Chords for The McCalmans - Ye Jacobites

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ [Bbm] [G] We'll have a break now, another beer break.
[Ab]
It would be absolutely wonderful if [Eb] someone
[Gm] actually is a, what, [Eb] a tangle foot or _ something, beer, [B] up to there, really, [Bbm] _ one of the organisers
[Ab] saved me queuing in a, [Db] _
trying to be a star in a queue.
[N] _ _ _
_ _ [Abm] _ _ Bloody awful.
[Eb] We've [Abm] got that tracked in Germany and all that.
Put beers behind me, you [Bb] get
beer free there.
But here [Ab] you're in, then you're in a queue.
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ Well _ _ [B] no wonder after 46 bloody years you [Bbm] retort.
_ [Em] Anyway, [G] marketing, we've got CDs [Abm] down there,
but [G] especially the Green Tracks years, a double album [Abm] _ for 12 quid, and it's got [Db] 46 tracks
and it goes back to the Hamish, Derek Days, [Eb] _
[Gm] right through the [Ab] Nick Derek Days to the current
group and [B] all the best.
46 [Gb]
tracks, [N] who the hell is going to listen to 46 tracks?
_ _ _ I can't
understand it myself, but it's been very popular _ [B] and lots of people have got it.
But
I'm [A] trying to [B] enjoy the booklet, _ the booklet [E] as well, and [G] Hamish had never seen it [Db] and
it's absolutely great.
It's just, it's still, you know, the old [B] photographs following the
group right through to now.
_ [G] Right.
_ _ [E] Which means we've actually [Ab] just seen it.
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ What [Eb] a _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [Em] card, haven't we?
[Gb] What a line.
[Bb] _
[Ebm] Pink underpants, who [A] would have thought?
_ [E] _ _ _
[N] Anyway, _ it's a riveting [Abm] read.
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ [G] _ [Abm] _
[Gm] Actually, it's [Ab] got good crits [Gb] all round.
If you want [B] that, we'll [Dbm] sign it.
[Gm] But the thing
is, [Ab] eBay, _ _ because Hamish is here [G] tonight.
Now he doesn't come to concerts and he's not
going to, well, he [N] might be at the last one, but if you get his signature, _ they're the
[G] only ones with the four signatures.
[A] Michael Jackson, think of Michael [Ab] Jackson.
I always
think [E] of Michael Jackson.
[F] God bless him, we [Abm] love him.
We did this, [Dbm] an unaccompanied version
of Thriller [N] and it was, we loved Michael Jackson.
He died _ and then the next [Abm] day eBay, all [C] his
merchandise was worth about ten [Gb] times as much as it was the night before.
[N] And I'm not feeling well. _ _
_ _ _ _ In these times of low percentage interest rates, it could be an investment, that's all
I'm saying.
You know, I, I, I, Hamish is looking a bit ropey as well. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Come to think of it, you're not that great.
_ [C] _
_ _ [Bb] [Gb] You got a man. _ _
Anyway, this song was recorded by [Dbm] _
the [Gb] McCallmins, the old McCallmins, just [B] after Queen [G] Victoria
died. _
[A] _ _ [B] 1967 I [Bm] think was when we first recorded this.
And it's a song that [Eb] could be about
[Abm] Iraq or [Gbm] Vietnam or Afghanistan.
[E] It's a song that says governments should [A]
not be trusted
[Gb] and if you're told to go to war, question them [A] at all times.
