Intro:

B, B  A

Verse 1:

    B                           B  A
I'm partial to your abracadabra;
   G               D         E
En-raptured by the joy of it all.
   F#                           D#7            G#m
So stop me where you start, the cockles of his heart,
    D                C#7          B
The panties sends it right up the wall.

Verse 2:

B                                     B  A
 Please, please, stop it; it likes it,
G              D            E
 Tickles it to death either way.
      F#                     D#7                G#m
These lovely boots exist, to drive it round the twist;
    D              C#7       B
The call of nature must be o-beyed.

Chorus 1:

B          A         B       A     E7
 Glad it's over, but this is worse.
      B      A           B       A
Could hardly say, it had been co-erced.
G7                             F#7
 Stop it cos it likes it, it's worse.

Verse 3:

    B                           B  A
I'm partial to your abracadabra;
    G            D        E
The unforeseen e-rogenous zones.
F#                 D#7               G#m
 Stop, it insists; slap it with your wrists;
   D                 C#7        B
It likes it when you leave it a-lone.

Solo:

G, B  A, G  D  E, F#, D#7  G#m, D  C#7  B

Verse 4:

        B                     B  A
There's been a manifestation;
G               D          E
 Nature made it answer the call.
   F#                   D#7                  G#m
It simply can't resist, boots and pants like this;
D       C#7       B
 Abraca-dabra for all.

Chorus 2:

B          A         B       A     E7
 Glad it's over, but this is worse.
B        A     B       A
 Roll it over; too per-verse,
G7                             F#7
 Stop it cos it likes it, it's worse.

Coda:

    B                           B  A
I'm partial to your abracadabra,
    B                           B  A
I'm partial to your abracadabra.
    B                           B  A
I'm partial to your abracadabra,
    B                           B  A
I'm partial to your abracadabra.
