G                     D         Em    C 
Sandra woeked at the local hotel 
G                     D 
Brought up near the bright lights 
Em             C 
Down where the tears fell 
Em           C 
She'd seen Kevin playing pool  
Em                       C      D     C 
But she was never one to suffer fools gladly 
D                 C     D 
But she loved him madly 
 
G            D                     Em   C 
Kevin had a chain tattooed on his neck 
G                  D 
Knew Sandra was a lonesome girl 
Em                 C 
Knew her life was a wreck 
Em                  C 
He took her out one Saturday night  
Em                  C     D      C 
The TNT sign burned holes in her eyes 
D                   C          D 
He could tell such bitter lies 
 
CHORUS 
C                         G 
Gotta follow that trusted rule 
        D             C 
You get me and I get you 
                       G   D  C 
Theres nothing much to say ay ay 
                D 
Sandra's on the way 
                G 
Sandra's on the way 
 
 
G           D                 Em    C 
She left school when she was fifteen 
G           D 
Got a job downtown 
Em                   C 
she was the hip chick on the scene 
Em                      C 
Then one day at home her mum walked out 
Em                    C             D       C 
Her whole world came crashing down around her knees 
D           C         D     
So much for TV families 
 
G                  D                        Em  C 
Kevin swept the street he was a knockabout bloke 
G                           D 
He could tell a girl by the look in her eye 
Em                  C 
He could tell a good joke 
Em            C                  
Spent half his wages on the drink 
Em                   C     D      C 
Never took time to think a future plan 
D                         C           D       
He rode the world in the bottom of his hand 
 
CHORUS 
G           D              Em  C 
Eighteen months down the track 
G                       D 
Kevin and Sandras got a little girl 
Em               C 
And a Housing Commission flat 
Em                C 
But they don't do nothing no more 
Em                       C      D     C 
Just fight out their own lonely little wars 
D           C 
Behind that door  
D                    C 
Up on the sixteenth floor    
 
D    C    D    C  
 
 
 
 
..............And they were married in the summertime... 
Go the Rabbitohs! \../
