The sun had been up for a couple of hours,
D MajorD      C/DC/D  D MajorD   A augmentedA    D MajorD  G/DG/D A augmentedA
Covered the ground with a layer of gold.
D MajorD      C/DC/D   D MajorD  A augmentedA      D MajorD   G/DG/D
Spirits were high and the raining had stopped,
A augmentedA  D MajorD     C/DC/D D MajorD A augmentedA
The larder was low
D MajorD          F/CF/C
But boy that wasn’t all.

Verse:

Out on the road in the direction of Perth,
D MajorD       C/DC/D   D MajorD  A augmentedA      D MajorD  G/DG/D
Backwards and forwards in a circle they went.
   A augmentedA D MajorD     C/DC/D D MajorD  A augmentedA    D MajorD  G/DG/D
Found a city half open and ready to greet,
A augmentedA   D MajorD     C/DC/D  D MajorD A augmentedA
Those conquering heroes
D MajorD           F/CF/C
With blisters on their feet.

Chorus:
F/GF/G E minorEm F/GF/G A minorAm F/GF/G E minorEm F/GF/G


F/GF/G     E minorEm F/GF/G
See the Stewart all dressed up
A minorAm    F/GF/G       E minorEm   F/GF/G A minorAm
He’s got eyes in the back of his head.
Bb/CBb/C A minorAm  F#m7F#m7
Who came in a cockleshell boat
   F#m6F#m6
That could only just float,
F#sus4F#sus4        F#F#
Couldn’t even lift a sword.
Fsus4Fsus4      FF
Dressed too fine and smelling of wine.
 Bb/FBb/F FF Ab/F Eb/FEb/F F/GF/G  E minorEm F/GF/G       A minorAm F/GF/G E minorEm F/GF/G
          Daddy   you’ve got to go!
F/GF/G       E minorEm  F/GF/G
Here comes the bishop all dressed up
A minorAm   F/GF/G            E minorEm  F/GF/G A minorAm
He’s gonna bless you if you’re ready to pay.
Bb/CBb/C  A minorAm  Bb/CBb/C        A minorAm
One wave of his funny old stick,
Bb/CBb/C      C majorC Bb/CBb/C     A minorAm
There’s a band of light across your eyes.

Verse:
D MajorD    C/DC/D    D MajorD  A augmentedA    D MajorD  G/DG/D
Waited a week still they hadn’t appeared,
A augmentedA  D MajorD    C/DC/D  D MajorD  A augmentedA    D MajorD  G/DG/D
That glorious timing that everyone feared.
  A augmentedA    D MajorD    C/DC/D   D MajorD  A augmentedA     D MajorD  G/DG/D
So they’re riding along on the crest of a wave,
A augmentedA    D MajorD     C/DC/D  D MajorD A augmentedA
They’re headed for London
D MajorD           F/CF/C
And that will be their grave.
       C majorC

Never seems too keen

In a house of dreams
G6/AG6/A     G6/FG6/F  G6/EG6/E
Flying from a hillside
Cmaj9/GCmaj9/G    D/ED/E
Beckoning the trees
       Ebadd9Ebadd9
A augmentedA sailboat’s awning
     Eb/DEb/D Cadd9Cadd9 Bb/CBb/C
Mimicking the breeze


Pre-Chorus:
A minorAm      F/AF/A   G/AG/A
I’m fighting gravity falling
A minorAm    F/AF/A      G/AG/A
My Daddy won’t let them get me
A minorAm       F/AF/A     G/AG/A
A augmentedA voice screams seems to be calling
A minorAm       F/AF/A     G/AG/A
The face turns features are burning.
