Intro: Bm A G Bm
Bm A
Stone-cutters made them from stones
G
Chosen specially for you and I
Bm
Who will live inside
Bm A
The mountaineers gathered timber piled high
G
In which to take along
Bm
Travelling many miles knowing they'd get here
Bm
When they got here all exhausted
A
On the roof leaks they got started
G Bm
And now when the rain comes we can be thankful
Bm A
Ooooooooh-aaah Ooooooo-ooh
G
When the mountaineers saw that everything fit
Bm
They were glad and so they took off
Bm A
Thought we were due for a change
G Bm
Or two around this place
A G
When they got back they're all mixed up
Bm--
With no one to stay with
Interlude: --Bm A G Bm
Bm
The village used to be all one really needs
A
Now it's filled with hundreds and hundreds of chemicals
G
That mostly surround you, you wish to flee
Bm
But it's not like you so listen to me listen to me
Bm
Oh and when the morning comes
We will step outside
A
We will not find another man in sight
G
We like the newness the newness of all
That has grown in our garden
Bm
Struggling for so long
Bm
Whenever I was a child
I wonder what if my name had changed
A
Into something more productive
G
Like Roscoe been born in 1891
Bm
With my aunt Roslein
Bm A
Thought we were due for a change
G Bm
Or two around this place - ooh-oooh -
Bm A
Thought we were due for a change
G Bm
Or two around this place
- single strums -

When they got back they're all mixed up
