A Day In The Life

(Lennon/McCartney) The Beatles

G Bm Em Em7 C

G Bm Em Em7
I read the news today oh boy,
C Em Asus2
About a lucky man who made the grade.
G Bm Em Em7
And though the news was rather sad,
C F Em Em7
Well I just had to laugh,
C F Em C
I saw the photograph.

G Bm Em Em7
He blew his mind out in a car,
C Em Asus2
He didn't notice that the lights had changed,
G Bm Em Em7
A crowd of people stood and stared,
C F
They'd seen his face before,
Em Em7 C
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords.

G Bm Em Em7
I saw a film today oh boy
C Em Asus2
The English army had just won the war
G Bm Em Em7
A crowd of people turned away
C F
But I just had to look
Em Em7 C
Having read the book

Bm Em Asus2 Bm
I'd love to turn you on....

(Orchestral climax leading to an E chord)

 E D
Woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my head
E B
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
E B
And looking up, I noticed I was late
E D
Found my coat and grabbed my hat, made the bus in seconds flat
E B
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
E B
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream

C G D A E
Aah ah ah ah Aah ah ah Ah ah
C G D A E D C D
G
Aah ah ah ah Aah ah ah Ah ah

G Bm Em Em7
I read the news today oh boy,
C Em Asus2
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire.
G Bm Em Em7
And though the holes were rather small,
C F
They had to count them all,
Em Em7 C
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert
Hall.

Bm Em Asus2 Bm
I'd love to turn you on
