A day in the life (midi)

G - Bm - Em - C ~

G Bm Em - G

1. I read the news today, oh boy,

C Em Am

about a lucky man who made the grade,

G Bm Em - G

and though the news was rather sad,

C F - Em C F - Em - C

well, I just had to la…ugh, I saw the photogr…aph.

G Bm Em - G

2. He blew his mind out in a car,

C Em Am

he didn't notice that the lights had changed.

G Bm Em - G

A crowd of people stood and stared,

C F

they'd seen his face before,

Em G C

nobody was really sure, if he was from the House of Lords.

G Bm Em - G

3. I saw a film today, oh boy,

C Em Am

the English Army had just won the war.

G Bm Em - G

A crowd of people turned away,

C F

but I just had to look,

Em C Bm G Am - Em - E ~ ~

having read the book, I'd love to turn - - you - - on.

E A

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 A

Found my coat and grabbed my hat, 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

Ah, ahaha, ahaha, ahaha.

C G D A - E - DC - DG

Ah, ahaha, ahaha, ahaha.

Bm Em - G

4. I heard the news today, oh boy,

C Em Am

four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire.

G Bm Em - G

And though the holes were rather small,

C F

they had to count them all,

Em G C

now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.

Bm G Am - Em - E

I'd love to turn - - you - - on.
