Verse 1
(G major) (C major) Oh, gather round me cricket fans
and join me in a (G major) toast
We'll sing a song of tribute
that will reach from coast to (C major) coast
Everybody loves a hero,
a (F major) champion of (C major) fame
So let's (G major) stand up Australia,
Rodney Marsh has made his (C major) name
So let's hear (F major) him from the mountaintop,
hear (C major) him from the stands
He's a (G major) good blue -eyes country boy
with (C major) more than a million fans
The won (F major) der of the century
(F minor) to (C major) play a cricket test
He's a (G major) champion wicket -keeper,
he's a hero from the (C major) West
He's the (G major) number one,
he's the son of a gun,
he's a hero from the (C major) West
We've been through all
his matches,
astounded at his skill
(G major) With his acrobatic catches
like that ball was standing still
(C major) As we stayed in consternation
and (F major) cheered him from the stands (C major)
And wondered (G major) at his magic touch
like he had magnetic hand (C major) s
He's had the batsmen trembling
and shaken down the sides
(G major) Just to see old Beck they're grinning,
seemed to hasten their demise
(C major) As they wilted from the hootin'
And the (F major) catcalls from the (C major) hill
If (G major) Lily doesn't get your hold back
She surely will (C major)
So let's (B flat major) hear (F major) him from
the mountaintop
Hear (C major) him from the stands
He's a (G major) good true blue
-moss country boy
With (C major) more than a million fans
The (F major) wonder of the centuries
An (F minor) d play (C major) a cricket test
He's a (G major) champion wicket -keeper,
he's a hero from the (C major) West
He's a (G major) number one,
he's the son of a gun,
he's a hero from the (C major) West
I guess if I were batting,
I'd be a nervous wreck (G major)
With Baggers Crouch behind me,
breathing down my (C major) neck
Yet if he were there I'd miss him,
with his (F major) somersaults and (C major) di ves
He brought (G major) a load of thunder cricket,
and kept the game alive (C major)
(B flat major) Solis, (F major) cheering from the mountaintop,
cheer (C major) ing from the stands
He's a (G major) group who blew us country,
boy,
with more (C major) than a million fans
The won (F major) der of the (F minor) cen tury,
the play (C major) er free to test
He's a (G major) champion wicket -keeper,
he's a hero from the (C major) West
He's the (G major) only wicket -keeper,
no epic or a streaker
He's a number one,
he's a son of a gun,
he's a hero from the (C major) West.
