[INTRO]
(trumpets)

[VERSE 1]
The [A]toy shop door is [E]locked up tight
And [A]everything is [E]quiet for the night
When [A]suddenly
The [E]clock strikes twelve
The [Bm]fun's be[E]gun

[CHORUS]
The [A]dolls are in their [E]best arrayed
There's [A]going to be a [E]wonderful parade
Hark [A]to the drum
Oh, [E]here they come
Cries [Bm]every[E]one [A]

[POST-CHORUS]
[A]Hear them all cheering
[A]Now they are nearing
There's the captain [E]stiff as starch
Bayonet's flashing, [E]Music is crashing
As the wooden [A]soldiers march

[VERSE 2]
[A]Sabres a-clinking
[A]Soldiers a-winking
At each pretty [Dbm]little maid
[Dbm]Here they come, here they come
[A]Here they come, [Dbm]here they come
Wooden soldiers [Bm]on [E]parade
