The Last Of The English Roses

[Verse]

      C#m                A                           C#m
Oh my you did look dapper in your mothers old green scarf
                   A                      C#m
with your famous Aunty, Arthurs trousers on
                     A                      C#m
Got slapped by that slapper and we all laughed
                A              E
But she laughed the loudest oh in 93

You could charm the bees nees of the bees
 C#m             A                    C#m                          A
"Cheeky" you'd say and we all fell around, rolling 'round the playground,
C#m              A                   C#m                            A
"Saucy" you'd say and we all fell around, rolling 'round the playground.
E
In 94


[Bridge]

E
We all sang

Skipping and dancing hand in hand


[Pre-Chorus]

  D                            E
Yeah it was all the boys together
D                        E
and all the girls together


[Chorus]

 A              E         D     A
She's the last of the english ro-oses
 A              E         D     A
She's the last of the english ro-oses

[Verse]

  C#m                         A                                C#m
She knows her Rodneys from her Stanleys and her Kappas from her Reebok
                         A                           C#m    A
And her tit from her tat and her Winstons from her Enoks
            E
It’s fine and take what I, coming out, coming alive

 C#m                        A                          C#m
And round the Snooker table she danced the Frutti-Tutti
                           A                                 C#m
And she almost spilled her lager toasting girls of great beauty


[Bridge]

E
But the closing moved by

Coming of age, coming alive


[Pre-Chorus]

  D                            E
Yeah it was all the boys together
D                        E
and all the girls together


[Chorus]

 A              E         D     A
She's the last of the english ro-oses
 A              E         D     A
She's the last of the english ro-oses

 A              E         D     A
She's the last of the english ro-oses
 A              E         D     A
She's the last of the english ro-oses
