Chords with lyrics
Robyn Hitchcock
Point It At Gran
A minorAm FF
Alone and pointless by her mouldering self
C majorC DmDm
She stares at the tin of sardines on the shelf
A minorAm E MajorE
By a paraffin lamp in a dingy brown room
A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm
Gran sits and broods in the thickening gloom
DmDm A minorAm
It's a gloom that congeals; it's so greasy and thick
E MajorE A minorAm
You could cut into strips and roast on a stick
DmDm A minorAm
And hand round to friends but there's nobody there
A minorAm E MajorE
Just Gran, on her own, in a miserable chair
E MajorE
So don't point it at me
A minorAm
Point it at Gran
FF
She needs it more than I do
C majorC
And more than Princess Anne
DmDm
When Princess Anne's eighty-two
A minorAm
And living in a one room flat in Hackney
E MajorE
Maybe she could do with a bit as well
E MajorE
Don't point it at me
A minorAm
Don't point it at yourself
FF
Just point it at Gran
C majorC
And the sardines on the shelf
DmDm
Don't point it at me
A minorAm
I've had more than enough
E MajorE
Just point it at Gran
She could do with plenty of stuff
E MajorE
Don't point it at me
A minorAm
Point it at Gran
FF
Well, it could be a firehose
C majorC
Or it could be a flan
DmDm
Now some people are happy
A minorAm
And some people are bored
E MajorE
And some people are left
And completely ignored
FF A minorAm E MajorE
