[Verse]

 G                                  C              G
I went into the chandler's shop some candles for to buy,
  G                                            C     D
I looked around the chandler's shop but no one did I spy.
  G                          C             D
I was disappointed and some angry words I said,
G                             G F# G            C      D       G
Then I heard the sound of a (knock,knock,knock) right above my head. (2x)

 G                                     C              G
Well I was slick and I was quick, and up the stairs I sped,
    G                               C                  D
And much to my surprise I found the chandler's wife in bed;
  G                             C             D
And with her was another man of most gigantic size,
    G                    G F# G            C      D       G
And they were having a (knock,knock,knock)  right before my eyes. (2x)

[Verse]

G                                      C               G
When the fun was over and done and the lady raised her head,
 G                                  C              D
She was quite surprised to find me standing by the bed.
 G                                C                  D
"If you will be discreet, my lad, if you would be so kind,
G                              G F# G             C            D    G
I'll let you come up for some (knock,knock,knock) whenever you feel inclined." (2x)

[Verse]

G                                      C                G
Now, all you married men take heed, if ever you come to town,
G                                        C               D
If you should leave your woman alone, be sure to tie her down.
 G                                    C               D
Or, if you would be kind to her, just sit her on that floor,
G                              G F# G             C                D    G
Mind give her so much of that (knock,knock,knock) she doesn't need any more. 
G                              G F# G             C                D    G
Mind give her so much of that (knock,knock,knock) she doesn't need any more.
