How to Make Gravy Paul Kelly
[Intro]
[E] [F#m7add11] [Emaj7] [F#m7add11]
[E] [F#m7add11] [Emaj7] [F#m7add11]
[Verse]
[E] Hello Dan, [F#m7add11] it's Joe here,
[Emaj7] I hope you're keeping [F#m7add11]well,
[E] itâ??s the 21st of De[F#m7add11]cember
[Emaj7] now theyâ??re ringing the las[F#m7add11]t bell.
[Aadd9] If I get good behaviour[Emaj7]
[Aadd9] I'll be out of here by July,[Badd11]
[E] wonâ??t you kiss my kids o[F#m7add11]n Christmas day,
[Emaj7] please [F#m7add11]don't let them cry for me[E].
[F#m7add11] [Emaj7] [F#m7add11]
[Verse]
[E] I guess the brothers are driving down from [F#m7add11]Queensland
[Emaj7] and Stella's flying in from the [F#m7add11]coast.
[E] They say it's gonna be a hundred [F#m7add11]degrees, even more maybe,
[Emaj7] but that won't [F#m7add11]stop the roast.
[Aadd9] Who's gonna make the [Emaj7]gravy now?
[Aadd9] I bet it won't taste the [Badd11]same
[E] Just add flour, salt, [F#m7add11]a little red wine and don't forget a
[Emaj7]dollop of tomato sauce for [F#m7add11]sweetness and that extra tang.
[Bridge]
And give my love to [E]Angus and to [F#m7add11]Frank and Dolly,
Tell 'em all I'm [Emaj7]sorry I screwed [F#m7add11]up this time.
And look after [E]Rita, I'll be thinking [F#m7add11]of her,
early Christmas [Emaj7]morning, when I'm [F#m7add11]standing in li[E]ne.
[F#m7add11] [Emaj7] [F#m7add11]
[Verse]
[E] I hear Mary's got a new [F#m7add11]boyfriend,
[Emaj7] I hope he can hold his [F#m7add11]own
[E] Do you remember the last one? [F#m7add11] What was his name again?
[Emaj7] (Just a little too much colog[F#m7add11]ne)
[Aadd9] And Roger, you know I'm even gonna [Emaj7]miss Roger
[Aadd9]'Cause there's sure as hell no one in here [Badd11]I want to fight
[Bridge]
Oh praise the Baby [E]Jesus, have a Merry [F#m7add11]Christmas,
I'm really gonna [Emaj7]miss it, all the treasure and the [F#m7add11]trash
And later in the [E]evening, I can just i[F#m7add11]magine,
You'll put on Junior [Emaj7]Murvin and push the tables [F#m7add11]back
And you'll dance with [E]Rita, I know you really [F#m7add11]like her,
Just don't hold her [Emaj7]too close, oh brother [F#m7add11]please don't stab me in the back
I didn't mean to [E]say that, it's just my mind it [F#m7add11]plays up,
Multiplies each [Emaj7]matter, turns imagin[F#m7add11]ation into fact
You know I love her [E]badly, she's the one to [F#m7add11]save me,
I'm gonna make some [Emaj7]gravy, I'm gonna taste the [F#m7add11]fat
Tell her that I'm [E]sorry, yeah I love her [F#m7add11]badly,
tell 'em all I'm [Emaj7]sorry, and kiss the sleepy [F#m7add11]children for me.
You know one of these [E]days, I'll be making [F#m7add11]gravy,
I'll be making [Emaj7]plenty, I'm gonna [F#m7add11]pay 'em all back[E].
[F#m7add11] [Emaj7] [F#m7add11]
