D#
This is the story of a boy named Ted
        A#          A#m        Fm        G# A# D#
If his mother said, Ted be good, he would
She told him tales about his soldier dad
But it made her sad, and she'd cry, Oh my

G
Ted used to tell her he'd be twice as good
         D                   Dm         C6       C7 D7
And he knew he could, 'cause in his head, he said

Chorus:
G7                 C7
Mama don't worry, Teddy boy is here
F                    A#

G7                     C7
Mamma don't worry now Teddy is here
F              A#        D#  A# D# A#
Teddy's gonna see you through

Then came the day she found herself a man
Teddy turned and ran far away, OK
He couldn't stand to see his mother in love
With another man, he didn't know, oh no
He found a place where he could settle down
And from time to time, in his head, he said

Chorus:
Mama don't worry, now Teddy boy is here
Taking good care of you
Mamma don't worry now Teddy is here
Teddy's gonna see you through

And she said, Teddy don't worry, your mummy is here
Taking good care of you
Teddy don't worry now mummy is here
Mummy's gonna see you through

This is the story of a boy named Ted
If his mother said, Ted be good, he would
