Intro
Bm Em BM Em
[Verse 1]
Bm
Side by side
F#
We walk along
Em Bm
To the end of Gertrude Street
Bm F# Bm Em Bm
Then we topple in muster for a quart of wine
Bm
Thick or thin
F#
Right or wrong
Em Bm
In the cold or in the heat
Bm F# Bm
We cross over Smith Street to the end of the line
[Chorus]
Em Bm
And we laugh and sing
F# Bm
And do anything
F# Bm
To take away the pain
Em Bm F# Bm
Trying to keep it down as it first went round
F# Bm Em Bm
In Charcoal Lane
[Verse 2]
Bm
Spinning yarns
F#
And telling jokes
Em Bm
Now the wine is tasting good
Bm F# Bm
As its getting closer and closer to it’s end
Bm
Have a sip
F#
And roll some smokes
Em Bm
We’d smoke ‘Tailor mades’ if we could
Bm F# Bm Em Bm
Oh, we just make do with some city Street Blend
[Chorus]
Em Bm
And we’d all chuck in
F# Bm
And we’d start to grin
F# Bm
When we had enough to do it again
Em Bm F# Bm F#
But if things got tight then we’d have to bite
F# Bm Em Bm
For Charcoal Lane
[Verse 3]
Bm
Up Gertrude Street
F#
We walk once more
Em Bm Em Bm
With just a few cents short
Bm F# Bm Em Bm
And we stop at The Builders to see who we could see
Bm
And we barter around
F#
Until we score
Em Bm
C# flagon of McWilliams port
Bm F# Bm Em Bm
Enough to take away our misery
[Chorus]
Em Bm
And we’d all get drunk
F# Bm
Oh so drunk
F# Bm
And maybe a little insane
Em Bm
And we’d stagger home
F# Bm
All alone
F# Bm
And the next day we’d do it again
F# F#sus4 F#sus2 Bm Em Bm
Have a reviver in Charcoal Lane
F# F#sus4 F#sus2 Bm Em Bm
I’m a survivor of Charcoal Lane
