When an Old Cricketer
[Song: Roy Harper "When An Old Cricketer Leaves The Crease"] [Transcription by Gordon Walker ]
When an Old Cricketer Leaves the Crease (Harper) ---------------------------------------
When the day is done, and the ball has spun C Fmaj7 In the umpire's pocket away, C Dm And all remains, in the groundsman's pains, C Fmaj7 For the rest of time and a day. C G There'll be one mad dog and his master, pushing for 4 with the spin. C Em C Dm On a dusty pitch, with two pounds six, of willowwood in the sun. C Fmaj7 C G
When an old cricketer leaves the crease, you never know whether he's gone, C Fmaj7 C Dm If maybe you're catching a fleeting glimpse, of a twelfth man at silly mid-on. C Fmaj7 C G And it could be Geoff, and it could be John, C Fmaj7 With a new ball sting in his tail. C Dm And it could be me, and it could be thee, C Fmaj7 And it could be the sting in the ale.........sting in the ale. C G Fmaj7
Solo on verse
Verse 2 (chords as above - sorry don't have the words to hand)
Chorus (as above) --
Chord note for for beginners: All chords played as normally given in any book in standard tuning in 1st position (ie at the bottom of the neck - which is physically the top if you're holding the neck upwards!). Note that Roy plays G with 4 fingers - fingering D on the B string, which makes the chord sound nicer (you dont get the jump from B up to G for the top two strings - if any notes are to be missed out of a chord, better to miss the 3rd(B) than the 5th(D) in general) i.e.:
............playing D instead of open B : \/ =========== |_|_|_|_|_| |_1_|_|_|_| 2_|_|_|_3_4 |_|_|_|_|_|
