Verse 1
Sitting (G major)
in (D major) Grandpa's (G major) chair,
thinking about (C major) his (D major) whiskers,
(C major) sandpaper kisses (D major) on his cheek. (G major) (D major)
He (G major) would nev (D major) er budge, (G major)
listening to (C major) the (D major) cricket
He (C major) couldn't bother Grand (D major) pa for a (G major) week
And (E minor) if he's up in (D major) heaven,
I'm (E minor) sure he's still tuned (D major) in
Prob (C major) ably having a beer
with Wally Grout (D major)
Going (E minor) crook about the (D major) link,
and (E minor) questioning our (D major) strength
That's (E minor) not the way to
(D major) get a pony out (G major)
When television (D major) came, (G major)
he could watch (C major) the game
(D major) But we (C major) couldn't drag him
(D major) from the radi (G major) o
From (D major) the (G major) pencil on (D major) a book, (G major)
he didn't (C major) want to (D major) look
The (C major) stubborn old fella did
(D major) n't want to know (G major)
It's (E minor) on the radio,
(D major) that's (E minor) all you need to know (D major)
Concen (C major) trate completely on the sound (D major)
The (E minor) at mosphere is (D major) great,
imagin (E minor) ation mate. (D major)
(E minor) I can see the seagulls. (D major) (E minor)
(D major) Yes, (E minor) I can see the
(D major) seagulls on the ground.
(G major) So the ashes battle con (D major) tinues,
(G major) Michael Clarke settles into (C major) his stance,
(D major) oblivious to (C major) an arching seagull
that (D major) swifts past him,
(G major) heading for some rubbish
that's (D major) blown off of the (G major) ground. (D major)
(G major) Here comes broad, angular, (C major)
(D major) intense and quick, (C major)
an (D major) d Clarke duck (G major) s the bouncer.
Well he had aboard (D major) a (G major) collie,
everywhere (C major) he (D major) went,
his (C major) job to keep an (D major) eye on the sheep (G major) .
(D major) But (G major) I have (D major) a hunch, (G major)
when Cricket was (C major) at lunch, (D major)
(C major) Grant Park had his (D major) sheep in his (G major) sleep.
And (E minor) if he's up in (D major) heaven,
I'm (E minor) sure he's still tuning,
(D major) prob (C major) ably having a beer
with Wally Grant. (D major)
Going (E minor) crook about the (D major) length,
and (E minor) questioning our (D major) strength,
that's (E minor) not the way to
(D major) get the ponies (G major) out.
It's (E minor) on the radio,
(D major) that's (E minor) all you need to (D major) know
Concen (C major) trate completely on the sounds (D major)
The at (E minor) mosphere is (D major) great,
imagin (E minor) ation mate
(D major) I (E minor) can see the (D major) seagulls (E minor)
(D major) Yes, (E minor) I can see the seagulls (D major)
Yes, (E minor) (D major) (E minor) I can see the seagulls (D major)
on the ground (G major)
