A D
[Verse]
D A7 Will you ever stop singing Chad, old mate, do you think you might retire? D Lie right back in grandpa's chair in front of the open fire G When you reach the 70's, Chad, I thought that might be it D A7 D You're just like a young bloke champing at the bit.
[Verse]
D A7 I'll never retire John, old mate, this stage I'll never leave D I'll push out another song, old mate, as long as I can breathe G As long as there's a sunrise, I'll always tune me throat D A7 D As long as the fish are biting, mate, I'll never leave the boat
[Chorus]
G D Ah that's what it's like to be a Country Balladeer G D It'll never up and leave you lonely G D There's nothing new about it it's like old Uluru A7 D So don't you go changing, mate, I'll thump you if you do.
[Verse]
D A7 Do you think you'll drop the guitar, John, leave it in the case D Head into the hills and disappear without a trace G If you reach a hundred albums, mate, they'll tell you that's enough D A7 D No you'll be just the same as me and I don't give a stuff
[Verse]
D A7 You've hit the nail on the head, Chad, you've got me to a tee D I'm part of the guitar and it's a part of me G No matter where I go, Chad, I've got it in the ute D A7 D Call me one-track minded I don't give a hoot
[Chorus]
G D Ah that's what it's like to be a Country Balladeer G D It'll never up and leave you lonely G D There's nothing new about it it's like old Uluru A7 D So don't you go changing, mate, I'll thump you if you do.
[Chorus]
G D Ah that's what it's like to be a Country Balladeer G D It'll never up and leave you lonely G D There's nothing new about it it's like old Uluru A7 D So don't you go changing, mate, I'll thump you if you do.
[Outro]
