G        Bm        Em  Em7  Em
I read the news today oh boy
C     Em        Am       C7M    Cadd9 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
"Stays 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
