Super fun song to play with simple chords. I added a capo to the 2nd fret to avoid the Bm chord. Enjoy =)
[Intro]
Am C G Am C G Am (Picking pattern is 2-5-4-5 for Am and C, then switches to 1-5-4-5 for the G chord)
[Verse 1]
AmOne smoky day in a darkened scullery
CDown by the river in a Gfactory town
Where Ambad things happen & the walls are drippn'
And the Cghosts are Gflittin' frae the Amcold hard ground
A Ampot & kettle on the hob were settled
A' Chissin' their patter so Gbileous cruel
An Amawfy matter o' clout & claterin'
CBattlin' Gwits in a Amhideous duel
[Chorus]
AmLids a rattlin' belchin' steam
CLife ain't nothin but a Gfevered dream
'You're a Amlowly villain'
'You're a terrible liar'
'But we're Cboth here Gcookin' on the Amsame old fire'
AmGuts a bubblin' belchin' steam
CLife ain't nothin but a Gfevered dream
'You're a Amchanty pot'
'And you're a shite for brains'
'But we're Cboth here Ghangin' on the Amsame old chains'
[Verse 2]
"I've Amroasted a wealth of exotic things
All Ctorn to ribbons at the Ghands of kings
AmPolished copper how I proudly shone
CStealin the Gfire of the Amblazing sun"
"Ye've Amboilt nae mair'n 'em old soup bones
I've Cboilt the tea for them Gstately homes
I were Amrattled like a drum each Hogmanay
Then Cscrubbed tae the Gdevil on the Amfollwin' day"
[Chorus]
AmLids a rattlin' belchin' steam
CLife ain't nothin but a Gfevered dream
'You're a Amlowly villain'
'You're a terrible liar'
'But we're Cboth here Gcookin' on the Amsame old fire'
AmGuts a bubblin' belchin' steam
CLife ain't nothin but a Gfevered dream
'You're a Amchanty pot'
'And you're a shite for brains'
'But we're Cboth here Ghangin' on the Amsame old chains'
[Bridge] x 2

[Verse 3]
"O Amkettle yer metal is a terrible hue
CRiddled wi' holes cannae Ghold yer brew
Yer Amlids all crooked & yer sides bashed in
It'll Cnot be Glong afore ye Amsee the bin"
"AmPot your not so bright as me
A Chags old cauldron is Gall you'd be
You Amreek o' gruel & you're none too young
CFit for to Gcarry but the Ampeels & dung"
[Chorus 2]
AmLids a rattlin' belchin' steam
CLife ain't nothin but a Gfevered dream
'You're a Amlowly villain'
'You're a terrible liar'
'But we're Cboth here Gcookin' on the Amsame old fire'
AmGuts a bubblin' belchin' steam
CLife ain't nothin but a Gfevered dream
'You're an Amold piss bucket'
'You're a dented can'
'But we're Cneither as Gblack as that Amroasting pan.'
[Chorus]
AmLids a rattlin' belchin' steam
CLife ain't nothin but a Gfevered dream
'You're a Amlowly villain'
'You're a terrible liar'
'But we're Cboth here Gcookin' on the Amsame old fire'
AmGuts a bubblin' belchin' steam
CLife ain't nothin but a Gfevered dream
'You're a Amchanty pot'
'And you're a shite for brains'
'But we're Cboth here Ghangin' on the Amsame old chains'
