VERSE 1::
  G+G       FF        C majorC
The stage director stood up and he called the actors down
  G+G         FF                  C majorC
He asked them all to say three words, 'Up', 'Down' and 'Around'
   G+G         FF           C majorC
So, 'Up', 'Down' and 'Around' they cried with one according voice
  G+G       FF                   C majorC
And up, down and around they went, for it was their only choice

CHORUS::
      DmDm     G+G   C majorC
I can only turn again, to the front again
    DmDm     G+G   C majorC
Only to turn again, to the rear
      DmDm     G+G      C majorC
Turn again, turn again, turn, turn, turn, again
   FF      G+G    C majorC
I can listen, but I can't hear


VERSE 2::
  G+G            FF        C majorC
My friend's girl, she has a wireless aerial sticking out of her head
   G+G       FF              C majorC
And a pile of true romances lying underneath the bed
   G+G        FF      C majorC
And a giant poster of Rabby Noakes just beside the door
   G+G           FF                     C majorC
But I know she'll get along fine without him if it doesn't see her anymore


CHORUS::
      DmDm     G+G   C majorC
I can only turn again, to the front again
    DmDm     G+G   C majorC
Only to turn again, to the rear
      DmDm     G+G      C majorC
Turn again, turn again, turn, turn, turn, again
   FF      G+G    C majorC
I can listen, but I can't hear

VERSE 3::
  G+G             FF       C majorC
The strings were cut from the guitar puppet singer on the stage
    G+G      FF                 C majorC
And his music became furious and he stamped his foot in rage
  G+G           FF     C majorC
The girls all screamed in agony, the boys they gaped in fear
    G+G           FF        C majorC
And the song was called 'Have Mercy Baby, Have Mercy On My Ear'


CHORUS::
      DmDm     G+G   C majorC
I can only turn again, to the front again
    DmDm     G+G   C majorC
Only to turn again, to the rear
      DmDm     G+G      C majorC
Turn again, turn again, turn, turn, turn, again
   FF      G+G    C majorC
I can listen, but I can't hear


VERSE 4::
  G+G        FF          C majorC
I remember what the old man said on his little wooden stand
   G+G     FF              C majorC
As he spoke very quietly with a waving of his hand
 G+G        FF         C majorC
"Every pigeon to its own hole", but what he seemed to say
 G+G        FF               C majorC
I know I should go looking for, a better place to stay


CHORUS::
      DmDm     G+G   C majorC
I can only turn again, to the front again
    DmDm     G+G   C majorC
Only to turn again, to the rear
      DmDm     G+G      C majorC
Turn again, turn again, turn, turn, turn, again
   FF      G+G    C majorC
I can listen, but I can't hear
      DmDm     G+G      C majorC
Turn again, turn again, turn, turn, turn, again
