Squeeze - Splitting Into Three Chords

[Intro]
G
 
 
[Verse 1]
D
My dad he drives a tipper
C                          D
For the factory down the lane
D
And every June or July
C
He takes two weeks in Spain
Em           D         Em
He hangs his dirty trousers
       Bm
On the bathroom door
C                    A
Where his girlfriend puts her hair up
C          G
Bath water on the floor
D
My dad goes down the river
C                      D
Each Sunday with his boat
D
And him with Roy and Kevin
C                        Em
Drop beer crates on a rope
              D
He comes back from the river
Em                   Bm
But his girlfriend's up the pub
C           Am
So all this fish go flying
C                 G
And he storms out in a huff
 
 
[Chorus]
Em           D           C               D
My dad liked Lulu and my mum liked Simon Dee
Em               D          C              D
We used to sit together and watch them on TV
Em                D              C              G
Then one day it's over and we're splitting into three
 
 
[Verse 2]
D
Sometimes I stay with my mum
C                       D
Her boyfriend's such a sap
                        C
He once bought me a new rod
C
That I gave to my dad
Em           D
He makes out that he likes me
Em        Bm
I know it isn't true
C
He's got some stupid stories
          G
About the teds he knew
D
My dad and me went drinking
C                   D
My mum turned up alone
D
She said she couldn't take it
C
His car bits in the home
Em             D
I heard them arrange a meeting
Em        Bm
For later in the day
C        Am
I wonder if they'll make up
C         G
And be in love again
 
 
[Chorus]
Em           D           C               D
My dad liked Lulu and my mum liked Simon Dee
Em               D          C              D
We used to sit together and watch them on TV
Em            D              A              G
Suddenly it's over and we're splitting into three
 
 
 
[Bridge]
Em           D
I can see my mum in his arms
  Am             B7
A smile upon her face
  Em                   Bm
I never thought they'd ever make up
    C           G
And be in love again
 
 
[Interlude]
Em  D  Am  B
Em  Bm  C  G
 
 
[Chorus]
Em           D           C               D
My dad liked Lulu and my mum liked Simon Dee
Em               D          C              D
We used to sit together and watch them on TV
Em                 G              C              G
Then one day  it's over and we're splitting into three
 
 
[Outro]
G                   C   G
