Paul McCartney - Teddy Boy: chords

D
This is the story of a boy named Ted
        A         Am           Em         G A D
If his mother said, Ted be good, he would
D
She told him tales about his soldier dad
        A            Am           Em   G A B7 C#7 F#
But it made her sad, and she'd cry, Oh my

F#
Ted used to tell her he'd be twice as good
        C#                   C#m        B6    B7 C#7
And he knew he could, 'cause in his head, he said

Chorus:
F#7                B7
Mama don't worry, Teddy boy is here
E                    A
Taking good care of you
F#7                    B7
Mamma don't worry now Teddy is here
E              A         D    A D A
Teddy's gonna see you through

Then came the day she found herself a man
Teddy turned and ran, far away, okay
He couldn't stand to see his mother
in love with another man
He didn't know, oh no

He found a place where he could settle down
And from time to time, in his head he said

Chorus:
"Mommy don't worry, now teddy boy's here
Taking good care of you
Mommy don't worry, your teddy boy's here
Teddy's going to see you through"

And she said, "Teddy don't worry, now mommy is here
Taking good care of you
Teddy don't worry, your mommy is here
Mommy's going to see you through"

This is the story of a boy named Ted
If his mother said, "Ted, be good", he would
