A D | D | (x2)
[Verse 1]
A
Spreads so easy like peanut butter
D
Talks the birds from the trees
A D A
Keeps her heart for a one man lover
D
Crosses her hands on her knees
G E
She likes her ball on the end of her bat
A
The old man's getting his ’yap yap yap yap yap’
[Chorus]
D E
(Yap, yap, yap) On the doorstep
D E
(Yap, yap, yap) Under the washing line
D E
(Yap, yap, yap) Every evening
D E A
(Yap, yap, yap) She never keeps a closing time
[Verse 2]
A
Smells like the inside of her handbag
D
Melts her way through your ears
A
Keeps her colour with a health light suntan
D
She's never been away for twenty years
G E
Her master's voice with his rolls of fat
G E A
Sitting with his ear full of ’yap yap yap yap yap’
[Chorus]
D E
(Yap, yap, yap) On the doorstep

(Yap, yap, yap) Under the washing line

(Yap, yap, yap) Every evening
D E A
(Yap, yap, yap) She never keeps a closing time
[Verse 3]
A
Sings like a turkey up at the piano
D
The white cliffs fading away
A
The fox takes a trot into a tango
D
She always has a nice day
G E
She keeps her secrets right under her hat
E A
Until the wind blows it ’yap yap yap yap yap’
[Chorus]
D E
(Yap, yap, yap) On the doorstep
D E
(Yap, yap, yap) Under the washing line

(Yap, yap, yap) Every evening

(Yap, yap, yap) She never keeps a closing time
