intro:G  Bm  Em  Em7  C  C
G          Bm              Em       C
I read the news today, oh boy, about 
   Em            Am            Cmaj7        
a lucky man who made the grade 
G                Bm                  Em
And thought the news were rather sad, 
C            F            Em      E
well I just had to laugh
C          F         Em     Cmaj7   
I saw the photograph

 G          Bm                Em        C
He blew his mind out in a car, he 
      Em              Am             Cmaj7
didn't notice that the lights had changed
G         Bm                   Em
A crowd of people stood and stared, 
C                 F
they'd seen his face before
Em                         E
Nobody was really sure if he was from 
             C
the House of Lords

G        Bm        Em       C
I saw a film today, oh boy, the 
         Em          Am         Cmaj7
england army had just won the war
G          Bm            Em    C
A crowd of people turned away, but 
I just [F]had to look
[Em]Having [E?]read the [C]book
I'd love to [Bm]turn .... [G]you .... [G?]on .... [E]

E           
Woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a combed 
          D
across my head
          E                F#maj7
Found my way downstairs and dranked a 
         E            F#maj7
cup, and looking up I noticed I was late
E
Grabbed my coat, and grabbed my hat, made the 
                D
bus in seconds flat
      E                 F#maj7
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke, 
      E                 F#maj7
and somebody spoke and I went into a dream
C       G D A C      G D A
Ahhhhh... Ahhhhh... 

G          Bm            Em    C
I read the news today, oh boy, four
         Em                 Am           Cmaj7 
thousand holes in Blackburn Lacanshire 
G             Bm                 Em
And though the holes were rather small, 
C           F
they had to count them all
Em                              E
Now they know how many holes it takes
                   C 
to fill the Albert Hall

            Bm        G        G
I'd love to turn .... you .... on .... 
E
