Intro  Guitar G C G/B D/A x1, then piano with guitar G C G/B D/A x2

G                                    
Granny's always ravin' and rantin'
                             C       
And she's always puffin' and pantin'
          G                                
And she's always screaming and shouting
          D                 G D G        
And she's always brewing up tea

Grand...pappy's never late for his dinner
Cos he loves his leg of beef
And he washes it down with a brandy
And a fresh made pot of tea

             G C G  C  G D            G
Have a cuppa tea_______, have a cuppa tea
             G C G  C  G D            G
Have a cuppa tea_______, have a cuppa tea
     G                           D7    G
Halleluja, halleluja, halleluja, Rosie Lea
     G                           D7    G
Halleluja, halleluja, halleluja, Rosie Lea

Interlude  G  C  G   D7    G    then vamp on G

If you feel a bit under the weather
If you feel a little bit peeved
Take Granny's stand-by potion
For any old cough or wheeze

It's a cure for hepatitis,
It's a cure for chronic insomnia
It's a cure for tonsilitis
And for water on the knee

Have a cuppa tea_______, have a cuppa tea
Halleluja, halleluja, halleluja, Rosie Lea
Halleluja, halleluja, halleluja, Rosie Lea

Interlude  G  C  G   D7    G 

G                                       C            G
Tea in the morning, tea in the evening, tea at suppertime
        G      
You get tea when it's raining, tea when it's snowing
A                      D
Tea when the weather's fine
        G
You get tea as a mid-day stimulant
        C                       B
You get tea with your afternoon tea
    C               G    E7  (or Em7?)
For any old ailment or disease
    A7        D7           G
For Chrissake have a cuppa tea



Halleluja, halleluja, halleluja, Rosie Lea
Halleluja, halleluja, halleluja, Rosie Lea

Interlude  G  C  G   D    G    then vamp on G

Whatever the situation, whatever the race or creed
Tea knows no segregation, no class nor pedigree
It knows no motivation, no sect or organisation
It knows no one religion, nor political belief

Have a cuppa tea_______, have a cuppa tea
Have a cuppa tea_______, for chrissake have a cuppa tea
Halleluja, halleluja, halleluja, Rosie Lea
Halleluja, halleluja, halleluja, Rosie Lea
Halleluja, halleluja, halleluja, Rosie Lea
