Here's my interpretation of Charlie by Chumbawamba.
One of not very many songs written about Charles Darwin ;)
Hope you enjoy it! If you do, Charge your glass and drink a toast!
Verse 1
D
All of nature in it’s place by hand of the designer,
G Bm A D
Comes our Charlie, spins the world from here to Asia Minor,
D
In between the platypus and perfect Aphrodite,
G Bm A D
Charlie come with opposing thumb to question The Almighty,
Chorus
D
Over the river and over the sea,
Through holy storm and thunder,
G Bm
Steer a course for a brave new world
A D
Of common sense and wonder
G Bm
A D
Verse 2
D
See the dancing president, the congressman and teacher,
G Bm A D
Jumping to the music of the wealthy Midwest preacher,
D
Charlie come with a brand new dance, get on the floor and follow,
G Bm A D
Find yourself a partner and we’ll swing in to tomorrow
Chorus
Verse 3,
D
Armed with truth we’re stepping out, come join the worldwide party,
G Bm A D
Charge your glass and face the world, we’ll drink a toast to Charlie.
Chorus
