VERSE
D                  A
 I was born in the north of England
      Bm                  G
I was raised in a working town
  D                        A
I broke all the rules when I went to school
        Bm                        E/G#
But the teacher's couldn't pin me down


BRIDGE
A                   D
 I tried to make my parents proud
    F#                 Bm
By adapting the social powers
    D                     A
Oh, pigs will fly and the Earth will fry
          G                   E/G#
When they get me doing honest hours


CHORUS
Bm          E         A              D
 Snookeroo, Snookeroo, daddy's going on the booze
Bm                    E        A              G/B      A/C#
Mother used to cut my hair and sister used to make the news
             Bm               G
Well, it was two rooms up and two rooms down
        E/G#                      A
We were sentenced by the wrecking crane
          D           A/C#   Bm   A
Oh, I was born on the eve of Halloween
   Bm          E          A                    C G/B | A | % | 
And Snookeroo, Snookeroo, Snookeroo's my name  (break)


VERSE
D                  A
 I need someone to cook for me
    Bm              G
And turn me lose at night
D                            A
I could spend my life with a factory girl
         Bm                E/G#
'Cause a factory girl's my type


BRIDGE
A                   D
 I hear them gossip on the street
F#                       Bm
Most of what they say is true
    D                     A
Oh, don't you know that I hear them say
                 G                   E/G#
"There goes that lazy, no good Snookeroo"

Bm                    E        A              G/B      A/C#
Mother used to cut my hair and sister used to make the news
             Bm               G
Well, it was two rooms up and two rooms down
        E/G#                      A
We were sentenced by the wrecking crane
          D           A/C#   Bm   A
Oh, I was born on the eve of Halloween
   Bm          E          A                    C   G/B | A | % | 
And Snookeroo, Snookeroo, Snookeroo's my name (Snooke - roo)
