Verse 1
   C                    G
We had to move 'cos the rent we couldn't pay
    D                               G
The moving van came round just after dark
          C                         G
There was me and my old man shoving things inside the van
           D                           G
Which we'd often done before let me remark
   C                                     G
We packed all that could be packed n the van and that's a fact
       D                             G
And we got inside all we could get inside
        D                               G
Then we packed all we could pack on the tail-board at the back
           Am         D              G                 
Till there wasn't any room for me to ride

Chorus
C               D
My old man said follow the van
    G                        C
And don't dilly dally on the way
G                         Am
Off went the cart with me 'ome packed in it
D                       G
I walked behind with me old cock linnet
      C           G       C           G
But I dillied and dallied dallied and dillied
C                D                   G
Lost the van and don't know where to roam
  C              A               Dm       G
I stopped on the way to have the old half-quartern
      C          G      C
Now I can't find my way 'ome

Verse 2
  C                            G
I gave a helping hand with the marble wash-handstand
    D                                G   
And straight we wasn't getting on so bad
       C                            G
All at once the carman bloke had an accident and broke
         D                           G
Well the nicest bit of china that we had
       C                          G
You'll understand of course I was cross about the loss
        D                     G
Same as any other human woman would
      D                            G
But I soon got over that what with two-out and a chat
          Am                 D                  G
'Cos it's little things like that what does you good

Chorus
C               D
My old man said follow the van
    G                        C
And don't dilly dally on the way
G                         Am
Off went the cart with me 'ome packed in it
D                       G
I walked behind with me old cock linnet
      C           G       C           G
But I dillied and dallied dallied and dillied
C                D                   G
Lost the van and don't know where to roam
    C              A          Dm       G
Now who's going to put up the old iron bedstead
     C          G      C
If I can't find my way 'ome

Verse 3
   C                          G
Oh I'm in such a mess I don't know the new address 
      D                              G
Don't even know the blessed neighbourhood
      C                          G
And I feel as if I might have to stay out all the night
    D                             G
And that ain't going to do me any good
  C                               G
I don't make no complaint but I'm coming over faint
       D                              G
What I want now is a good substantial feed
      C                     G
And I sorta kinda feel if I don't soon have a meal
        Am              D             G
I shall have to rob the linnet of his seed

Chorus 
C               D
My old man said follow the van
    G                        C
And don't dilly dally on the way
G                         Am
Off went the cart with me 'ome packed in it
D                       G
I walked behind with me old cock linnet
      C           G       C           G
But I dillied and dallied dallied and dillied
C                D                   G
Lost the van and don't know where to roam
          C         A                 Dm       G
You can't trust the specials like the old-time coppers
         C          G        C   G C
When you can't find your way 'ome
