Topic: Sausage in a Bun

I decided to try and write something lighter and more cheerful for a change. I nearly threw this out a couple of times but a couple of people who played it liked it so here it is. Note Pate is purposefully miss pronounced as pait.

WARNING ABOUT THE LANGUAGE

Sausage in a Bun

[G7]Don't feed me caviar, or a [C]quail egg on a plate
[G7]Not into chicken liver and [C]cognac flavoured pate
[G7]You can stuff your champagne [C]until you pop your cork
[G]Give me as sausage, a [C]sausage full of pork

Chorus:
[E7]A sausage in a bun is what [A7]I want to eat
[E7]Not that Vegetarian stuff, [A7]a sausage full of meat

[D7]It must have lips and as***oles [G7] dripping lumps of fat
[D7]Tomato sauce and onions, [G7]put mustard on that?
[E7]cooked on a bar-be-que, [A7] that ain't been cleaned in years
[E7]by a guy who's spent the whole [A7]day drinking heaps of beers

[G7]A sausage cooked in lard, [C]one side underdone
[G7]cooked on a bar-be-que [C]outside in the sun

Chorus

[G7]A sausage in a bun, give me a [A7]sausage in a bun
[E7]I'll sit here eating sausages [A7]and sitting in the sun

[G7]Don't feed me caviar, or a [C]quail egg on a plate
[G7]Not into chicken liver and [C]cognac flavoured pate
[G7]You can stuff your champagne [C]until you pop your cork
[G]Give me as sausage, a [C]sausage full of pork

[G7]A sausage in a bun, give me a [A7]sausage in a bun
[E7]I'll sit here eating sausages [A7]and drinking in the sun

Re: Sausage in a Bun

I played it before I listened to in and gave it a bluesy touch.

I like it... It might be good on the harp also.

Thank you for that.

Thanks Chordie for the years of music and advise.

Re: Sausage in a Bun

Now I've got a hunger for sausage in a bun and a yearning to play my guitar, how do I do both at the same time. I'm gonna give it a go on the 12er this afternoon.

Live in the "now" - a contentment of the moment - the past is gone - the future doesn't exist - all we ever really have is now and it's always "now".
