Chain Up The Swings

C G Am C G C

[Verse One]
C          G       Am
Six days I will be sober
C              G           Am
On the seventh I'll take a drink
C                 G             Am
Sit by the window with a tin of beer
C              G            C
And watch them chain up the swings

[Verse Two]
C          G               Am
And I will think about the power of love
C          G     C
A most agreeable rule
C                                G        Am
And wonder what on earth they're thinking of
C        G     Am
Who only disapprove

[Refrain]
C                       F
And every Sunday I will celebrate my life
G
I'll dance to Runrig and I'll kiss my wife
C                          F
Like the old song says bad news spreads like wildfire
G                 C
Good news travels slow

[Verse Three]
C                                        G         Am
Let them gather up their brows and their old wives tales
F                        G
Tweed and dashes and the spikes and flails
G        C                         F
Let them bow down in homage to the Prince of Wales
G                    C
Me, I'm going to get pished

[Refrain]
C                       F
And every Sunday I will celebrate my life
G
I'll dance to Mac-Talla and I will kiss my wife
C                          F
Like the old song says bad news spreads like wildfire
G                 C
Good news travels slow

[Verse Four]
C          G       Am
Six days I will be sober
C              G           Am
On the seventh I'll take a drink
C                 G             Am
Sit by the window with a tin of beer
C              G            C
And watch them chain up the swings
