 Cadd9     G     Fmaj7     Gsus4  
  (C)     (G)     (F)       (G2)

The patterns for each chord go something like this.  
  
  
 C               G               F               G2  
  
-----0---3-0---------0---3-0---0---------------------------------  
---3-----------3---3---3-----3-----------1---------------3-1-----  
-------------------------------------2-----2---------0-------0---  
---------------------------------------3---------------0-------0-  
-3-----3---------------------------3---------------2-------------  
-----------------3---------------1-------------1-3---------------  
  
  
Then you play at twice the tempo for the outro  
(although instead, I quite like strumming it)  
Nice. 
 
  
INTRO:  
C	G	C	G  
  
  
VERSE1:  
{        C                  G  
Well I'm rumblin' in this JCB  
{   C                                G                }  
I'm 5 years old and my dad's a giant sittin' beside me  
{       F                            G2  }  
and the engine rattles my bum like berserk  
{                   F                               G2                }  
while we're singin' don't forget your shovel if you want to go to work  
  
  
VERSE2:  
{        C                          G  }  
My dad's probably had a bloody hard day  
{             C                         G           }  
but he's been good fun and bubblin' and jokin' away  
{          F                       G2  }  
and the procession of cars stuck behind  
{               F                           G2           }  
they're gettin' all impatient and angry but we don't mind  

{                        F                 G2  
And we're holdin' up the by-pass	oh-wo  
{                       F                  G2  
me and my dad havin' a top laugh	oh-wo  
{                  F                       G2  
I'm sittin' on the tool box		oh-wo  
{                          F         }  
an' I'm so glad I'm not in school boss  
{                   G2   }  
so glad I'm not in school

VERSE3: (same pattern as VERSE1)  
And we pull over and let the cars pass  
and pull off again speeding by this summer green grass  
and we're like giants up here in our big yellow digger  
like Zoids or Transformers or maybe even bigger  
  
  
VERSE4: (same pattern as VERSE1)  
An' I wanna transform into a Tyrannosaurus Rex  
and eat up all the bullies and the teachers and their pets  
an' I tell all my mates my dad's BA Baracus  
only with a JCB and Bruce Lee's nun chukas  
  
  
Chorus2: (same pattern as Chorus1)  
And we're holdin' up the by-pass	oh-wo  
me and my dad havin' a top laugh	oh-wo  
I'm sittin' on the tool box		oh-wo  
an' I'm so glad I'm not in school-boss  
so glad I'm not in school  
  
Chorus3: (same pattern as Chorus1)
