Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
(play 2X) Main Bassline:
D|====7======7======7======7== D|====4=5=7=5=4===
Strum an open D chord (8 beats)
Christy Brown a clown around town
Now a man of renown from Dingle to Down
I can type with me toes suck stout through me nose
And where it's going to end God only knows
Down all the days - the tap-tap tapping of the typewriter pays
The gentle rattling of the drays - Down all the days
Break
strum D (4 beats)
I have often had to depend upon
The kindliness of strangers
But I've never been asked and never replied
If I supported Glasgow Rangers
Down all the days - the tap-tap tapping of the typewriter pays
The gentle rattling of the drays - Down all the days
Break
strum D (16 beats)
Down all the days - the tap-tap tapping of the typewriter pays
The gentle rattling of the drays - Down all the days
Outro
strum D (fade out)
