I read the news today oh boy

About a lucky man who made the grade

And though the news was rather sad

F A# Am Am7

Well I just had to laugh

F A# Am F

I saw the photograph

C Em Am Am7

He blew his mind out in a car

F FE Dsus2

He didn't notice that the lights had changed

A crowd of people stood and stared

They'd seen his face before

Nobody was really sure

Am7 F

If he was from the House of Lords

C Em Am Am7

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

A Gsus2

Woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my head

A E7sus

Found my way downstairs and drank a cup

A E7sus E7

And looking up, I noticed I was late. Ha, ha, ha.

A

Found my coat and grabbed my hat

Gsus2

Made the bus in seconds flat

A E7sus

Found my way upstairs and had a smoke

A E7sus

And somebody spoke and I went into a dream

F C G D A F C G D A G F G

Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah...

C Em Am Am7

I read 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 turnn you on.
