[Verse]
D G
Teary eyes at the window, Where did Mum and Dad go?
D Em7
I wish someone would hurry up and come and get me, Gee I'm scared
D A7 D
The cat shot through, She saw the light and fled.style='font-size:1px;color:#ffffff;'>
D G D
Cracker night was a real big deal, when I was a little kid
Em7 A7
They started lettin' them off after tea I ran inside and hid
D A7 D
And all the dogs from everywhere were underneath me bed.
D G D
We all went down in our dressing gowns to see the big bonfire
Em7 A7
Wide eyes watched the straw man burn on a milehigh pile of tyres
D A7 D
Hot as hell, big black smell and red hot rings of wire.
A7 D
Sky rockets zinging, Catherine wheels spinning,
A7 D
What a flamin' evening, Fire trucks were screaming
A7
Smoky haze hangin' round for days
D
And Grandma's ears were ringing.
D G D
Everynight after school draggin' bits of wood, Boxes and branches
D Em7 A7
and rotten old fences, And mattresses were good.
D A7 D
We even scrounged a vinyl lounge And anything we could
D G D
Little Guy Fawkes's and letter boxes Blown all out of shape
Em7 A7
Light the wick and back off quick, And make the big escape
D A7 D
Cackin ourselves and rippin' my shirt Scrambling through the gate
A7 D
Sky rockets zinging, Catherine wheels spinning,
A7 D
What a flamin' evening, Fire trucks were screaming
A7
Smoky haze hangin' round for days
D
And Grandma's ears were ringing.
D G D
A house burnt down on the edge of town We all took off with Pa
Em7 A7
This thing whizzed across the road And nearly hit our car
D A7 D
A bang and spark lit up the park And everyone went Ah! Ah! Ah!
D G D
Cracker night was a real big deal, When I was a little kid,
Em7 A7
It seems like only yesterday Tucked away in bed
D A7 D
Dreams of schemes and double bunger Daring things we did.
