Oh By Jingo!Oh By Gee-Lew Brown, Albert Von Tilzer (Acoustic) A novelty song from the 1919 Broadway play ?Linger Longer Lettie?. Not sure, but original might be in G. I think these chords are easier for a novice player. You can play around with the transpose button on the left, or capo, but it sounds best to me starting in a sharp chord in any case. In 2/4 timing. Capo I
Em In the land of Am San Domingo Em Lived a girl called Am Oh! By Jingo Em Ta da Am da da da C7 da da da Em Umpa, umpa, umpa, umpa Em From the fields and Am from the marshes Em Came the young and Am old by goshes, Em Ta da Am da da da C7 da da da Em Umpa, umpa, umpa, umpa

Version from Jeeves & Wooster is same but with a couple of rhyming phrases changed: We will build for you a hut You will be our fav'rite nut We'll have a lot of little Oh By Jingoes Pink and white just like flamingoes and: We will build for you a hut You will be our fav'rite nut We'll have a lot of little Oh By jones-es Dress them up in clogs and clothes-es Billy Murray had another chorus which you can find on line, but I don't remember it offhand. Have fun with it!
