Key: :[D] (w: Gilbert O'Sullivan)
INTRO: [D] [Bm] [G] [A]
VERSE 1:
It's
[D] over now; you've
[Bm] had your fun
Get
[Abm7] up them stairs, go on, quickly
[C#] don't run
Take
[C#m7] off your shoes; the
[F#] both of you's
[Bm] And leave them
[Bm/A#] down outside the
[Bm/A] door
[Bm/Ab]
Turn the
[G] landing light, off, no wait, leave it on
It might
[G7] make the night, that much
[E] easier to be gone
And in the
[D] morning who'll be
[Am] wide awake
And eating
[Bm] snow flakes oh as opposed to
[G] those flakes
(We [D] will), we will,
(we [A] will), we will
VERSE 2:
That
[D] afternoon we
[Bm] spend the day
With
[Abm7] uncle Frank, remember? and his
[C#] wife auntie Mae
Well
[C#m7] do you know since then
[F#] I've recieved
Up-to-four
[Bm] letters all of which
[Bm/A#] repeat the
[Bm/A] same
[Bm/Ab]
They say
[G] thrilled to bits, can't believe you came
We re-
[G7]-lived it both over
[E] time and time again
And if there's
[D] ever a chance or
[Am] even half
You might be
[Bm] our way, would you promise
[G] to stay
(We [D] will), we will,
(we [A] will), we will
BRIDGE:
Oh its not
[G] easy pre-
[A]-tending
that you
[C#m7] cannot
[F#] hear
once you've
[Bm] suffered the reflections with-
[D]-in
It's no
[F#] use in an
[G] ending
to pro-
[Bm]-claim from the start that the
[D] moral of the stories to be-
[A]-gin.
VERSE 3:
On
[D] Sunday next if the
[Bm] weather holds
We'll
[Abm7] have that game, but I bagsy-being-
[C#]-in-goal
Not be-
[C#m7]-cause I'm good, or be-
[F#]-cause I think I should
It's just that well at
[Bm] my age I
[Bm/A#] think standing
[Bm/A] still
[Bm/Ab]
Would
[G] really suit me best, do we all agree?
Hands up
[G7] those who do, hands up
[E] those who don't
I see well in that
[D] case, will we please be
[Am] kind enough
if not on
[Bm] Sunday, to go to mass on
[G] Monday
(We [D] will), we will,
(we [A] will), we will
Yeah, yeah, we
[D open] will
