Swerving The Checkatrade

F    F7    F    F7    F    F7    F    F7

[Verse 1]
  F
I heard you walking down our street
  Dm
Emphatic boots on massive feet
  Bb            Gm                C7
Instinctively I knew what would ensue:
    F                A
I‘d have to strap on my guitar
    Dm              A
And tell the people near and far
     Bb                  C7              F     C7
“I’d like to swerve the Checkatrade with you”.

[Chorus]
F                         Dm
 Swerving the Checkatrade, swerving the Checkatrade
Bb            Gm               C7
 Swerving the Checkatrade with you
   F               A
My heart is like a hand grenade
Continúa después del anuncio
   Dm                   Bb
My head feels like it’s been waylaid
Gm            C7               F    C7
 Swerving the Checkatrade with you.

[Verse 2]
    F
I’d followed you for half a mile
    Dm
And in what seemed like quite a while
  Bb             Gm               C7
I found a way in which to tell it true:
      F              A
Oh, I like a pint, I like a brawl
  Dm               A
I like a scone but most of all
    Bb                 C7               F    C7
I’d like to swerve the Checkatrade with you.

[Chorus]
     F                         Dm
Yeah, swerving the Checkatrade, swerving the Checkatrade
Bb         Gm              C7
 So we may get to bill and coo
    F                  A
I’d weighed up all the pro’s and con’s
   Dm                Bb
Of watching th’under twenty-ones
Gm            C7               F    C7
 Swerving the Checkatrade with you.

[Otro]
    F            A
Oh, let me gaze upon your curves
  Dm               Bb
Instead of Ipswich Town reserves
Gm            C7               F    A
 Swerving the Checkatrade with you……
Gm            C7               F    A
 Swerving the Checkatrade with you……
Gm            C7               F
 Swerving the Checkatrade with you.
