I read the news today oh boy,
C Em Am Cmaj7
about a lucky man who made the grade
G Bm Em
And though the news was rather sad,
C F Em
well, I just had to laugh;
C F Em Cmaj7
I saw the photograph
G Bm Em C Em Am Cmaj7
He blew his mind out in a car, he didn't notice that the lights had changed
G Bm Em C F
A crowd of people stood and stared, they'd seen his face before
Em E7 C
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords
G Bm Em C Em Am Cmaj7
I saw a film today oh, boy; the English Army had just won the war
G Bm Em C F
A crowd of people turned away, but I just had to look;
Em E7 C
having read the book....
C Bm G Em E
I'd love to turn.... you.... on....
E D
Woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my head
E F#m7
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
E F#m7
and looking up, I noticed I was late
E D
Found my coat and grabbed my hat, made the bus in seconds flat
E F#m7
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
E F#m7
and somebody spoke and I went into a dream
C G D A C G D A ahhh....
E D/C D A
G Bm Em C Em Am Cmaj7
I heard the news today oh, boy; four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
G Bm Em C F
And though the holes were rather small, they had to count them all
Em E7 C
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
Bm G Em E
I'd love to turn... you... on...
