Verse
C#
He painted Salford Smokey tops,
A#m
On Cardboard boxes from the shops.
A#7 D#m
And parts of Ancolts where I used to play.
I’m sure he once walked down our street,
C#
Cause he painted kids who had nowt on their feet.
G# C# C# F# G#
The clothes he wore had all seen better days.
[Verse 2]
G# C#
Now they said his works of art were dull,
A#m
No room old lad the wall was full,
A#7 D#m
But Lowry didn’t care much any - way,
They said he just paints cats and dogs.
C#
And Match stalk men in boots and clogs,
G# C# G#
And Lowry said that’s just the way they’ll stay.
[Chorus]
C# D#m
And he painted Match stalk men and Match stalk cats and dogs,
G# C# G#
He painted kids on the corner of the streets with the sparking clogs,
C# D#m
And now he takes his brush and he waits out - side them factory gates,
G# C# G#
To paint his Match stalk men and Match stalk cats and dogs.
[Verse 3]
C#
Now canvas and brushes where wearing thin,
A#m
When London started calling him,
A#7 D#m
To come on down and wear the old flat cap,
They said tell us all about your ways,
C#
And all about them Salford days,
G# C# G#
Is it true you’re just an ordinary chap.
[Chorus]
C# D#m
And he painted Match stalk men and Match stalk cats and dogs,
G# C# G#
He painted kids on the corner of the streets with the sparking clogs,
C# D#m
And now he takes his brush and he waits out - side them factory gates,
G# C# G#
To paint his Match stalk men and Match stalk cats and dogs.
[Verse 4]
C#
Now Lowry's hang upon the wall,
A#m
Be - side the greatest of them all,
A#7 D#m
And even the Mona Lisa takes a bow,
This tired old man with hair like snow,
C#
Told northern folk its time to go,
G# C# G#
The fever came and the good Lord mopped his brow.
[Chorus]
G# C# D#m
And he left us Match stalk men and Match stalk cats and dogs,
G# C# G#
He left us kids on the corner of the streets with the sparking clogs
C# D#m
Now he takes his brush and he waits out - side them pearly gates,
G# C# A#
To paint his Match stalk men and Match stalk cats and dogs.
[Chorus]
