Lyrics
I read the (Bm7)news to day, oh (Em)boy,
a bout a luck y man who (Am)made the grade.
And though the news was rath er (Em)sad,
well, I just had to laugh.
I saw the pho to graph.
He blew his (Bm7)mind out in a (Em)car;
he did n’t no tice that the (Am)lights had changed.
A crowd of peo ple stood and (Em)stared.
They’d seen his face be fore; (Em)no bod y was real ly sure if (Em)he was from the House of (C)Lords.
I saw a (Bm7)film to day, oh (Em)boy;
the En glish ar my just had (Am)won the war.
A crowd of peo ple turned a (Em)way,
but I just had to look, (Em)no bod y was real ly sure if (Em)he was from the House of (C)Lords.
hav ing (Em)read the (C)book.
I’d (Bm)love to turn
(G)you
(Em)on.
Woke up, fell out of bed,
dragged a comb a cross my (D5)head.
Found my (E)way down stairs and (B7)drank a cup, and (E)look ing up, I (B7)no ticed I was late.
Found my (E)coat and grabbed my hat
made the bus in sec onds (D5)flat.
Found my (E)way up stairs and (B7)had a smoke.
And (E)some bod y spoke and I (B7)went in to a dream.
(C)Ah.
(C)Ah.
(Em)now they know how man y holes it (Em)takes to fill the Al bert Hall.
I’d love to (Bm)turn
(G)you
(Em)on.
