Take A Cutting

Take a Cutting by Norma O'Hara Murphy This is in the Key of A, however I prefer it using G Chords with a capo for key shifting purposes. Feel free to transpose using the site to change to open A chords. All the verses are played using a single slow strum per chord, the chorus' are a DD UDU strum pattern (Roughly). Capo on the 2nd Fret Intro: G (With Harmonica) C We?re at Flemington for the Melbourne Cup D G And the race is well in hand G C When all of a sudden a cheer goes up D G From the members in the stand G C I strain to get a better look D G To see what is the cause G C But Auntie?s seen the roses (Gasp) D G And she?s got the secateurs

Chorus: C G To take a cutting, take a cutting D Oh that looks really nice let?s get a cutting C G It just might grow, you never know D G I?ll take a little cutting G C Now we?ve often tried to tell her D G That it really isn?t right G C Sneaking into gardens D G in the middle of the night G C But she just says, ?Don?t worry, D G It?s really not that bad. G C D G I always keep my secateurs hidden in my bag.? Repeat Chorus: C G To take a cutting, take a cutting D Oh that looks really nice let?s get a cutting C G It just might grow, you never know D G I?ll take a little cutting G C Now we?re on holidays in the national park D G We?re packing up to leave G C When the ranger comes a running D G And he?s looking pretty peeved G C You must come and get your auntie D G Before I call the law G C Cause she?s out among the tree ferns D G With a bloody great chainsaw Repeat Chorus: C G To take a cutting, take a cutting D Oh that looks really nice let?s get a cutting C G It just might grow, you never know D G I?ll take a little cutting C G We?ll take a cutting, take a cutting D Oh that looks really nice let?s get a cutting C G It just might grow, you never know D G I?ll take a little cutting C G It just might grow, you never know D G I?ll take a little cutting Outro: C D G
