VERSE 1
G
One way system, smooth and commendable
D
Go by bus, they're highly dependable
C
The swings in the park for the kids have won awards
Am D
The clean streets, acknowledged in the Lords
G
But what's a park if you can't see a linnet
Em
A timetable if your journey's infinite
Am
My bag's packed and I'm leaving in a minute
D
For what is Chatteris without you in it?
Riff A x2
VERSE 2
G
Car crime's low, the gun crime's lower
D
The town hall band's CD, it's a grower
C
You never hear of folk getting knocked on the bonce
Am D
Although there was a drive by shouting once
G
But there's a brass band everywhere
Em
And I don't drive, so I don't care
Am
And as a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
D
What's Chatteris if you're not there?

Riff A x2
MIDDLE 4
G
Like a game-bird reserve short on pheasants
Em
Weavers' cottages devoid of tenants
Am
A market town that lacks quintessence
D
That's Chatteris without your presence
VERSE 3
G
Three good butchers, two fine chandlers
D
An indoor pool and a first class cake shop
C
OFSTED plaudits, envy of the fens
Am D
Prick barriers at both ends
G
But what's Chatteris if you're not there?
Em
What's Chatteris if you're not there?
Am
What's Chatteris if you're not there?
D
What's Chatteris if you're not there?
G
What's Chatteris if you're not there?
E
What's Chatteris if you're not there?

I may as well be in Ely or St. Ives
