----------------------------
Intro:
Play the A barre chord a couple of times, 
lifting your fingers to mute it in rhythm 
(listen to the CD to get the rhythm of this 
bit and the verse rhythm right)
Verse 1:
A
                               D
I got camping eyes in the final hour. 
                                  Bm
Last minute shoppers picking cauliflower
                          D
                        
They fuss they make you'd swear they were 
         A
buying a car
A
                              D
Always moan, moan it's not too cheap. 
                                      Bm
Cheaper still, cheaper still down the street
                            D
I lose my rag and tell them take you're bag 
              A
and shop down there. 
A
                                  D
Closing down, closing down another road
                           Bm
One way, system steals the show. Mac the 
              D
knife swigs a can and sings the day away
Chorus:
        A
There's more life, more life, more life, 
     D          E
in a tramps vest
        A
There's more life, more life, more life, 
     D          E
in a tramps vest
Verse 2: (same chords as verse 1)
Flower man sits down in the street. 
Surrounded by the stock he bought last week
Bring back the ladies wearing lipstick on their teeth. 
Make up, make up a crappy joke
Sit back, relax and have a smoke. 
Mac the knife swigs a can and sings the day away
Chorus:
        A
There's more life, more life, more life, 
     D          E
in a tramps vest   (x4)

I got camping eyes in the final hour.

      (x4)
