Intro: D MajorD
(D MajorD)
Who knows what the
(F#F#)
wind's gonna bring when the
(D MajorD)
invalids sing "La-la's"
(B minorBm)
With a powerful sting sting that'll stop
(A augmentedA)
any opera or any Bing
(A augmentedA)
Sing, spread the news across the land
(G+G)
All winners will be also-rans
(B minorBm)
Achoo! One size fits ev'ryone
(B minorBm)
Achoo! One breath, the deed's been done
(idem)
Grey hair, and a
dash and a flair give your
Doctor an air - I'm hurt
But the choice that you made is an
obvious one for a girl who needs care
I do hope that he makes you well
Say, is there any cure for hell?
Chorus (repeat)
(A augmentedA)
Sing, Ile de France and ev'rywhere
(G+G)
You can't ignore that sort of air
Chorus (repeat)
G+G (4 bars)
So...
[change from 4/4 to 5/4 beat]
(D MajorD)
open wide, open wide and say,
[back to 4/4]
(B minorBm)
open wide and say goodbye, you'll be Okay
(A///)
(B minorBm)
Achoo! He's gonna whisk you away
(B minorBm)
Achoo! He's gonna make you OK
Achoo (repeat till fade)
