Verse
F# G#m
The town hall, note the mosaic wall,
B A#
Well, there are 5,600 tiles on that wall. I know, I counted them all,
F# G#m
A# local school, A# local swimming pool,
B A#
Which was opened by the Governor General, back in 1952,
C#m D# A#
Where I was caught with a friend age 11 sniffing tractor fuel,
F
We thought we were pretty cool breaking them changing shed rules.
[Verse 2]
F# G#m
But do you see up there? The banner hanging in the air,
B A#
The Presbyterian fair, well I never go, there’s too many Presbyterians there,
G#m C#
But if you’re interested, the fair’s in the third weekend of August every year,
G#m C#
But don’t bother entering the raffle, it’s always won by some kid of the Mayor.
[Verse 3]
F# G#m
Oh do you hear that sound? The town clock heard from anywhere in town,
B A#
Until 1960, there was a little place in Norway, we bought it for a hundred pounds.
C#m D# A#
Rumor has it they sold it cheap because the chimes were too loud,
F
But every time I hear that sound it makes me so proud.
[Verse 4]
C# F
Look to your left, what a beautiful sight,
F# F
It’s Paula, Paula Thompson, nee Paula Wright,
C# F
Look at her hair, it’s still gorgeous even now,
F# F
Flowing like the Waimahunga river, which incidentally is to your right,
F# F
And is the largest in the area, in terms of volume,
F# F
Everybody look at Paula, Look at Paula Thompson,
F# A#m F
I always thought I’d marry Paula, but some things just don’t work out that way,
F# G#m
Well that’s the most important thing you’ll learn on the tour today,
B A#
That and the fact that there’ll be a toilet break at the information center near the man-made lake.
[Spoken Section 2]
F# G#m
I'll just ask you one favor, if you do see Paula in town later on,
B A#
I'd appreciate that you don't mention the details of my tour. Ahh, Same goes for my wife, Gloria, who you'll
F# G#m
recognize because she looks a hell of a lot like Paula, actually. Yeah, but um,
B A#
Well, she's not Paula, that's for sure, no, oh she's not Paula no...
[Verse 5]

Paula Thompson born in ’54, to a family of four
F F# F C#
To the family next door, take me back next door

Paula Thompson nee Paula Wright, that’s her old house number 39,
