Well let me tell you, Ladies and Gents 
            C                     F 
I enjoyed myself to my heart's content 
            C                F 
I could not follow the procession  
                   C             F 
But I was there to see the coronation 
             C7           F 
I was there (at the coronation) 
             C7           F 
I was there (at the coronation) 


               C                F 
I took up my position at Marble Arch 
                 C                    F 
From the night before just to see the march  
                   C                     F 
The night wind was blowing, freezing and cold 
              C                      F 
But I held my ground like a young Creole 
             C7           F 
I was there (at the coronation) 
             C7           F 
I was there (at the coronation) 


         C                   F 
My stoic stand soon paid dividends 
               C                 F 
For I saw them coming around the bend 
          C                    F 
Then I perceived in all her glory 
           C                   F 
The golden coach with Her Majesty 
               C7           F 
She was there (at the coronation) 
             C7           F 
I was there (at the coronation)
