My Saturday job pays six and six down

A copy boy at the Chronicle
Am C/G F Dm/A
Five cigarettes and two silver half crowns
F Dm/A
Meeting Vince at Mark Toney’s in town
F Am
Boy, do we get around
(Am) C/G F Dm
Basil sits there on the table for subs
F
But not a part of the Bri-nylon club
Am C/G F
Ancient blue sweater, too old for the job
Dm
Bored out of his mind
F
With the Colins and Bobs
C/G FMaj7
I’m a jack and a lad
C FMaj7
And I’m up for the world
C F Am
And I’ve kissed a Gateshead girl
(Am) C/G F Dm
He calls for a copy boy, grumpy as hell
F
Poets have to eat as well
Am C F Dm
What he wouldn’t give just to walk out today
F Dm
To have time to think about time
F
And young love thrown away
C FMaj7
I’m a jack and a lad
C FMaj7
And I’m up for the world
C F
And I’ve kissed a Gateshead girl
F C E7
Starlings swarming a cloud
Am
Over Grainger Street
F
Over the black church
Dm C E7
Over the Black Gate
(Am)
And the shadowy Keep

(Am)
He peers through his wire rims
C/G F Dm
At the fish and chip words
F
He’s supposed to dish up and forget
Am C F
His drudgery now has become slightly blurred
Dm F
By one of his Players untipped cigarettes
C FMaj7
Bury all joy
C FMaj7
Put the poems in sacks
C F
And bury me here with the hacks

(Am)
In the summer the fair

Will stretch over the Moor
Dm/A F
Lovers will lie and make out in the park

Basil puts on his old duffel and scarf

And goes out into the dark
