Riff A x2 VERSE 2 G Car crime's low, the gun crime's lower D The town hall band's CD, it's a grower C You never hear of folk getting knocked on the bonce Am D Although there was a drive by shouting once G But there's a brass band everywhere Em And I don't drive, so I don't care Am And as a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square D What's Chatteris if you're not there? Em - C - G - D - Daug Em - C - G - D - Daug Riff A x2 MIDDLE 4 G Like a game-bird reserve short on pheasants Em Weavers' cottages devoid of tenants Am A market town that lacks quintessence D That's Chatteris without your presence VERSE 3 G Three good butchers, two fine chandlers D An indoor pool and a first class cake shop C OFSTED plaudits, envy of the fens Am D Prick barriers at both ends G But what's Chatteris if you're not there? Em What's Chatteris if you're not there? Am What's Chatteris if you're not there? D What's Chatteris if you're not there? G What's Chatteris if you're not there? E What's Chatteris if you're not there? Am D G - D - G - D - G - D - G - D/F# - G I may as well be in Ely or St. Ives
