G C G
It's early Friday moening i was cycling into town
D
The front wheel was wobbling and the mudguard hanging down
G C G
The two legs of me trousers were tied up with bits of twine
D G
and the pension book was telling me a pint would soon be mine
G C G
How ya, Mr Murphy? says the postal clerk to me
D
Not too bad say I for a man at seventy three
G C G
A fox came to me house last night and stole me only duck
D G
But a lottery tick she says "it might change yiour luck"
[Verse]
G C G
I took the little girls advise and handed her a pound
D
Outside I scratched the ticket with a penknife I had found
C G
Well I nearly dropped me trousers and grew a head of hair
D G
When I realised I was a bloody millionaire
G C G
No more hay or turf to save, no more feeding calves
D
One kick from my big boot and the bike was in two halves
G C G
Well I headed for the local - sure I was feeling great
D G
And friends I never knew I had came in to celebrate
[Verse]
G C G
Not long after that I had a new suit on me back
D
A new red car outside the door and a telephone on the rack
G C G
The wife was wearing a blonde wig where her grey head used to be
D G
And the wellington trcks had disappeared from just below her knee
G C G
I sat down admiring the new dress that she wore
D
A brand new set of teeth she got installed the day before
G C G
Well I held her oh so tightly like when I was a Groom
D G
And we looked rich and graceful as we waltzed around trhe room
[Verse]
G C G
But then I got an awful shock, I thought I neary died
D
I spied me ugly missus as I opened up one eye
G C G
with rollers in her old grey head, she nearly made me sick
D G
Get up and Milk the cows she said, you raving lunatic
G C G
Twas then I realised that it was all a dream
D
The cows were mooing in the fileds and the cat was at the cream
G C G
Me bike was in the hedge and me trousers had a shine
D G
Twas lovely while it lasted, this winning dream of mine
C D G
Twas lovely while it lasted, this winning dream of mine
