GERTCHA ! CHAS + DAVE
Play it status quo style on guitar
Some lyrics are guessed at ( probably cockney slang )
(C) well theres a (C)word that i dont understand
i hear it everyday from my old man
it maybe cockney rhyming slang , it aint in no school (G) book
he says it (C)every time that he gets mad , a regular caution is my old dad
rub the (F) old man up the wrong way and (G) bet your life youll hear him say
( run down from C = C,Bb,A,Ab )
( run back up to B = G,A,Bb,B )
gertch u cow son , gertcha
(C)gertcha - when the kids are swinging on the gate
(F)gertcha - when the paper boy is half an hour late
(C)gertcha when the pigeons are peckin at his seeds
(F)gertcha when the barber starts (F#dim) diggin up his weeds
(octave run up on bass) = G,A,Bb,B C,D,Eb,E
gertch u cow son , gertcha
(F)barstool preaching (D) thats the old mans (G) game
(rest of song follows same chord progressions)
now the old man was a desert rat - khaki shorts and a khaki hat
how me mother could have fancied that - i just dont know
but when the enemy came in sight - they gave up without a fight
cos they rubbed him up the wrong way - and this is what they heard him say
gertch u cow son , gertcha
gertcha - when my rock and roll records wake him up
gertch - when the poles knocked england out the cup
gertch when the kids are banging on the door
gertcha- when the barman wont serve him any more
gertch u cow son , gertcha
barstool preaching hes always been the same
solo ( chords as verse , do it chuck berry style )
gertch u cow son , gertcha
gertcha when the dog left a message on the step
gertcha lester piggot when he lost it by a neck
gertcha when me brother kicked the toes out of his shoes
gertcha when the houseflies are flying round the room
gertch u cow son , gertcha
barstool preaching hes always been the same
gertcha
when me mother says he cant go down the pup
sisters boyfriend put sister up the club
at the tomcats - when theyre kickin up a din
Tottenham hotspurs couldnt get one in
When me mother locks him out the flat
When its raining and he cant find his hat
In the morning when his motor car wont go
Next door neighbour when he wont give him a tow
