Chords for Beccy Cole - Treehouse

I'll head _ [G] back to the new record and you might like to buy it.
How many [N] more shopping days till Christmas?
It's available in the shop.
_ [Em]
And this is a song that I wrote.
I always find, [G] like the way Christmas, the true stories in country music make the best [D#] songs, you know.
Because if you're trying [E] to fake it and go, oh this happened, [G] it didn't really happen,
this happened, it didn't really happen, you can just tell.
But [D] if something actually really happened, you can tell by the words.
[G] And this is a true story.
In fact, it came to me via the medium of gossip.
_ _ I like everybody else [Gm] enjoying a little bit of gossip.
And it was like a friend of a friend happened to, [G] and nobody's actually ever come up to me and claimed this story.
So that was me.
And perhaps when I tell you the story you'll understand why.
[G] But it was, I guess she went out and had, she's a married lady with children, she's lovely.
And she went out and had a bit of a girls night out.
And she got absolutely blabbered and had 11 to 7 wines.
And she got talking to a fella that probably shouldn't have [F#] been talking to.
And they [A] extended their conversation out in the car park. _
And then they extended the conversation in his car.
And then they, it's funny, I don't know if you've ever been to an all ages show, all ages, and then they played Scrabble.
[C#] _ _ [Gm] _ _
_ [F] And normally kiddies, [E] the lady only [D#] plays Scrabble with her husband, so that was me.
[C] And it wasn't her.
[G] And anyway, she got an excellent triple letter [N] score, if you know what I mean.
_ [G] _ [Gm] For a long time since we've had one of them, I think.
Anyway, _ [N] he won. _
_ She headed home, it was about a 2K [G#] stagger back home.
[C] And when she got to her [G] front door, she realised, oh goodness me, I'm a little bit stolted.
I probably shouldn't go through the front door.
And she thought, I'll just go over there, the kids have got this [E] quite elaborate tree house down the [G] back.
And she thought, I'll just [C] line a bean bag in a tree house and sleep it off and everything will be taken care of in the [D] morning.
And this is the part of the [C#] story that I found [Em] deliciously irresistible and I had to write a song about it.
Because when [G] she climbed the ladder of the tree house, she got to the top and already asleep on the floor of the tree house was her husband.
_ [E] _ [C] And I don't know what happened.
I mean, that's where my mind just starts racing.
Was he also out playing scrabble?
[D] _
[F] Or was he out there playing solitaire?
[N] _ _ _
Or connect four?
_ _ The mind boggles.
[Gm] Anyway, I was writing a bunch [G] of these songs.
In fact, I wrote every single song on a beach called Oondinga down in South Australia, where you can drive your van onto the beach and just set things up.
And I had my little guitar out and I was [C#] fiddling around and I thought, goodness me, this song sounds like it [G] needs a banjo and I've never played banjo in all my life.
And so I [E] decided, well, this is a good age to start playing, isn't it?
I've just turned [D#] 28 and I thought, [B] I'll learn the banjo.
[C] No, anyway, so I bought myself a banjo for the first time because I thought it needed this kind of sound.
So this is a story that is true.
I just don't know what happened.
