The closing theme music is the same as the opening one except for a very clumsily done edit where the 2nd line of the verse was deleted to fit the shorter timing of the TV end credits.                              To hear the theme tune copy and paste this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZCPkHCf8O8 = x02210     = x32010    = x02020   = 133211    = x32310     = x24442   = xx0232     = 320033    = x21202                             E7 = 020100 N.C. = No chords ======================================================= [Intro] Here we come walking down the street We get the funniest looks from everyone we meet!
