[Intro]

[Verse 1]
A
We got the 7 inch single the long-playing album
D
The 12" disco mix
E
Just put it on the jukebox grab yourself a lager
A
See what the needle predicts
We had the country and western a dodgy little section
D
With Jerry Lee Lewis and gang
A
From a jack to a king to secure prison wing
E A
But still the whole tavern they sang
[Pre-Chorus]
N.C. D A
Dolly Parton was queen Billy Joel the boss
E
We were uptown downtown little bit of Motown
A
With Marvin Gaye and Diana Ross
N.C. D A
All the punters would sing and you'd be joinin' in too
E A
Red red wine everybody hurts and don't it make your brown eyes blue
[Chorus]
N.C. A E
So barman don't be a tease now we're down on our knees
D Bm A E
Plug that Wurlitzer back in for the he's and the she's
N.C. A E
Well we're begging you please for the Peter and Lees
D Bm A E
Stick another 50p in and make it out and out cheese
[Instrumental]
A A A A
[Verse 2]
A
Then there were the tightwads going to the jukebox
D
Put in solitary 5p
E
Worked out that Pink Floyd anything by Meatloaf
A
Was longer than your 10cc
Arguing the B side's better than the A side
D
Denying what you actually put on
A
Pretending that you hate it you don't even rate it
E A
But catch yourself singin' along
[Pre-Chorus]
N.C. D A
Neil Diamond was king Elton John number 1
E
It was a working class hymn but the
A
One congregation the Church really wished to be gone
N.C. D A
We sang give peace a chance with Yoko Ono and John
E
Saturday night's alright for fighting
A
And where have all the boot boys gone
[Chorus]
N.C. A E
So barman don't be a tease now we're down on our knees
D Bm A E
Plug that Wurlitzer back in for the he's and the she's
N.C. A E
Well we're begging you please for the Peter and Lees
D Bm A E
Stick another 50p in and make it out and out cheese
[Instrumental]
