TITLE: I Got It from Agnes
Lyrics and Chords


[Capo 3]

I love my friends, and they love me
We're just as close as we can be
And just because we really care
Whatever we get, we share

/ G - F - / B7 - Em - / Eb - G# B7 / Eb - - - /

I got it from Agnes
She got it from Jim
We all agree it must have been
Louise who gave it to him
She got it from Harry
Who got it from Marie
And everybody knows that Marie
Got it from me

/ G - / C G / D7 G / A7 D7 / 
   / G - / B7 Em / G Em / A7 D7 G D7 /

Giles got it from Daphne
She got it from Joan
Who picked it up in County Cork
A-kissin' the Blarney Stone
Pierre gave it to Sheila
Who must have brought it there
He got it from Francois and Jacques
Haha, Lucky Pierre

Max got it from Edith
Who gets it every spring
She got it from her Daddy
Who just gives her everything
She then gave it to Daniel
Whose spaniel has it now
Our dentist even got it
And we're still wondering how

Ah, but I got it from Agnes
Or maybe it was Sue
Or Millie or Billie or Gillie or Willie
It doesn't matter who
It might have been at the club
Or at the pub, or in the loo
And if you will be my friend
Then I might...(Mind you, I said "might")...
Give it to you

... / A7 - Cmaj7 - / D7 G /
