In the continuing saga of "Keeping two chevrons apart", my quest to record as much Half Man Half Biscuit as possible until YouTube bans me, I've recorded "Totnes Bickering Fair", from "CSI: Ambleside"
Lyrics/chords
F(10th fret) Dm
So much for your journey of self-discovery
Bb A
You had to cut it short, forgot your credit card
C Dm
The decree nisi came through this morning
G C
And I just called to say
F
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
Dm
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
Bb
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
C E#
And with the money saved take ‘em to the zoo
F Dm
You quoted Goldman incorrectly as we strolled
Bb A
Your stab at solar heating just left me cold
C Dm
I want a sun tan, not Vashti Bunyan
G C
Therefore henceforth
F
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
Dm
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
Bb
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
C F
And with the money saved take ‘em to the zoo
C Dm
That donkey which you vowed to rescue done gone died
G C
So on its behalf…
F
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
Dm
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
Bb
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
C F
And with the money saved take ‘em to the zoo
F
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
Dm
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
Bb
I’m gonna feed our children non-organic food
C A
And with the money saved take ‘em to the zoo
Bb C F
Not long now before lollipop men are called Darren
I was initially unsure about the Dm, so take that with a pinch of salt. There's also a little guitar solo before "not long now" which obviously I couldn't do in a single-take video, but I reckon a full mix might follow later, in which case I'll publish a tab for that too.
