About a lucky man who made the grade
[G(III)]
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph.

He blew his mind out in a car

He didn´t notice that the lights had changed
[G(III)]
crowd of people stood and stared
They´d seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
[C(III)]
If he was from the House of Lords.
[G(III)]
I saw a film today oh boy

The English Army had just won the war
[G(III)]
crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look

Having read the book.
[C(III)]
I´d love to turn you on.
Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
And looking up I noticed I was late.
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream.
[G(III)]
I read the news today oh boy

Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
[G(III)]
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
[C(III)]
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.
[C(III)]
I´d love to turn you on...
