Well, as G you can see we’ve got a Eb7 new re-D7 cruit

G Hands behind backs and Eb7 legs apart D7
and tell us G all of your un-Eb7 fortunate D7 story

Who G me sir? Eb7 D7
Yes, G you ssssir! Eb7 D7
I was an G innocent man ‘til someone Eb7 grassed me of a D7 plan
Of G earning some big a Eb7 money D7
If I hadn’t G mouthed it about, I am Eb7 sure without D7 doubt
I’d ’ave G missed this land of hope and Eb7 glory D7

Well, you G poor poor sod, here you’re up Eb7 sharp at six D7 thirty
Cold G shower down to breakfast, can’t Eb7 have you looking D7 dirty

As the C evening drags on, you can watch a little telly

C Don’t com-D plain Em learn the F game and G I’ll get through
a-G no-F ther D day

I watch the G second hand on the clock at long last Eb7 is nine D7 thirty
Off to G bed straight to sleep as I leave this Eb7 land of hope and D7 glory
But G only for a few seconds I’m in Eb7 ecsta-D7 sy
Before the G bell rings to let me know, Eb7 sharp at six D7 thirty
