[Verse 1]

G Bm Em Em7

I read the news today oh boy

C C/B Asus2

About a lucky man who made the grade

G Bm Em Em7

And though the news was rather sad

C F Em Em7

Well I just had to laugh

C F Em C

I saw the photograph

[Verse 2]

G Bm Em Em7

He blew his mind out in a car

C C/B Asus2

He didn't notice that the lights had changed

G Bm Em Em7

A crowd of people stood and stared

C F

They'd seen his face before

Em

Nobody was really sure

Em7 C

If he was from the House of Lords

[Verse 3]

G Bm Em Em7

I saw a film today oh boy

C C/B Asus2

The English Army had just won the war

G Bm Em Em7

A crowd of people turned away

C F Em

But I just had to look

Em7 C

Having read the book

N.C(B5)(Build to Middle)

I'd love to turn you on

[Middle]

E

Woke up, fell out of bed

Dsus2

Dragged a comb across my head

E B7sus4

Found my way downstairs and drank a cup

E B7sus4 (B7)

And looking up I noticed I was late (ha ha ha.)

E

Found my coat and grabbed my hat

Dsus2

Made the bus in seconds flat

E B7sus4

Found my way upstairs and had a smoke

E B7sus4

And somebody spoke and I went into a dream.

[Verse 4]

G Bm Em Em7

I read the news today oh boy

C C/B Asus2

Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire

G Bm Em Em7

And though the holes were rather small

C F

They had to count them all

Em Em7 C

Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall

N.C(B5)(Build to end on E)

I'd love to turn you on.
