Phil Lynott & John Sykes - Growing Up (GasTank Ep 3) | Rick Wakeman chords
Start Jamming...
Hello, welcome to Gas Tank.
My name's Rick Wakeman.
Over there, Mr Tony Ashton.
Our first [D] guest tonight is Phil Lynott from Thin Lizzy.
And when we asked Phil to come on the programme, we asked if he could bring a friend along.
Now, we thought he meant his mother or something, but it actually is, for those of you who follow the band,
it's their new guitarist who's been with them just a few months now, Mr John Sykes.
Starting off with a track called Growing Up.
[E]
[D]
The [E] little girl, she [Bm] comes running home from school
She's lost [Em] her first public fight
[A] She's so upset and she wipes away her tears
She [D] can't concentrate on her homework at night
[Bm] And finally when she gets her homework right
[Em] Her daddy knows something's wrong
[A] But decides to leave the questions
[D] Till later on
And later [Bm] on at the little girl's request
That [Em] she go to bed early to rest
[A]
Like a weeping willow into a sleeping [D] pillow she cries
The little [Bm] girl is growing up
While the [Em] whole world is falling down
I wish this [A] early end could stop
But [D] she's only learning, learning
[Bm] Her daddy gets up late for work
Got [Em]
a cigarette hanging from the corner of his mouth
[A]
He's late, he's missed that train again
[D] The hoarding is gonna shake
And [Bm] finally when he gets to work
[Bm] All his [Em] fears delivered with one blow
The [A]
boss says with a smile
I'm [D] sorry, we'll have to let you go
The little [Bm] girl is growing up
While his whole [Em] world has fallen down
I wish this [A] early end could stop
But she's [D] only learning, learning
