Half Man Half Biscuit – The Announcement (Guitar)

   A
He used to wear Trespass and shop at the Aldi

D
Now he’s the joker in the clubhouse at Caldy

    A
His hair was receding; his face had descended

         D
Now he’s been up to Rodney Street and had it all mended

   A
He used to walk home with a chop suey roll

D
Now he’s in Sheldrake’s devouring his soul

    A
His mate’s got a six-berth in Kinmel Bay

            D
And for the last week in August that’s where he’d stay

    A
But now it’s a fortnight in tropical climes

D
Raising of lager and here’s to the times

      A
But a worried demeanour as I went through his turnstile

    D
Was clarified later when I heard the announcement:
