Verse
C Dm
The town hall, note the mosaic wall,
F E
Well, there are 5,600 tiles on that wall. I know, I counted them all,
C Dm
E local school, E local swimming pool,
F E
Which was opened by the Governor General, back in 1952,
Gm A E
Where I was caught with a friend age 11 sniffing tractor fuel,
B
We thought we were pretty cool breaking them changing shed rules.
[Verse 2]
C Dm
But do you see up there? The banner hanging in the air,
F E
The Presbyterian fair, well I never go, there’s too many Presbyterians there,
Dm G
But if you’re interested, the fair’s in the third weekend of August every year,
Dm G
But don’t bother entering the raffle, it’s always won by some kid of the Mayor.
[Verse 3]
C Dm
Oh do you hear that sound? The town clock heard from anywhere in town,
F E
Until 1960, there was a little place in Norway, we bought it for a hundred pounds.
Gm A E
Rumor has it they sold it cheap because the chimes were too loud,
B
But every time I hear that sound it makes me so proud.
[Verse 4]
G B
Look to your left, what a beautiful sight,
C B
It’s Paula, Paula Thompson, nee Paula Wright,
G B
Look at her hair, it’s still gorgeous even now,
C B
Flowing like the Waimahunga river, which incidentally is to your right,
C B
And is the largest in the area, in terms of volume,
C B
Everybody look at Paula, Look at Paula Thompson,
C Em B
I always thought I’d marry Paula, but some things just don’t work out that way,
C Dm
Well that’s the most important thing you’ll learn on the tour today,
F E
That and the fact that there’ll be a toilet break at the information center near the man-made lake.
[Spoken Section 2]
C Dm
I'll just ask you one favor, if you do see Paula in town later on,
F E
I'd appreciate that you don't mention the details of my tour. Ahh, Same goes for my wife, Gloria, who you'll
C Dm
recognize because she looks a hell of a lot like Paula, actually. Yeah, but um,
F E
Well, she's not Paula, that's for sure, no, oh she's not Paula no...
[Verse 5]
G B C B C
Paula Thompson born in ’54, to a family of four
B C B G
To the family next door, take me back next door
G B C B C
Paula Thompson nee Paula Wright, that’s her old house number 39,
B C Em Am
Number 41 was mine, if this old coach could go back in time,
Am Am
I’d drive to 1979... Take me back!
[Instrumental]
Gm Gm Gm Am
Gm Gm Gm Am
[Verse 6]

Take me back, take me back.
Gm Am
Take take a take take a me back!
Gm Gm
Take me back, take me back.
Gm Am
Take take a take take a me back!
Gm Gm
Take me back, take me back.
Gm G
Take me back, take me back.
G E
Take me back, Take me ba-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aaaaack!
[Spoken Section 3]
C Dm
Yeah, sorry about that. Just- I just get a little bit carried away there on the corner, bit emotional,
F E
But, that is the end of the tour, so yeah mind your step, enjoy your stay, and good on you.
