Gerry Rafferty

Matties Rag

by Gerry Rafferty
Gerry Rafferty

Biography:

Gerald "Gerry" Rafferty (16 April 1947 – 4 January 2011) was a Scottish singer-songwriter. In his early years, Rafferty earned money by the formerly illegal practice of busking on the London Underground. Poetically, his biggest hit, 1978's "Baker Street", discusses busking at a tube station and being a part of the street life. After working with Billy Connolly (now better known as a comedian) in an obscure outfit known as The Humblebums, he released his first solo album, called 'Can I Have My Money Back', in 1971.

Am E
Oh Mattie you open up the door
F C Cmaj7
That's right I'm home again
Am E
You've got a big surprise in store
F C
Turn 'round and count to ten.

F
Wait till you see what I got you, well
D Dsus4 D
You’ll say it's a magic thing, it’s
F
Like an old mandolin man, you just
G E / E7
Wind him up and he’ll start to sing.

Am E
I've been away for quite a while
F C Cmaj7
And I want to hear all your news
Am E
Speak to me, let me see you smile
F C
'Cause I've had those home sick blues.

F
When I go down to the city
D Dsus4 D
I just don't know wrong from right
F
When I get back to you Mattie, well
G E/E7
You make me see the light.


Am E F C Cmaj7
Am E F C


F
Love is a singular thing, it can
F C Cmaj7
Take you up or bring you down, yes
F
Love is the song that I sing, so come
G G7
On now Mattie listen to the sound.

Am E
When you grow up we'll sit and talk
F C Cmaj7
Of how things used to be
Am E
I'll be your grand old man of rock
F C Cmaj7
With all these memories.

Am E F C Cmaj7 ...and fade
