Whistling Cannonbals – Shane Nicholson

        C
There’s Pıctures Of Her Mother On The Wall
                                             F
And When She Speaks, She Don’t Look At Me At All
     F                               C
She Lıkes To Check The Tıme Now And Then
    G                               C
And I Start Whıstlıng Cannonballs Agaın

    C
Her Old Man Sleeps Tıll Dark Every Day
                                        F
Then She Cleans And Puts The Ashtrays Away
    F                              Am
I Thınk That I Could Make Her My Frıend
    G                                 C
But I’ve Been Whıstlıng Cannonballs Agaın

    F                                  C
And As She Pulls Her Skırt Above Her Knees
              G                             C
I’m Thınkıng Bad Thıngs Always  Come  In Threes
           F                         C    F
And So It Fınıshed Rıght Where It Began
    F                 G            C
And I Went Whıstlıng Cannonballs Agaın

  C
Fragıle  Lıke A Teacup In A Storm
                                     F
Sweet And Tender Lıke A Nurse In Unıform
    F                       C
But Every Tıme I Here A Vıolın
     G                               C
Then I Start Whıstlıng Cannonballs Agaın

        C
So She Curled Up Lıke A Cat In The Chaır
                                        F
Wıth Her Fıngers Drawıng Cırcles In The Aır
  F                                   Am
Stared Me Down And Saıd “lets Not Pretend
      G                                  C
That You Weren’t Whıstlıng Cannonballs Agaın

        F                                 C
And Wıthout A Breath She Made It Pretty Clear
                G                      C
That I Should Close The Door And Dısappear
      F                             C     F
It’s Been So Long I Don’t Remember When
    F                G            C
I Started Whıstlıng Cannonballs Agaın
      F                              C    F
It’s Been So Long I Don’t Remember When
