Matchstalk Men and Matchstalk Cats and Dogs Ukulele Chords
He [C] painted Salford’s smokey tops
On [Am] cardboard boxes from the shop
And [A] parts of Ancoats [A7] where I used to [Dm] play
I’m [F] sure he once walked down our street
for he [C] painted kids with nowt on their feet
The [G] clothes they wore had all seen better [C] days.
Now they said his works of art were dull,
no [Am] room and all the walls were full,
But [A] Lowry didn’t [A7] care much any[Dm]way,
They [F] said he just paints cats and dogs
and [C] matchstalk men in boots and clogs
And [G] Lowry said that’s just the way they’ll [C] stay. [G]
And he painted [C] matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and [F] dogs,
He painted [G] kids on the corner of the street who were sparking [C] clogs, [G]
Now he [C] takes his brush and he waits out-[F]side those factory gates
To paint his [G] matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and [C] dogs.
[C] Now canvas and brushes were wearing thin
when [Am] London started calling him
To [A] come on down and [A7] wear the old flat [Dm] cap,
They said [F] tell us all about your ways and all a[C]bout those Salford days
Is it [G] true you’re just an ordinary [C] chap? [G]
And he painted [C] matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and [F] dogs,
He painted [G] kids on the corner of the street who were sparking [C] clogs, [G]
Now he [C] takes his brush and he waits out-[F]side those factory gates
To paint his [G] matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and [C] dogs.
Now [C] Lowrys hang upon the [Am] wall be-[F]side the greatest of them all
And [A7] even the Mona Lisa takes a [Dm] bow,
This [F] tired old man with hair like snow told [C] northern folk it’s time to go,
The [G] fever came and the good Lord mopped his [C] brow . [G]
And he painted [C] matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and [F] dogs,
He painted [G] kids on the corner of the street who were sparking [C] clogs, [G]
Now he [C] takes his brush and he waits out-[F]side those factory gates
To paint his [G] matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and [C] dogs.
[D] And he left us matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and [Em]dogs,
And he left us [A] kids on the corner of the street who were sparking [D] clogs, [A]
Now he [D] takes his brush and he waits out-[Em]side those pearly gates
To paint his [A] matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and [D] dogs.
