Pick Yourself Up Ukulele by John Edmond

Chords with lyrics

Key: A

Verse 1:
   G             C      G
In a hot dusty playground of a small country school
   G           D
Where nobody's heard of the Queensbury rules
C            G
A skinny young boy cried tears of defeat
  A7              D7 D D7 D6 D
And they made two rivers down the dust of his cheeks.


Verse 2:
   G           C      G
So he ran home to Mother and told her his woes;
    G            D
How the bully had licked him and bloodied his nose.
  C              G
She said to him "Son, you might be quite small
    A7          D7     D D7 D6 D
But the bigger they come the harder they fall.

Chorus:
  G          G
So pick yourself up and dust yourself down
D
Battles ain't won lying down on the ground.
C     D    G      Em
Never say die and always come back
    C    G     D     G
'Cause dynamite comes in a very small pack".

Verse 3:
   G            C      G
On a hot dusty battleground serving his land
G         D
That boy was mortally wounded young man.
  C             G
He said to himself "Man you ain't dead yet!"
  A7             D7     D D7 D6 D
He remembered the words that his mother had said.

Chorus:
  G          G
So pick yourself up and dust yourself down
D
Battles ain't won lying down on the ground.
C     D    G      Em
Never say die and always come back
    C    G     D     G
'Cause dynamite comes in a very small pack".
