5
Met ev’ry King and potentate,
But what chance would King Edward stand
A certain party stopped the war
4 -5 5 -5 -6 7
including old John D.
with Jeffries or with Fitz?
and brought ’em both to peace.
-6 7 -6 7 -6 7 -6 6 -5 6 -5(#?) 6 -7 -4
In ev’ry corner of the Earth they know King Edward’s fame,
I know a man can stand off Jeff with upper-cuts and hooks;
When they awarded him a prize for stopping Russia’s wars;
-4 6 -5(#?) 6 -6 6 -4 -4′ -4 -6 6 -5(#?)6 7
But there’s a ruler greater still; no doubt you’ve heard his name;
He has no use for Lords or Earls, but he can use his “dukes:”
They found him at the White House fighting seven Senators:

(Chorus)

-6 7 -6 -5 -6 6 -5(#?) 6 -7 -4
It’s Theodore, The peaceful Theodore;
-4 5 -4(#) 5 -4 5 -4(#) 5
Of all the rulers great or small,
King Ed. things Teddy is all right,
The Senate thought he was a joke,
4 -5 5 -5 5 -5 -6 7
He is the greatest of them all.
God save the King if he should fight
He stopped their graft and now they’re broke.
-6 7 -6 -5 -6 6 6 -6 -6 -7
He’s first in peace, He’s first of all in war,
With Theodore, The man the Yanks adore;
On salary, They’ll have to live once more;
4 -5 -5 6 -6 -7 -6 6
He’s in demand in Yankee land,
He’d lick the King in any ring,
Their wills they’ve made they’re all afraid,
-8 7 -8 7 -8 7 -8 -6 6 -5
Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! for Theodore.

*** Extra lyrics ***

#4:
Not long ago the railroads owned the whole United States,
Their rates were high to farmers, but a trust could get rebates.
Who stopped this crime of freight rebates among the railroad men?
Who fixed it so the railroads carry people now and then?

Our Theodore, the peaceful Theodore,
Since he exposed the railroad’s crime
The Erie hasn’t run on time.
The midnight train don’t start till half past four;
All trains are late since he fixed rates;
Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! for Theodore.

#5:

#6:
This Theodore’s a hunter, too, in spite of all his cares;
He’s hunted mountain lions, and he’s hunted Bulls and Bears.
The only failure he has had, since hunting he began;
Was when he hunted Congress through, to find an honest man.

Our Theodore, the peaceful Theodore,
He is a hunting President,
He chased a Cuban regiment.
Don’t make him mad, he’s awful when he’s sore;
He even scares the Teddy Bears,
Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! for Theodore.

*** Notes ***
Song is not in the key of F. Symbols in parenthesis like
4(#?)
Indicate confusion over how to get these notes on harmonica. They
sound fine played as natural notes, however. If you want you can
transpose this song to play in its intended key on a non-C harp.
