(intro) [G] [Bm] [Em] [Em7] (add [D] on [B] string) [Em] [C] ..[C] [Cmaj7] [C] +9 [Cmaj7] (play with [B])
[G] [Bm] [Em] [Em7] [Em] (you can add these notes on B string-
I read the news today oh boy I'll omit them from now on)
[C] About a [Em]lucky man who [Am]made the grade[Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7]
[G] And though the [Bm]news was rather [Em]sad
[C] Well I [F]just had to laugh[Em]
[C] [F] [Em] [Cmaj7] ...
I saw the photograph

He blew his mind out in a car / He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared / They'd seen his face before
[Em] [C] ....
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords

I saw a film today oh boy / The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away / But I just had to look
Having read the book....

[C] I'd love to [Bm]turn.... [G]you.... [Am7]on.... [Em]

(stays on Em for awhile then goes to E-major)

[E] Woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my [A]head
[E] Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late
[E] Found my coat and grabbed my hat, made the bus in seconds [A]flat
[E] Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream

[C]Ahhh[G] ....[D] [C] [E] [C] [G] [D] [C]
[E] [D] [C] [D] [G]

I heard the news today oh boy / Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small / They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
I'd love to turn... you... on...
