Cm                                Bb
Ah, Tom is young and Tom is bold, Tom is as bold 

as a knight of old.
        Cm                  Bb                    G   
but whenever he gets into a bit of a jam, there's nothing 
                     Cm
he won't do to get a Harry Rag.

CHORUS: 
Cm                    Bb
Harry Rag! Harry Rag! Do anything just to get a Harry Rag.
       Cm                     Bb
And he curses himself for the life he's led,
    G                              Cm                
and rolls himself a Harry Rag, and puts himself to bed.

#2.
Cm                                Bb
Ah, Tom's old Ma is a dyin' lass, soon they reckon she'll 

be pushin' up the grass.
        Cm                       Bb
And her bones might ache and her skin might sag,
G                                      Cm
still she's got the strength to have a Harry Rag. 

CHORUS: 
Cm                    Bb
Harry Rag! Harry Rag! Do anything just to get a Harry Rag.
        Cm                     Bb
And she curses herself for the life she's led,
    G                              Cm                
and rolls herself a Harry Rag, and puts herself to bed.

#3.
Cm                                       Bb
Ah, bless you taxman, bless you all, you may take some 
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/k/kinks/267614.html ]
but you'll never take it all.
       Cm               Bb
But if I give it all, I won't feel sad,
   G                          Cm
as long as I've got enough to buy a Harry Rag.

CHORUS: 
Cm                    Bb
Harry Rag! Harry Rag! Do anything just to get a Harry Rag.
      Cm                   Bb
And I curse myself for the life I've led,
      G                            Cm                
and I roll myself a Harry Rag, and put myself to bed.

#4.
Cm                                      Bb
Ah, the smart young ladies of the land, can't relax without 

a Harry in their hand.
         Cm                    Bb
And they light one up and they boast and brag,
G                       Cm
so content because they got a Harry Rag.

CHORUS: 
Cm                    Bb
Harry Rag! Harry Rag! Do anything just to get a Harry Rag.
         Cm                       Bb
And they curse themselves for the life they've led,
         G                                Cm                
and they roll themselves a Harry Rag, and put themselves to bed.

CHORUS: 
Cm                    Bb
Harry Rag! Harry Rag! Do anything just to get a Harry Rag.
      Cm                   Bb
And I curse myself for the life I've led,
G                                  Cm                
and I roll myself a Harry Rag, and put myself to bed.
