INTRO: [F] [Dm] [A#] [C]
VERSE 1:
It's
[F] over now; you've
[Dm] had your fun
Get
[Bm7] up them stairs, go on, quickly
[E] don't run
Take
[Em7] off your shoes; the
[A] both of you's
[Dm] And leave them
[Dm/C#] down outside the
[Dm/C] door
[Dm/B]
Turn the
[A#] landing light, off, no wait, leave it on
It might
[A#7] make the night, that much
[G] easier to be gone
And in the
[F] morning who'll be
[Cm] wide awake
And eating
[Dm] snow flakes oh as opposed to
[A#] those flakes
(We [F] will), we will,
(we [C] will), we will
VERSE 2:
That
[F] afternoon we
[Dm] spend the day
With
[Bm7] uncle Frank, remember? and his
[E] wife auntie Mae
Well
[Em7] do you know since then
[A] I've recieved
Up-to-four
[Dm] letters all of which
[Dm/C#] repeat the
[Dm/C] same
[Dm/B]
They say
[A#] thrilled to bits, can't believe you came
We re-
[A#7]-lived it both over
[G] time and time again
And if there's
[F] ever a chance or
[Cm] even half
You might be
[Dm] our way, would you promise
[A#] to stay
(We [F] will), we will,
(we [C] will), we will
BRIDGE:
Oh its not
[A#] easy pre-
[C]-tending
that you
[Em7] cannot
[A] hear
once you've
[Dm] suffered the reflections with-
[F]-in
It's no
[A] use in an
[A#] ending
to pro-
[Dm]-claim from the start that the
[F] moral of the stories to be-
[C]-gin.
VERSE 3:
On
[F] Sunday next if the
[Dm] weather holds
We'll
[Bm7] have that game, but I bagsy-being-
[E]-in-goal
Not be-
[Em7]-cause I'm good, or be-
[A]-cause I think I should
It's just that well at
[Dm] my age I
[Dm/C#] think standing
[Dm/C] still
[Dm/B]
Would
[A#] really suit me best, do we all agree?
Hands up
[A#7] those who do, hands up
[G] those who don't
I see well in that
[F] case, will we please be
[Cm] kind enough
if not on
[Dm] Sunday, to go to mass on
[A#] Monday
(We [F] will), we will,
(we [C] will), we will
Yeah, yeah, we
[F open] will
