[Verse 1]
Little song about [B]a man
called Gough and [F#m]a little boy who wanted to [D]be
Tarred with the same brush
[A]He learnt Latin, held his hea[B]d up high and
[F#m]he hated the Liberals tho' he[D]
Didn't know [A]why
There were reas[Bsus4]ons - how[G]
long have you [D]got?
There are al[A]ways [Bsus4]reasons
[B]- h[G]ow long have you got[D]?
[A]The little boy's on the[B] stage tonight,
his name is An[F#m]thony Hayes and
[D]He's doing alright
They both [A]went to the same loc[B]al Canberra school,
but [F#m]Stevie [G]was [F#m]nine i[D]n[A]

What a [Bsus4]party - a big[G] day for both of us[D]
A big [A]reason to party [Bsus4]- a
[B]big [G]day for both of [D]us[B]
Come over have dinner with me,
we'll play [G]chess and drink claret
[B]Walk slowly down my little street,
can [G]you bring [A]Mar[B]garet?[F#m][D][A][B][G]
[D][G][A][G][C][A][G][A][G][A]

a [F#m]bushranger was slaughtered [D]and Gough
Was betrayed
[A]November [B]11 - he wouldn't [Bsus4]survive
[F#m]the Governor - General [D]in '75
Novem[A]ber [Bsus4]11 - a big[B]
[G]day for all of [D]us
Novem[A]ber [Bsus4]11 - Ned [B]Kelly died, ah[G]h shame Fraser shame and [D]we all [A]cried[B][G][D]
