Gmaj7           Bm7
People say they want to be free
Fmaj7                     Cmaj7
They look at him and they look at me
Am7                              Gm7
But it's only themselves they're wanting to see
Fmaj7                Cmaj7
And everybody knows about it

Gmaj7                        Bm7
We talked all night and were all turned on
Fmaj7                   Cmaj7
We believe we heard him singing his song
Am7                      Gm7
Telling us all there was work to be done
Fmaj7               Cmaj7
And everyone sung a chorus of I am the walrus

Gmaj7              Bm7
Yes Disneyland has come to town
Fmaj7                  Cmaj7
Everyone's dressed and standing around
Am7                  Gm7
Alice is wearing her sexiest gown
Fmaj7                       Cmaj7
But she doesn't want you to look at her

Gmaj7                Bm7
Beautiful people are queuing to drown
Fmaj7                          Cmaj7
They wait for the lifeguard to put on his crown
Am7                Gm7
But he's up at the other end of town
Fmaj7                 Cmaj7
Trying to talk to the mirror

Gmaj7                      Bm7
The scientist talks and he knows what he means
Fmaj7                        Cmaj7
He sits on the floor and has beautiful dreams
Am7                           Gm7
But he gets brought down by a woman who screams
Fmaj7                    Cmaj7
But he knows it's only a record - oh yes it is

Gmaj7                    Bm7
His brave new girl stops feeding the ants
Fmaj7                     Cmaj7
And looks at him with her septic pants
Am7                    Gm7
She still knows how to make him dance
Fmaj7                  Cmaj7
And forget about emancipation - it's all imagination

Gmaj7            Bm7
And you and I we sit and hum
Fmaj7               Cmaj7
We know something's got to come
Am7               Gm7
To get us off our endless bum
Fmaj7                       Cmaj7
There's probably one in the bathroom or in the hall
