G           Bm            Em Em7 Em
I read the news today oh boy
C        Em            Am            C7M   C9add C7M
About a lucky man who made the grade
G               Bm              Em
And though the news was rather sad
C       F                Em      C         F         Em C7M
Well I just had to laugh, I saw the photograph
G
He blew his mind out in a car
C             G4/B                 Am9
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
G                 Bm/F#                  Em   Em/D
A crowd of people stood and stared
C                      F
They'd seen his face before
Em                                                 C
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords
G          Bm/F#               Em Em/D
I saw a film      today oh boy
C                 G4/B               Am9
The English Army had just won the war
G          Bm/F#                   Em Em/D
A crowd of people turned away
C             G                Em                    C
But I just had to look having read the book
                  Em9 F9  F#9
I'd love to turn   you  on
 on E minor for a while then goes to E major
E                                                                                   D9
Woke up, fell out of  bed, dragged a comb across my head
                   E                               B7
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
              E                    B7
And looking up, I noticed I was late
                  E
Found my coat and grabbed my hat,
                                         D9
Made the bus in seconds flat
            E                               B7
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
               E                               B7
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream

C G D A E  C G D A E  D C D G C G D A E  C G D A E  D C D G E
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
G                Bm/F#             Em  Em/D
I heard the news today oh boy
C                     G4/B                       Am9
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
G                        Bm/F#
And though the holes    were rather small
C                    F
They had to count them all
Em                                                    Em/D                           C
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
                 Em9  F9    F#9
I'd love to turn   you  on
