A Day in the Life G Bm Em Em7 C G Bm Em I read the news today oh boy, C Em Am Cmaj7 about a lucky man who made the grade G Bm Em And though the news was rather sad, C Fmaj7 Em well, I just had to laugh; C Fmaj7 Em Cmaj7 I saw the photograph G Bm Em He blew his mind out in a car, C Em Am Cmaj7 he didn't notice that the lights had changed G Bm Em A crowd of people stood and stared, C F Em they'd seen his face before Em Em7 C Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords G Bm Em I saw a film today oh, boy; C Em Am Cmaj7 the English Army had just won the war G Bm Em A crowd of people turned away, C F but I just had to look; Em Em7 C having read the book....

The Ballad of John and Yoko

E Standing in the dock at Southampton Trying to get to Holland or France E7 The Man In the Mac said You gotta go back you know they didn’t even give us a chance Christ A you know it aint easy E you know how hard it can be B7 the way things are going ... E They’re gonna crucify me. Finally made the plane into Paris honeymooning down by the Seine Peter Brown called to say you can make it ok you can get married in Gibraltar near Spain .. Christ you know it ain’t easy you know how hard it can be the way things are going ... They’re gonna crucify me. Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton talking in our beds for a week the newspapers said Say what you doing in bed I said we're only trying to get us some peace ... Christ you know it ain’t easy you know how hard it can be the way things are going ... They’re gonna crucify me. A saving all your money for a rainy day giving all your clothes to charity B7 last night the wife said oh boy when you’re dead B You don’t take nothing with you but your soul E Think! Made a lightning trip to Vienna Eating chocolate cake in a bag The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head They look just like two gurus in drag" Christ

you know it ain’t easy you know how hard it can be the way things are going ... They’re gonna crucify me. Caught the early plane back to London Fifty acorns tied in a sack The men from the press say "We wish you success It's good to have the both of you back" Christ you know it ain’t easy you know how hard it can be the way things are going ... They’re gonna crucify me.

Working Class Hero Am G Am As soon as you're born they make you feel small G Am By giving you no time instead of it all G Am Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all Am (D) G Am A working class hero is something to be Am (D) G Am A working class hero is something to be They hurt you at home and they hit you at school They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules A working class hero is something to be A working class hero is something to be When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years Then they expect you to pick a career When you can't really function you're so full of fear A working class hero is something to be A working class hero is something to be Keep you doped with religion and sex and T.V. And you think you're so clever and classless and free But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see A working class hero is something to be A working class hero is something to be There's room at the top they are telling you still But first you must learn how to smile as you kill If you want to be like the folks on the hill A working class hero is something to be A working class hero is something to be If you want to be a hero well just follow me If you want to be a hero well just follow me
