| Harry made a bareback rider | proud and free upon | a | ho | rse 0. | 5 | 0. | 5 | 0. | 5 |
| Am | D | D | - | Am | Am | - | C | - | D | |
| And a fine coalminer | for the NCB that w | as |
| (repeat chord sequence ahead....) |
| A fallen angel and Jesus on the cross |
| A skating ballerina you should have seen her do the skater's waltz |
| Some people have got to paint and draw |
| Harry had to work iin clay and stone |
| Like the waves coming to the shore |
| It was in his blood and in his bones |
| Ignored by all the trendy boys in London and in Leeds |
| Am | D | - | G | - | C | G | |
| CHORUS: | He might as well have been making t | oy | s | or strings of bea | ds |
| C C G C slide D |
| He could'nt be... He could'nt be..... in the gallery |
| And then you get an artist says he doesn't want to paint at all |
| He takes an empty canvas and sticks it on the wall |
| The birds of a feather all the phonies and all of the fakes |
| While the dealers they get together |
| And they decide who gets the breaks |
| And who's going to be in the gallery |
| Solo: Follow 1 verse chord pattern |
| and then do the chorus |
| No lies he wouldn't compromise |
| No junk no bits of string |
| And all the lies we subsidise |
| That just don't mean a thing |
| I've got to say he passed away in obscurity |
| And now all the vultures are coming down from the tree |
| So he's going to be in the gallery |
| (keep chord sequence going |
| ie Am - D.C / Am - D.C) |
