Title:				MATTIE'S RAG		(Gerry Rafferty)

		Dbm       Abm
		Oh Mattie open up the door
		A                E
		That's right I'm home again
		Dbm       Abm
		You got a big surprise in store
		A               E
		Turn 'round and count to ten

		A
		Wait till you see what I got you
		      F#
		We'll you'll say it's a magic thing
		A
		It's like ____ ____ ____ ____ ___ ___
		         B                  Ab
		You just wind it up and you start to sing

		Dbm        Abm
		I've been away for quite a while
		A                  E
		And I want to hear all your news
		Dbm         Abm
		Speak to me let me see you smile
		A                    E
		Cause I've had those home sick blues

		A
		When I go down to the city
		  F#
		I just don't know wrong from right
		A
		When I get back to you Mattie well
		B           Ab
		You make me see the light

		LEAD
		A
		Love is a singular thing
		       F#
		It can take you up or bring you down
		     A
		Yes, love is the song that I sing
		        B                    Ab
		So come on now Mattie listen to this sound

		Dbm           Abm
		When you grow up we'll sit and talk
		A             E
		Of how things used to be
		Dbm       Abm
		I'll be a grand old man of rock
		A              E
		With all these memories.
