First tab so if anyone has a better chord suggestion I'll change it. The second version is spoken and is just the F#m barre chord progression is the same fingering just shifted up 8 times twice.



D                                    A               D
This is the story of Blinky Bill and Flap and Nutsy too.
G                    D             E		A
And Wombo, Rough and Marcia and Splodge the kangaroo.
D                                       A             D
Now they all live in Green Patch Town as happy as can be
G                           D             E		   A
With friends and neighbors all around the same as you and me.

F#m                   Gm                 G#m                Am
But then one dark and gloomy night, when all the bush was still, 
A#m                   Bm                 Cm                 C#m
Some bandits came and stole the trees to feed their woodchip mill! 
F#m                   Gm                 G#m                Am
And when at last the morning came, the timber trucks moved on, 
A#m                   Bm                 Cm                 C#m
And there, where Greenpatch used to be, the little town was gone!

D           A    D     G                  D
Hey, hey, Blinky Bill- save us from that woodchip mill. 
E                                               A
If you don't do it, no one will—good old Blinky Bill... 
D           A    D     G                  D      
Hey, hey, Blinky Bill- get in there and fight until 
E                                                     A
We're safely back on Greenpatch hill, good old Blinky Bill! 

So come and see what happens next to Blinky and his friends, 
But ten-to-one you'll never guess the way the story ends. 
Watch Blinky help to save the bush, and replant every tree- 
So come on, we'll rebuild the town; just you watch and see! 

Hey, hey, Blinky Bill- save us from that woodchip mill. 
If you don't do it, no one will—good old Blinky Bill... 
Hey, hey, Blinky Bill- get in there and fight until 
We're safely back on Greenpatch hill, good old Blinky Bill! 

(musical interlude) 

Hey, hey, Blinky Bill- save us from that woodchip mill. 
If you don't do it, no one will—good old Blinky Bill... 
Hey, hey, Blinky Bill- get in there and fight until 
We're safely back on Greenpatch hill, good... old... Blinky Bill! 

(spoken) Good on ya, Blinky!
