Chords for The Corries --- La Di Dum

You probably notice that these writers of love songs never if ever take as a starting point the nose
Do they now be honest they never take as the starting point the nose.

_ [N] _ No, it gets a wee bit dirty, but in general in general the nose is is quite a nice shape
You know it's it's quite a poetic shape.
This is a bloody mess, but most
Quite nice so what we're gonna do is remedy that situation and we would like to sing a song about a man with a nose
like a hose
Through this man's nose was about as long as as leaf walking Edinburgh.
You know how long that is

He was born with it, but oh what's what's used?
Oh big and why?

Sorts of trouble [Ab] all during his life, and that's exactly what we'd like to sing about no, thank you very much
