The Caravan Song

Darren Hayman


Tom: F

F                Dm
Cathy drinks babycham
     Am                A#               F
In her lead-lined window three berth caravan
                C
She watches the hundred greatest
A#          F
TV Hits of '99

F                     Dm
Trevor drinks when he can
       Am             A#                  F
In the clubhouse on a Wednesday With his Mam
                  C
For three games of bingo
      A#                  F
And a fat stand-up with a covers band

[Chorus]
Dm                 A#
Oh they want to be free
Dm                     A#
But no-one knows what freedom means
        F                G                 A#        F
Oh they want somebody to tow their caravan far away
        F                G                  A#       F
Oh they want somebody to make their caravan rock and sway

[Verse]
F                 Dm
Cathy doesn't understand
        Am                 A#           F
How she reached the age of 50 without a man
              C
But she's got hobbies;
            A#                 F
She's got a life and a fake suntan

F                 Dm
Trevor kisses his Mum
   Am             A#
He Tucks her into bed
              F                  C
And she says, "Son You should be getting laid,
            A#                 F
Not sitting playing bingo with me"

[Chorus]
Dm                 A#
Oh they want to be free
Dm                     A#
But no-one knows what freedom means
        F                G                 A#        F
Oh they want somebody to tow their caravan far away
        F                G                  A#       F
Oh they want somebody to make their caravan rock and sway
