Intro: C  F G  C  F G  C 

C                 F        G         C       F 
Girlfriend's said that she no longer likes me 
C        F        G               C 
Reckon I know why she thinks this way: 
                C    F                 C 
It's 'cos I'm a trog, and I've got mad sideys 
F              C                 G    G7 
And my gait is strange - so they say. 


C                 F      G             C           F 
Some blokes don't neatly stencil their flight case 
C                     F          G              C 
And some blokes don't take apart valve amps for fun 
                  C   F                   C 
But when you're a trog and you've got mad sideys 
F                C                 G    G7 
And your gait is strange - so they say. 


C          Bb              F          G7 
And when I swear it's in a mellow way 
C          Bb        F                 C 
Swiss Army knife and every shade of Humbrol 
           Bb             F        G7 
To Point of Ayr I like to get away 
C         Bb       F                C     
And in my dreams I take a beautiful girl. 


C  F G  C  F G  C 

C          F         G           C     F 
Got my weed and I've got my Sven Hassel 
C            F       G         C 
Omni stacked tenfold under the bed 
            C    F                 C 
In my rugby shirt signed by Justin Hayward 
F               C             G    G7 
I will rule the world playing Risk. 


C                 F               G         C        F 
I was born with a twelve string acoustic in my mouth 
C             F              G           C 
Midwife fixed springs to the soles of my feet 
              C   F                 C 
And now I'm a trog and I've got mad sideys 
F              C                 G    G7 
And my gait is strange - so they say. 


C          Bb              F          G7 
And when I swear it's in a mellow way 
C          Bb        F                 C 
Swiss Army knife and every shade of Humbrol 
            Bb            F        G7 
To Point of Ayr I like to get away 
C         Bb       F                C 
And in my dreams I take a beautiful girl.
