Verse 1
G
Sitting
D
G
in Grandpa's chair,
C
D
thinking about his whiskers,
C
D
G
D
sandpaper kisses on his cheek.
G
D
G
He would never budge,
C
D
listening to the cricket
C
D
G
He couldn't bother Grandpa for a week
Em
D
And if he's up in heaven,
Em
D
I'm sure he's still tuned in
C
Probably having a beer
D
with Wally Grout
Em
D
Going crook about the link,
Em
D
and questioning our strength
Em
That's not the way to
D
G
get a pony out
D
G
When television came,
C
he could watch the game
D
C
But we couldn't drag him
D
G
from the radio
D
G
D
G
From the pencil on a book,
C
D
he didn't want to look
C
The stubborn old fella did
D
G
n't want to know
Em
It's on the radio,
D
Em
D
that's all you need to know
C
D
Concentrate completely on the sound
Em
D
The at mosphere is great,
Em
D
imagination mate.
Em
D
Em
I can see the seagulls.
D
Em
Yes, I can see the
D
seagulls on the ground.
G
D
So the ashes battle continues,
G
C
Michael Clarke settles into his stance,
D
C
oblivious to an arching seagull
D
that swifts past him,
G
heading for some rubbish
D
G
D
that's blown off of the ground.
G
C
Here comes broad, angular,
D
C
intense and quick,
D
G
and Clarke ducks the bouncer.
D
G
Well he had aboard a collie,
C
D
everywhere he went,
C
D
G
his job to keep an eye on the sheep.
D
G
D
G
But I have a hunch,
C
D
when Cricket was at lunch,
C
D
G
Grant Park had his sheep in his sleep.
Em
D
And if he's up in heaven,
Em
I'm sure he's still tuning,
D
C
probably having a beer
D
with Wally Grant.
Em
D
Going crook about the length,
Em
D
and questioning our strength,
Em
that's not the way to
D
G
get the ponies out.
Em
It's on the radio,
D
Em
D
that's all you need to know
C
D
Concentrate completely on the sounds
Em
D
The atmosphere is great,
Em
imagination mate
D
Em
D
Em
I can see the seagulls
D
Em
D
Yes, I can see the seagulls
Em
D
Em
D
Yes, I can see the seagulls
G
on the ground
You
