[VERSE 1]
I [G]went into the chandler's shop some candles [D7]for to [G]buy,
I looked around the chandler's shop [A7]but no one did I [D]spy.
[G]I was disappointed and some [A7]angry words I s[D7]aid,
Then I h[G]eard the sound of a *Tap, Tap Tap* [D7]up above m[G]y head.
Oh, I he[G]ard the sound of a *Tap, Tap Tap* u[D7]p above my[G] head.

[VERSE 2]
We[G]ll I was slick and I was quick, and up the [D7]stairs I [G]sped,
And much to my surprise I found the [A7]chandler's wife in [D]bed;
[G]And with her was another man of [A7]most gigantic s[D7]ize,
And [G]they were having a *Tap, Tap Tap* [D7]right before my [G]eyes,
And [G]they were having a *Tap, Tap Tap* [D7]right before my [G]eyes,

[VERSE 3]
Wh[G]en the fun was over and done and the lady ra[D7]ised her [G]head,
She was quite surprised to find me s[A7]tanding by the [D7]bed.
[G]"If you will be discreet, my lad, if [A7]you would be so [D7]kind,
I'll [G]let you come up for some *Tap, Tap Tap* when[D7]ever you feel [G]inclined."
I'll [G]let you come up for some *Tap, Tap Tap* when[D7]ever you feel [G]inclined."

[VERSE 4]
So[G] , many a day and many a night when the chan[D7]dler wasn't [G]home,
To get myself some candles to the chan[A7]dler's shop I'd [D7]roam.
[G]But nary a one she gave to me, but [A7]gave to me inst[D7]ead,
A little[G] bit more of the *Tap, Tap Tap* to [D7]light my way to [G]bed.
A little[G] bit more of the *Tap, Tap Tap* to [D7]light my way to [G]bed.

[VERSE 5]
So[G] , all you married men take heed, if ever [D7]you come to [G]town,
If you must leave your woman alone, be [A7]sure to tie her [D7]down.
[G]Or, if you would be kind to her, just [A7]sit her on the [D7]floor,
And [G]give her so much of that *Tap, Tap Tap* she [D7]doesn't need any [G]more
And [G]give her so much of that *Tap, Tap Tap* she [D7]doesn't need any [G]more
