Tuning: E A D G B E

Chas & Dave performs Wonder Where He Is Now? on Later… with Jools Holland on BBC Two (12 June 2018). [Chorus]

^G I wonder where he is now, My old ^Cpal. Me and him used to go ^Dfishing, In the old ^Gcanal. I woke this morning thinking 'bout him, Don't know why I don't ^Cknow. I wonder what he's ^Ddoing of, I should like to ^Gknow.

[Verse 1]

N.C.

He used to catch a lot of Gudgeon, I caught a lot of ^Cbleak. 'Cos now and then he would hook a ^Dbig one, Well nearly every ^Gweek.

I asked him how he done it,

He told me what to ^Cdo. Fish about a yard ^Ddeeper, And you'll catch a biggun' ^Gtoo.

[Instrumental] G C D G G C D G [Verse 2]

And when the day was nearly ^Cover, And we could barely ^Gsee. We'd take the torches off our^D7 bikes and shine them on our floats, For extra visibil^Gity. Pretty soon we'd be ^Cbiking, Down the lane into the ^Gnight. And what I thought were birds ^Dflying all around he said were bats, And of course, he was ^Gright.

[Chorus]

N.C.

Wonder where he is now, My old ^Cpal. Me and him used to go ^Dfishing, In the old ^Gcanal. I woke this morning thinking 'bout him, Don't know why I don't ^Cknow. I wonder what he's ^Ddoing of, I should like to ^Gknow. Wonder where he is now
