Tenterfield Saddler

    F                     C       
The late George Woolnough, worked 
                   Dm
on High Street and lived on Manners
Bb                  F       
Fifty- two years he sat on his 
                          C
verandah, and made his saddles
    Bb                         
And if you had questions about 
C/Bb                Am7    C/D
sheep or flowers or dogs
                   C11             
You just asked the saddler, he 
          C7           C7sus      
lived without sin, they're 
            F
building a library for him


[Chorus]
F
Time is a traveller, Tenterfield 
saddler
C11              C7
Turn your head
C11                              
Ride again jackaroo, think I see 
Gm7      F
kangaroo up ahead


[Verse 2]
    F                             
The son of George Woollnough went 
C                       Dm
off and got married and had a war 
baby
       Bb                          
Though something was wrong and it's
 F/A                     C
 easier to drink than go crazy
    Bb                            
And if there were questions about 
C                  Am7    Dm7
why the end was so sad
                   C11           
Well George had no answers, about 
       C7   C7sus              F
why a son, ever has need of a gun

Gm7       C11
Turn your head
Gm7                  C11         
Ride again jackaroo, think I see 
         F           Cm7
kangaroo up ahead


[Verse 3]
    F                           C 
The grandson of George has been 
             A7/C#           Dm
all around the world and lives no 
special place
Bb                           F   
Changed his last name and he 
                   C/E
married a girl with an interesting 
face
     Bb                    C  
He'd almost forgotten them both 
                              Am7  
because of the life that he leads
  Dm7

                    C11            
There's nowhere for George and his 
C7             C11          Dm/A
library or the son with his gun 
     Gm7
to belong
  C11          F
Except in this song


[Chorus]

ground emu up ahead
