A BICYCLE BUILT FOR TWO “Daisy Bell”
By Harry Dacre
Donald Duck, IBM 704, HAL 9000
Key: G

 -5   5* -5 -4  -3  3   -3 -2* -1
There is a flow-er with-in my heart,
-3  -1  -5  -4
Dai-sy, Dai-sy!
 -5   5* -5  -4  -3 3  -3   -2*  -1
Plant-ed one day by a glanc-ing dart,
  3   -5 3 -2*-1 -3  3
Plant-ed by Dai-sy Bell!
 -4   4  -4   -3   3
Wheth-er she loves me
-2* -4   3   2
Or loves me not,
 -5    4    -4   -3  -3* -4
Some-times it's hard to tell;
-4  4 -4  -3   3  -2*  -4   3   2
Yet I am long-ing to share the lot 
-4  -3  6   5* -4  -3  -5
Of beau-ti-ful Dai-sy Bell!

-5  -4   3  -1
Dai-sy, Dai-sy,
 2  -2*  3   2   3   -1
Give me your an-swer do!
-3   -5  -4  3
I'm half cra-zy,
 2  -2*  3   -3  -4 -3
All for the love of you!
-4   4   -4 -3 -5  -4 -3-4-3 3
It won't be a styl-ish mar-riage,
-3  -4  3   2   3  2   -1
I can't af-ford a car-riage
-1    3     -4   -3   3  -4   -3
But you'll look sweet on the seat
-4 4 -5 -4  3   -3   -1   3
Of a bi-cy-cle built for two.

We will go 'tandem'
As man and wife,
Daisy, Daisy!
'Peddling' away
Down the road of life,
I and my Daisy Bell!
When the road's dark
We can both despise
P'licemen and 'lamps' as well;
There are 'bright lights’
In the dazzling eyes
Of beautiful Daisy Bell!

Daisy, Daisy,
Give me your answer do!
I'm half crazy,
All for the love of you!
It won't be a stylish marriage,
I can't afford a carriage
But you'll look sweet upon the seat
Of a bicycle made for two.

I will stand by you
In 'weal' or woe,
Daisy, Daisy!
You'll be the bell(e)
Which I'll ring you know!
Sweet little Daisy Bell!
You'll take the 'lead'
In each 'trip' we take,
Then if I don't do well,
I will permit you to
Use the brake,
My beautiful Daisy Bell!
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
