Intro 1
D
Verse 1
G
D
January morning in 1974
A
I was thinking about the sort of life I'd led
G
D
And whether I could take much more
A
Why they'd even burn my breakfast
D
A
E
B
I could smell it through the floor
Em
Then I opened my eyes
and to my surprise
A
There was smoke coming in my door
D
Smoke coming in my door
and I shook my head
G
And then I looked in the adjoining room
D
A
And when I saw the flames in the ceiling
G
D
I was sure my house was doomed
A
So I ran like hell to the top of the stairs
D
E
B
And I began to shout
Em
Send for the Middleton Fire Brigade
E
A
To put this fire out,
A
Then I ran down and grabbed
my hose from the cellar
G
D
And I ran back up to the fire
A
But to my dismay there was
not enough pressure
G
D
And she just wouldn't go any higher
A
So I ran around in circles
for a minute or two
D
And then I saved a bottle of rum
B
Em
Cos I knew I could do with a drink or two
E
While I was waiting for help to come
A
D
Waiting for help to come
A
And when we saw you cresting
the top of the hill
G
D
Why, we ought to have raised a cheer
A
But we weren't feeling very cheery then
G
D
So maybe we can do it here
A
Because we would like to thank you
D
B
For coming to our aid
Em
G
E
With a hooray for the
A
D
Middleton Fire Brigade
Em
G
E
With a hoo ray for the
A
D
Middleton Fire Brigade
A
All my neighbours came in
the smoke and flame
G
from miles and miles around
D
A
And they saved all my books
and my precious things
G
and laid them gently on the ground
D
A
And I guess that I like to sing this song
D
B
to thank the whole darn crew
Em
All the good men of Mount Hanley,
E
A
and their good women too,
D
and their good women too.
E
A
And when we saw you
cresting the top of the hill,
G
D
why we ought to have raised a cheer.
A
But we weren't feeling very cheery then,
G
so maybe we can do it here.
D
A
Because we would like to thank you
D
G
B
for coming to our aid

G
With a hoo ray for the
A
D
Middleton Fire Brigade
A
Now most people say it's a pretty ill wind
G
D
that never blows no one no good
A
And ever since the fire
my life has been going
G
just the way I always hoped it would
D
A
Yes it really would amaze you
D
B
just how my luck has changed
Em
Since the January day
E
when I met the boys of the
A
Middleton Fire Brigade,
D
the Middleton Fire Brigade
A
And there's one more thing
that I would like to add
G
before I take my leave of you
D
A
That's to thank the boys from NICTOR
G
who came to help us too
D
A
Yes, I would like to thank you all again
D
B
for coming to our aid
Em
G
E
With a hooray for the
A
D
Middleton Fire Brigade
Em
G
E
And a hooray for the Nict
A
D
or Fire Brigade
Em
G
E
A
And a hooray for Evelyn Fire Brigade
