VERSE 1

G
One way system, smooth and 
commendable

D
Go by bus, they're highly dependable

    C
The swings in the park for the kids 
have won awards

Am                   D
The clean streets, acknowledged in 
the Lords

G
But what's a park if you can't see a
 linnet

Em
A timetable if your journey's 
infinite

Am
My bag's packed and I'm leaving in a
 minute

D
For what is Chatteris without you in
 it?

Riff A x2

G
Car crime's low, the gun crime's 
lower

D
The town hall band's CD, it's a 
grower

    C
You never hear of folk getting 
knocked on the bonce

Am                          
Although there was a drive by 
  D
shouting once

G
But there's a brass band everywhere

Em
And I don't drive, so I don't care

         Am
And as a nightingale sang in 
Berkeley Square

D
What's Chatteris if you're not 
there?

EDD LE 4

       G
Like a game-bird reserve short on 
pheasants

Em
Weavers' cottages devoid of tenants

  Am
A market town that lacks 
quintessence

D
That's Chatteris without your 
presence


VERSE 3

G
Three good butchers, two fine 
chandlers

   D
An indoor pool and a first class 
cake shop

C
OFSTED plaudits, envy of the fens

Am                D
Prick barriers at both ends

G
But what's Chatteris if you're not 
there?

Em
What's Chatteris if you're not 
there?

Am
What's Chatteris if you're not 
there?

D
What's Chatteris if you're not 
there?

G
What's Chatteris if you're not 
there?

E
What's Chatteris if you're not 
there?

  Am                D          G - 
I may as well be in Ely or St. Ives
