G C D7 G Snooker Loopy, nuts are we; we're all snooker, loo-py. Verse 1: G D7 G Now ol' Milo, as we all know's, got loadsa dappa suits. D7 G London bred and he keeps his head 'though he's got Italian roots. A E A E-motional, but he keeps his cool, 'till he reaches the finals. Bm F# Bm D And whether he wins, or whether he don't, "I always bite me eye-balls". Verse 2: G D7 G Now our friend Den; hours he spent, down the snooker hall. On the old green baize, his mates seem amazed, D7 G At his skills with a snooker ball. A E A And them long shots, he never ever got, why? the old mind boggles. Bm F# Bm D But nowadays, he pots the lot, "cos I wear these gog-gles". Chorus 2: G C D7 G Snooker Loopy, nuts are we; me and him and them and me.

Bm F#m Bm D I'll celebrate; I'll buy another eight, "hair-brushes, for me bar-net". Verse 4: G D7 G Now old Willy Thorne; his hair's all gone, and his mates all take the rise. D7 G His opponent said; "cover up his head, 'cos it's shining in my eyes". A When the light shines down, on his bare crown, E A It's a cert, he's gonna walk it, Bm It's just not fair giving off that glare; F#m Bm D "Per-haps I ought to chalk it".
