F Troop – Archie Roach
[Intro]
C Am F C
[Verse 1]
Am F C
I was only fifteen years, when I met my brother
C Am G
He looked at me, and his face lit up with joy
C Am F C
After the tears, he talked about our mother
G C
Held me close and whispered ‘Butter Boy'
C7
[Chorus 1]
F C
I remember drinking wine, and talking with my brother
G C C7
I had a drink, then he didn't think I should
F C
I told him I could handle it, and I said ‘let's get another'
G F C
Sitting in the kitchen, in Dight Street Collingwood
[Verse 2]
C Am F C
We'd take a walk to Fitzroy, early in the morning
C Am G
When sometimes family life became a strain
C Am F C
We'd stand outside the cellars Greeting friends we knew were coming
G C
Grabbed a quart, and walked to Charcoal Lane
C7
[Chorus 2]
F C
I remember sitting in the laneway with my brother
G C C7
Sharing cigarettes and company
F C
Drinking with some friends we knew Who said they knew our father
G F C
Sitting in the laneway, my brother and me
[Verse 3]
