Tonart: D major
Verse 1
D
A
Well, the British Museum in London
A
to which I went at the age of 21,
D
because you can't go under 21
to this reading room.
Not because the books that are there,
though they are there,
A
they're all locked up in a cupboard somewhere,
D
but there are also so many people who want to go,
and I went for serious
medieval research.
A
And I noticed there are various
quietly reading away,
and among them a
number of quite pretty girls
also reading away, scholars too, I suppose.
A 'r 20 mlynedd yn ôl,
A
D
i mi fynd yn ôl i 'r lle yn a,
eto, 'r ysgolion yn ychydig fachach,
A
D
yn edrych arnyn 'n ac mae newydd yno,
A
D
nad oedden 'n deimlo eu sylweddoli,
ond rwy meddwl, efallai.
Yn ogystal hyn,
mae 'r cŵn o 'r Amgueddfeydd Brydeinig,
Wals.
I was a young man
A
in a place called the British Museum.
D
There were plenty of women
A
D
but somehow I just didn't see them.
G
Now I am ninety an d weary
of books of knowledge,
A
D
I think I have plenty.
G
At last I'm beginning to look at the girls,
A
And there're most of them
If I polish my glasses,
A
D
And some are exceedingly pretty.
G
It occurs to me that I have wasted my life,
A
And there goes the bell.
