Intro
Em Am EM Am
[Verse 1]
Em
Side by side
B
We walk along
Am Em
To the end of Gertrude Street
Em B Em Am Em
Then we topple in muster for a quart of wine
Em
Thick or thin
B
Right or wrong
Am Em
In the cold or in the heat
Em B Em
We cross over Smith Street to the end of the line
[Chorus]
Am Em
And we laugh and sing
B Em
And do anything
B Em
To take away the pain
Am Em B Em
Trying to keep it down as it first went round
B Em Am Em
In Charcoal Lane
[Verse 2]
Em
Spinning yarns
B
And telling jokes
Am Em
Now the wine is tasting good
Em B Em
As its getting closer and closer to it’s end
Em
Have a sip
B
And roll some smokes
Am Em
We’d smoke ‘Tailor mades’ if we could
Em B Em Am Em
Oh, we just make do with some city Street Blend
[Chorus]
Am Em
And we’d all chuck in
B Em
And we’d start to grin
B Em
When we had enough to do it again
Am Em B Em B
But if things got tight then we’d have to bite
B Em Am Em
For Charcoal Lane
[Verse 3]
Em
Up Gertrude Street
B
We walk once more
Am Em Am Em
With just a few cents short
Em B Em Am Em
And we stop at The Builders to see who we could see
Em
And we barter around
B
Until we score
Am Em
F# flagon of McWilliams port
Em B Em Am Em
Enough to take away our misery
[Chorus]
Am Em
And we’d all get drunk
B Em
Oh so drunk
B Em
And maybe a little insane
Am Em
And we’d stagger home
B Em
All alone
B Em
And the next day we’d do it again
B Bsus4 Bsus2 Em Am Em
Have a reviver in Charcoal Lane
B Bsus4 Bsus2 Em Am Em
I’m a survivor of Charcoal Lane
