Bloke
by Chris Franklin
Note: I Play the E as a slide in from D# to E (on the D string) simply because i think it sound right,
but playing a normal E works fine too. This is only in the verses.
Listen to the song and you'll know what i mean.
There's also some light distortion over the chorus'.
Intro: A, E D x2
A E D
I hate the new age guys
A E D
I'm a chauvinist, I live on beer and pies
F#m
Tried to tell you but you look at me, like maybe,
B D
I'm an angel underneath, haven't brushed me teeth.
A E D
Yesterday I lied
A E D
But all me mates gave me a real good alibi
Thanks guys (No Worries!)
F#m B
I really went out drinking, I told you I was at work
D
Don't ask me for commitment;
D (Build Up)
'Cause it's something I will shirk
Chorus 1:
A
I'm a bloke, I'm an ocker
E
And I really love your knockers
F#m D
I'm a labourer by day, I piss up all me pay
A E
Watching footy on TV, Just feed me more VB
F#m D
Just pour my beer and get my smokes and go away
A E D
Or take me as I am
A E D
This may mean you'll have to fetch another can
F#m
Rest assured, that if I start to make you breakfast
B
I'm going to extremes
D D (Build Up)
but tomorrow I'll get shitfaced, and today won't mean a thing
Chorus 2:
A
I'm a bloke, I'm a yobbo
E
and me best mate's name is Robbo
F#m D
Winfield is me cigarette, I dress in flannelette
A E
Shearer's singlet that is blue, throw in a few tattoos
F#m D
You know you wouldn't want me any other way
Solo: A E F#m D x2
E
When you think, you've got me figured out
F#m D
The season's already changing (From footy to cricket)
E F#m
I think it's cool, when I act like a tool
D
And my mates try to shave me
Chorus 1:
A
I'm a bloke, I'm an ocker

I'm a labourer by day, I piss up all me pay
A E
Watching footy on TV, Just feed me more VB
