    Am                                  Bm
The first time we met you were a kennel maid
    Am                              G
You gave me a tip I got me forecast paid
         Am                                 Bm
You were holding a greyhound in trap number one
     Am                            Bm   Am   G
Your white coat was shining in the afternoon sun

          Em     D
Now we're both together
      Em                D
We're never gonna break apart, no no

               C            D       Am
'Cause we're a happy couple you and me
       C            D      Am
With a greyhound at either knee

| Am         Bm    | Am     Bm Am G G   |

I'll have ten shillings to win on Camera Flash, young man
What dog's that? It's a deuce, look at it

          G          D/F#  Em  C         D   Dsus4  D
There was nothing in my life bigger than beer
There was nothing in my life bigger than beer

         Em          D
'Ceptin' you, little darling
         Em          D
'Ceptin' you, little darling
        C            D       Am
We're a happy couple you and me
       C            D      Am
With a greyhound at either knee

We go to the dog track on Saturday night
We put all our money on a dog that we like
A kiss and a cuddle, a hot meat pie
Two dollar tickets and a starry sky

There was nothing in my life bigger than beer
There was nothing in my life bigger than beer
'Ceptin' you, little darling
'Ceptin' you, little darling
We're a happy couple you and me
With a baby on either knee.

Am         Bm  Am  G   G     Em     B
Ya da da da da...

         Em         D
Yes it's you little darling,
         C          Bm
Yes it's you little darling,
         C          D
Now it's you little darling,
         E
Now it's you.

Girl, where's me wage packet oh, yes, here it is,
Ah, I'll put twenty-five knicker, please, on Gallop Printer
Oh, I hope the wife don't find out.
Yes, it's sure to win, isn't it?
Yes, I know, it's a good dog, I saw it run at White City,
Just last week, broke the record, Gallop Printer.
Nice dog, yes, lovely form, lovely buttocks.
