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) Hm Em
I read the news today oh boy
C C+ G+
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
G (III) Hm Em
And though the holes were rather small
C Em
They had to count them all
Em C (III)
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.
C (III)
I?d love to turn you on…
