John Lennon & Paul McCartney
Song : B
Intro:
G Bm Em Em7 C
G Bm Em Em7
I read the news today, oh boy,
C Cmaj7 Am9
About a lucky man who made a grade,
G Bm Em Em7
And though the news was rather sad,
C F Em Em7
Well, I just had to laugh.
C F Em C
I saw the photograph.
G Bm Em Em7
He blew his mind out in a car,
C Cmaj7 Am9
He didn't notice that the lights have changed,
G Bm Em Em7
A crowd of people stood and stared,
C F
They've seen his face before,
Em Em7 C
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords.
G Bm Em Em7
I saw a film today, oh boy,
C Cmaj7 Am9
The English army had just won the war,
G Bm Em Em7
A crowd of people turned away,
C F Em
But I just had to look,
Em7 C
Having read the book, I'd love to turn you on...
E
E B9
Woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my head
E
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late
E B9
Found my coat and grabbed my hat, made the bus in seconds flat
E
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream
C G D C E C G D C
Ahhh....
E D C D G
I heard the news today oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
I'd love to turn... you... on...
