Goldwatch blues

Am E

Am

1.I went up for my interview on the fourth day of July,

E

Am

personnel man he questioned me, till I nearly died.

E Am

Made me fill in forms, until I shook with fear,

E Am

about the coour of my toilet-room and if my cousin`s queer.

E

Am

Here`s your goldwatch and the shackles for your chain,

E Am

and a piece of paper, saying that you left here sane.

E Am

And if you have a son, who wants a good career,

Am

just get him to sign on the dotted line, and work for fifty years.

Am E Am

2. He asked me how many, jobs I`ve had before,

E

Am

he nearly had a heart-attack, when I answered : four!

E Am

Four jobs in twenty years, that can never be,

E Am

we only take a man, who`ll work until he dies. + CHORUS

Am

E A

3. He took me outside to where the gravestones stand in line.

E

Am

This is where we bury them, quick stone and in lime.

E

Am

And if you come to wok for us, this you must agree,

E

Am

that if you`re going to die, please do it during tea-break. + CHORUS

Am E

Am

4.This story that you`ve heard, you may think rather queer,

E Am

but it`s the truth, you`d be surprised to hear.

E Am

I didn`t really want, a job upon the board,

E Am

I jus wanted to take a broom, and sweep the bloody floor. + CHORUS
