 (Oh doctor, I'm in trouble.)
               A
Well, goodness gracious me.

(For every time a certain man,is standing next to me.) Mmm?
D                                                G
(A flush comes to my face and my pulse begins to race.)
                                          E                A7         D

G                                 A
(Boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom.)
                        D
Well, goodness gracious me.

[Verse 2]
D
How often does this happen?
                     A
When did the trouble start?
                                                             D
You see, my stethoscope is bobbing, to the throbbing of your heart.
                                             G
(What kind of man is he, to create this allergy?)
                    D                     E                A7               D
(It goes boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom, boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom.) Oh!
G                      A
(Boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom.)
                        D
Well, goodness gracious me.

[Chorus 1]
E
   From New Delhi to Darjeeling,I have done my share of healing.
         Em                          E
And I've never yet been beaten or outbo-o-o-oxed.
                     Em             E
I remember that with one jab, of my needle in the Punjab.
      Em
How I cleared up beriberi and the dreaded dysentery.
E           A                          D
But your complaint has got me really foxed. (Oh..)

[Verse 3]
D
(Oh doctor, touch my fingers.)
               A
Well, goodness gracious me.
                                                D
(You may be very clever, but however, can't you see?)
                                                   G
(My heart beats much too much, at a certain tender touch.)
                               D                      E          A7         D
(It goes boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom, boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom.) I like it!
G                      D
(Boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom.)
      N.C.
Well, goodness gracious me.

[Bridge]
D
Can I see your tongue? (Aaah.)
D
Nothing the matter with it, put it away please.
D                              E
(Maybe it's my back.) Maybe it is.
E
(Shall I lie down?) Yes. (Ahhh...)

[Chorus 2]
D
My initial diagnosis, rules out measles and thrombosis.
         Em               E
Sleeping sickness and, as far as I can te-ell:
E
Influenza, inflammation, whooping cough and night starvation.
           Em
And you'll be so glad to hear, that both your eyeballs are so clear.
           E          A7                 D
That I can positively swear that you are well, ja-ja, ja-ja-ja-ja.

[Verse 4]
D                                                      A
(Put two and two together.) Four. (If you have eyes to see.) Yes.
                                                          D
(The face that makes my pulses race, is right in front of me.)
                                                       G
Oh, there is nothing I can do, for my heart is jumping too.)
G                                  D                      E          A          D
(Oh,) -We go boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom, boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom.-
D
-Boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom.-

[Outro]
A
(Goodness gracious.) How audacious! (Goodness gracious.) How flirtatious!
                           D
(Goodness gracious.) It is me. (It is you?) Ah aha, I'm sorry, it is us.  -Ahhh!-
