Fitter's Song Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]I am[Em] a ro[Am]ving rambler,[G]
a [Am]fitter [Em]to me t[Am]rade.
[G]I c[Am]an fix you anything,
a [Em]camshaft [G]to [Em]a spade.
I can [Am]fix a dodgy [G]gearbox,
[Am]mend a [Em]broken tread,
de[Am]coke a Leyland engine
while I'm [Em]standing
[Am]So shift, boy, shift,
[G]do the [Em]job and draw your p[Am]ay
When this job is finished
I'll be moving [Em]on me way
I'll [Am]clean me tools
and wrap [F]them in a [Am]pair of oily [Em]jeans
You'll [Am]always find me working
where you [Em]find the big ma
[Am]chines[Em][Am][Em]
[Am]I've worked in far off places
[G]since I [Am]left the [Em]coalie [Am]tine
I work amon[Em]g the hea[Am]vies
and I wear a [G]roving [Em]sign
I [Am]keep the [Em]tractors [G]on the job,
I [Am]turn it [Em]up the soil
I've [Am]followed me knows
around the world
but the [Em]smell of diesel oil
[Am]So shift, boys, shift,
[G]do the [Em]job and draw your p[Am]ay
When this job is finished
I'll be moving on me [Em]way
You'll [Am]find me [Em]where the [Am]tractors
[F]are on [Am]roads and hydro [Em]schemes
Play[Am]ing the lousy [Em]nursemaid
to a pack of big ma[Am]chines[Em]
