Intro:

G, G  F

Verse 1:

    G
I'm partial,
                     G  F
To your abracadabra;
    Eb
I'm raptured,
       Bb        C 
By the joy of it all.
   D
So stop me where you start,
    B7             Em
The cockles of his heart,
    Bb
The panties sends it,
A7            G
 Right up the wall.

Verse 2:

G
 Please, please,
Stop it;
            G  F
It likes it,
Eb
 Tickles it,
   Bb          C 
To death either way.
      D
These lovely boots exist,
   B7                 Em
To drive it round the twist,
    Bb
The call of nature,
A7         G
 Must be o-beyed.

Chorus 1:

G          F
 Glad it's over,
    G       F      C7
But this is worse.
      G      F
Could hardly say,
       G       F
It had been co-erced.
Eb7
 Stop it cos it likes it,
     D7
It's worse.

Verse 3:

    G
I'm partial,
                     G  F
To your abracadabra;
    Eb
The unforeseen,
  Bb       C
E-rogenous zones.
D
 Stop, it insists,
B7                 Em
 Slap it with your wrists,
   Bb
It likes it when you,
A7          G
 Leave it a-lone.

Verse 4:

        G
There's been,
                 G  F
A manifestation;
Eb
 Nature made it,
Bb          C
 Answer the call.
   D
It simply can't resist,
B7                    Em
 Boots and pants like this,
Bb      A7        G
 Abraca-dabra for all.

G          F
 Glad it's over,
    G       F      C7
But this is worse.

 Roll it over,
G        F
 Too per-verse,

 Stop it cos it likes it,
     D7
It's worse.

To your abracadabra,

I'm partial,

To your abracadabra,

To your abracadabra.
