D                      G                  D  F C
When I was young they gave me a mongrel piano
  D                  G                  C G F#
Spent all my time inventing the cup of tea.
 Bm                       Em
Writing your name in the sea
 D                    Bm  E
Banging my favourite head.

Missing the last bed, waving the cheery herring
Balancing brass bands on the tip of my toe
Phoning your home from a tree
Drinking my fav'rite loch

When I was old, they gave me a model factory
I met three salads on the motorway
Leaving your name at the door
Breaking my fav'rite egg

Missing the walrus, sharing my last banana
Balancing zeppelins on the end of my nose
Calling your name in the zoo
Blowing my fav'rite mind
