[D] [G] [D] [B] [A]
[E] [D] No one owned a car as I [Bm] recall my childhood days
[D] We walked to school and the outside world [E] seemed a million miles [A] away
We
[Bm] seldom went [D] to town if only someone [G] was real sick
Allies [D] were wrapped around the [A] farm and the neighbours [D] up the creek
Our nearest neighbours were the [Bm] cows, they had big families
[F#m] The Dunbar's [D] down the road bought a [E] while of sand, a [A] model T
We [Bm] gathered [D] round to hear the thing, I think it [G] changed our ways
We [D] listened to Test Cricket [A] and we followed [D] Dad and Dade
I never got to know my [Bm] Dad because I'll not relate
[D] Well not until my teenage [E] years and then just [A] a little late
He [Bm] said, I'll help your [D] singing lad when this old [G] war is won
[D] But he never lived to hear me [A] sing on regal [D] zonophone
[G] Old man you were a rebel, [D] you were loud and you were rough
[E] The neighbours called you noisy Dan, you were made of [A] solid stuff
[Bm] You'd lay that [D] fiddle down your arm and the Irish [G] songs would flow
[D] But you never lived to hear me [A] sing on regal [D] zonophone
You [G] [F#m]
[B] [Bm] [Em] [D]
wrote some verses down for [Bm] me, the tunes I'd not forgot
The [D] last two years you seemed to [E] know your time was [A] running short
[Bm] You held your head in [D] tired old hands concerned for [G] what had been
[D] And you seemed to know you'd never [A] see me reach the [D] final dream
I've tried to do what you [Bm] intended on last Rocky Run
[D] That you'd be proud if you could see [E] your bearded tall [A] grandson
So [Bm] when I hit [D] that final trail I'll take [G] this box along
And [D] together we will sing those songs from [A] [D] regal zonophone
[G] Old man we'll both be rebels [D] and we'll be loud and rough
[E] They may call us lots of names but we will [A] call their bluff
You [Bm] can lay that [D] fiddle down your arm and I will [G] sing along
[D] And together we will sing those songs from regal zonophone
Together we will sing those songs [Bm] from regal zonophone
[G] [A] [D] [G]
