Lyrics
I read the (Bm)news today, oh (Em)boy,
(C)about a (Em)lucky man who (Am)made the grade.
(G)And though the news was rather (Em)sad,
(C)well, I just (F)had to laugh,
(C)I saw the (F)photograph.
(G)He blew his (Bm)mind out in a (Em)car;
(C)he didn't (Em)notice that the (Am)lights had changed.
(G)A crowd of people stood and (Em)stared.
(C)They'd seen his (F)face before;
(Em)nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords.
(G)I saw a (Bm)film today, oh (Em)boy;
(C)the English (Em)army had just (Am)won the (G)war.
A crowd of people turned (Em)away,
(C)but I just (F)had to look,
(Em)nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords.
having read the (C)book.
I'd love to (Bm)turn
(G)you (Em)on.
(E)Woke up, fell out of bed,
dragged a comb across my head.
Found my way downstairs and (F#m)drank a cup,
and (E)looking up, I (F#m)noticed I was late.
Found my (E)coat and grabbed my hat,
made the bus in seconds (D5)flat.
Found my (E)way upstairs and (F#m)had a (B7)smoke.
And (E)somebody spoke and I (F#m)went into a dream.
(C)Ah
(G)I read the (Bm)news today, oh (Em)boy,
(C)four thousand (Em)holes in Blackburn, (Am)Lancashire.
(G)And though the holes were rather (Em)small,
(C)they had to (F)count them all;
(Em)now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert (C)Hall.
I'd love to (Bm)turn
(G)you on.
