Georgie On A Spree Chords - Richard Thompson






Georgie On A Spree 

   A   D           B7   E 
Me mammy told me, Isabel, now dont stay out too late
A           D                B7            E 
One day theyll throw you out of school so get yourself a steady date
    C#               F#m          B7               E       
But Georgie meets me every night, we go out and we have a bite
C#                F#m             B7                  E       
Eyes of blue, and money too, hes rattling the garden gate,
    D            E
And I can hardly wait

Chorus:
     A                            D                    A 
When Georgies on a spree all the girls are jealous of me
      E                         F#m          B7                E      
Cause Im the one he spends his money on, we spend it, one two three,
A                            D            C#    
Driving in his Chevrolet Im perfect company
D                 A                  E              A  
Hes the king and Im his queen when Georgies on a spree.

We dont see bad company, we mix it with the best
Rubbing shoulders with the rich and no time for the rest
When I see something that I need my Georgie buys the street for me
And when were tired of the Ritz hes got a little nest
Where I put him to the test.

Chorus

One day Georgie hung his head and sadly he did say
Little girl, Im leaving you, I have to go away;
But Ill be back in a week or two and Ill be thinking just of you
Sit beside your telephone until that lucky day
When I come home to stay

Chorus +
Hes the king and Im his queen
When Georgies on a spree
