Pickin On Murray Chords

[Verse 1]
    A
The regulars turn up every year
         D                 E
With the wife and kids and picking gear
A
Some will try it and give it away
       D                E        A
You've got to be tough enough to stay
 
[Verse 2]
     A
Well Molly rolls up in the caravan
      D              E
With another kid and dear old Nan
A
Mike strolls in, we give him a tease
D                  E         A
Old socks wrapped around his knees
 
[Chorus]
D                  E
Dust up your nose, flies in your face
A        A/G#        A/F#     A/E
Cuts and bruises all over the place
D              E
Smoko at last, find some shade
F#m             E     A
Dream of Friday fully paid
 
[Solo]
D      E      A  A/G#  A/F#  A/E
D      E      F#m      E     A
 
[Verse 3]
A
No time now for a second cup
D                  E
Heads all down and bottoms up
        A
If your legs are sore give them a rub
    D               E         A
And dream about the Wentworth Club
 
[Verse 4]
          A
Yes, it's picking time down on the Murray
D                 E
Some real steady, some in a hurry
A
Everyone's into it, watch the gun pick
   D                  E           A
No time for whingeing when you're quick
 
[Chorus]
     D                E
With ragged knees and aching backs
  A        A/G#       A/F#     A/E
Monotonous buckets, monotonous racks
  D                E
Monotonous heat, monotonous grapes
F#m                 E        A
Fading batteries, monotonous tapes
 
[Solo]
D      E      A  A/G#  A/F#  A/E
D      E      F#m      E     A
 
[Verse 5]
           A
Now the Sunraysia blockies are a marvellous crew
     D                 E
They treat us all to a barbecue
     A
With grapes all picked we drink a beer
       D                      E        A
To the dear old friends we'll see next year
 
[Chorus]
D                  E
Dust up your nose, flies in your face
A        A/G#        A/F#     A/E
Cuts and bruises all over the place
D              E
Smoko at last, find some shade
F#m             E     A
Dream of Friday fully paid
 
[Solo]
D      E      A  A/G#  A/F#  A/E
D      E      F#m      E     A
