G
well grab a chair and keep your money
C G
oh you know there ʼ s no guarantees
G
well i’ve told you once before
A D
big legged? women make me sneeze
G
and i ʼ ll kick you out the door
C A
oh if you would only lie
G E
and they ʼ ll come crashing though the wall
A D G
till the minute that you die

G
well pour a drink or three
C G
and maybe we can all sleep for a while
G
well i’ve told you once before
A D
i love your innocent smile
G
living ʼ s much too easy
C A
to be dead would be a bore
G E
well you swear that you ʼ re alive
A D G
but i’ve seen your kind before

D
so steal the watch from off my wrist
C G
oh and shake me by the hand
G
we could disappear for days
A D
and they wouldn ʼ t understand
G
gypsy blood will get you far
C A
though it’s far away from me
G E
look me up when you get home
C G
and then maybe then we’ll see

G
well tear a hole in my brown shoes
C G
we could all sleep for a while
G
well i love your pretty webbed feet
A D
though they have never been in style
G
well i’ve told you once before
C A
that you could break my heart
G E
well i ʼ ve seen you and you around
A D G
but i can’t tell you apart

D
though they ʼ ll hunt you like a dog
C G
well they wont take you alive
G
coz you’ve made them piles of money
A D
stacked up twenty stories high
G
and the boys in every bar
C A
well they’ll miss you when you gone
G E
you can tell a heady tale
C G
and we’ll both keep screamin on

G C G
so if you listen very carefully about right now
G A D
you can probably hear a lawnmower outside in the garden .
G C A
so not only have you got a free song ,
G E A D G
but you’ve got a lawnmower in the back garden!
