As I camped out one evening to take the midnight air
                               A              B
I heard a maiden grieving from somewhere over there

Ever since the chattering classes invaded Hebden Bridge
    A                   E                  F#                  B
And priced the likes of me and mine to the pots of the Pennine Ridge
   A                      E                  A             E
To South East Wales I was forced to flee and now I have no job
                       A          B7                     E
That's why tonight I'm sitting on top of Lord Hereford's Knob.

                              B                E
For you I'd waive expenses to try and help you out

I can't recall having ever been cuckolded quite like this
  A              E                  A
I gave up hope ironically for Lent,
     E                  A         B7                   E
Come see me living in a bivvie if you're ever up Pen-Y-Ghent.
