[G]
[E]
[Em] [C#m] [Am]
[D] [G]
[F#m] [Em] There are strains going [E] zong [Em] in a quaint [A] northern ten,
[D] Which the folk there are trying to [G] keep quiet.
[B] [Em] It'll cause a sensation, [E] so they're playing [A] it den,
[D] Cos they're frightened of starting [G] a riot.
[D] For there's kitten in wee arms that [G] are thirty foot long,
[D] And their heads are as smooth as [G] boiled eggs.
[D] And the man who sells pies has [G] got three great big eyes,
[C] And their old Billy [B] Hooker [A] is green with [D] six legs.
For [G] the merchants are [C] all [G] handed in wiggin,
And they're wearing [A] black caps on [D] their doors,
And [G] they've paid all [D] their sums to [E] the working [C] men's clubs,
[A] Cos wiggin [D]
reminds them of [F#] old.
[Em]
[Am] [D]
[G] [F#]
Now [Em] the merchants had lost all their [A] burling's money,
As [D] their compass had gone up [G] the spout.
[F#]
[Em] As they landed on Slagheap's the captain said,
[A]
Reach, [D] we're home lads, so let's all [G] file out.
[F#m] Well [D] they soon realised that [G] they'd made a [F#m] mistake,
So [D] some digs [Am] further neat [G] they all boot.
[F#] Where [D] they trotters had not bought some [G] fresh ettles cakes,
[C] But when they tasted [B] black buddings, [A] their merchants [D] were out.
For [G] the merchants [C] are all handed [G] in wiggin,
And they're wearing [A] black caps on [D] their doors,
And [G] they've paid all [D] their sums [E] to the working [C] men's clubs,
[A] Cos wiggin [D] reminds them [G] of old.
[E]
[G]
[F#] [Em] Now the merchants play bingo and speak [F#m] local lingo,
[D]
Like Sidney and Ay [G]-oat-oat-flower.
[F#] [Em] From the pier every day you can go up [F#m] Milky Way,
[D] Or a UFO trip round [G] Blackpool Tower.
[D]
So next time you're passing [G]
through wiggin,
And [D]
remember the things [G] I have said,
[F#m] [D]
Beware of the ones who [G] have clubs on their feet,
[C]
And early [B] you'll stoke out [A]
the top of [D] their heads.
[G] For the merchants [C] have landed [G] in wiggin,
And they're wearing [A] black caps [D] on their doors,
And [G] they've paid [D] all their sums [Em] to the working [C] men's clubs,
Cos [A] wiggin [D]
reminds [G] them of old.
[E]
[A] Wiggin reminds them [G] of [E] old.
[A] Wiggin [D] reminds them [G] of [D] old.
