Verse 1
Am C F A G Cm G# D# F#m B D We cut all his eyes we did, squeezed the lids and down the grog into hole he F G# A# E G B A G D Bm skip with crow eyed smile to the blissful into craggy dress and we will G Bm G C#m F# D A A C#m F# praise him we will praise him off his pins, clear him of all sins Bm C# C#/C C#/A# A# A#/A A#/G A# A#/A Oh my! We sang with strength to carry on, encouraged him to sing along, we A#/G F# sang of all the world and praised him hooray! B A D A F G# Gm C A# D# A# F# A G#m Stay alive to live or without, and he is down, all over and out
(Then repeat the intro once instead of twice, then into the 2nd verse)
Am C F A G Watch us bang on shoulders as tall and as gold as Cm G# D# F#m Feely hand and finger around all we B D F G# A# E G B A G D And look to see if we care if he is heaven sent or Hell bent but Bm G Bm G C#m F# D A A C#m F# We will praise him we will praise him all away praise him all a - way Bm C# C#/C C#/A# A# A#/A A#/G A# A#/A My arms chancing and you will no way live long enough to repay me A#/G F# I praise you anyway always
(Then into the really long bit. It's the same chord progression over and over, but each
moving up in semitones)
B A D A F G# Gm C A# D# A# F# A G#m Wipes last with brown and pale, he dirty boy he gone all stale C# B E B G A# Am D C F C And down the stair and hallway crawling, and pig and toast and kitchen G# B A#m brawling D# C# F# C# A C Bm E D G D A# C# Cm Night-time days are all weekless, alarm charm he's all up and dressed F D# G# D# B D C#m F# E A E C D# Dm He dirty boy, he bathroom dances, and check his jam and breathe on glass A B A# A C# E E A D G D# E Spiny brings all, off "Mr. Regal Jelly" in hand, warm feel and suck re - gal A D G D G B A C# B man suck bland, suck bland a - way and he a sleepy cow-eyed dog he treading E A C F# D B soft sand Kiss and stroke and praise him, stroke A E A F D F C F and praise him All worth is kiss not how to cleanse and D F D F C F D fowl, preserver of sick somehow, don't worry now B A# F C# E G#m C# Hold his mouth and stop him breathing over and out
(The outro plays those final three chords over and over, the time signature changes,
just a case of playing it over and over and a pattern starts emerging)
Such an epic tune, hope you enjoy it.
