I'd like to right now welcome you to one of my drunken mates.
The first fellow that sounded like an Aussie.
Our hero, Chad Morgan!
[D]
Eugh.
I got two bullseyes on the panel [G] van and a bill from telecom.
[A] I'm harder to find in the big smoke than in the country [D] town I'm from.
But the cops are after [A] me for fines and [G] they're bound to catch me soon.
[A] So I think I'll just get stoned this [D] afternoon.
Well I [A] tried for around about six [G] months to get myself a job.
[A] But the vacancies were taken by the time that I could log.
Eventually it gave me [G] what I get from eating prunes.
[A] So I think I'll just get stoned this [D] afternoon.
Now I could ask the bank [G] again to extend another loan.
[A] But they sit you down with questions that strip you [D] to the bone.
With words like security [G] they play the same old tune.
[A] So I think I'll just get stoned this [D] afternoon.
[G] Well I spent my [D] last ten bucks on a greyhound.
[G] Got a tip [A] from a bloke [D] who's in the know.
[Gm] At twenty [A]-five to one it [D] won't you get it.
But the [A] bloke who put the bed on's [D] hit the toe.
Well [A] I woke up with an awful [G] pain from an overdose of grog.
[A] You'd think a bloke my age would stop behaving like a [D] mongrel dog.
She'll never take me back again [G] cause I'm a no good hoon.
[A] I think I'll just get stoned this [D] afternoon.
Well my mum [A] and dad are coming down so [G] I'll borrow someone's mop.
[A] I'll get this place all spic and span I'll scrub it till [D] I drop.
I could slap up a cheesecake but [G] I've bragged my wooden [D] spoon.
So I [A] think I'll just get stoned this [D] afternoon.
Well me mother's always worried [G] sick that I'm not eating well.
[A] She reckons that you're starving if your belly doesn't swell.
But I'll attack a pack of say-o's and [G] I'll cut myself some coon.
[A] And I think I'll just get stoned this [D] afternoon.
[G] Oh scratching, scratching, [A] scratching and nothing [D] can be found.
By [G] the time I win the lottery I'll be six [D] foot underground.
[G] But if I win I'll take a girl for a ride around the [D] moon.
[A] But I think I'll just get stoned [D] this afternoon.
