[Intro] Em Cadd9 Em Cadd9 Em Cadd9 Em Cadd9 [Verse 1]
    Em                              C                           Em      Cadd9
Whenever I hear a news report of an avalanche involving British skiers

  Em                              C                                    Em       Cadd9
I  listen in with interest in the hope that I might catch the name Ben Shepherd

D                      Am     C                       D
 Little wonder that we parted, I’m always otherwise engaged

Em                      C       Am                     D
 So many waters still uncharted; so much guilt to be assuaged.
Em Cadd9 Em Cadd9 [Verse 2]
Em                        C
If I were a carpenter I’d doubtless have a hammer

        Em                           Cadd9
And I’d hammer in the morning on the door of Alan Sugar.

D                                      Am
 Alright mate, I’m just working on the property opposite

                                  C
And I notice you have a couple of slates o... oh, it’s you!

D                                                                     Em
Any road, I’ve got some tiles in the van if you want me to get up there

                         C
Got a load of kiln-dried logs too if you’re interested?

                Am
I’m thinking of sponsoring a gorilla at Bristol Zoo, what d’ya reckon?

D
 D’you need any facecloths?
[Instr] G D Em C D G D Em C D Em Cadd9 Em Cadd9 [Verse 3]
Em                            C    Em                       Cadd9
 So you went and changed your name, honeymooned beside Lake Placid

Em                 C    Em                     Cadd9
 And to my eternal shame I went to Legoland on acid

D                                           Am
 Over my right eye there was a Kraft cheese slice

                                           C
Over my left eye there was no Kraft cheese slice

                                           D
Scrawled across my chest was the name of a band I’d joined called “Private Sponge and the Others”

Em                                             C
 And I was clambering over things and crashing into things

                                 Am
Before finally coming to an end amongst a jumble of bricks

                           D
Which had up until my intervention represented the keep at Windsor Castle
[Instr] G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 F D F D [Coda]
G                      D
 I still love you Lucy-Ann

Em                   C           D D7
 And I’m not a rock; nor am I an island

G                      D
 Try to picture if you can

Em              C            D
