Penny Lane
The Beatles.
[Verse 1]
A A/G# A/F# A/E Bm7 Bm E7sus4 E7
In Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs
A A/G# A/F# A/E Am7
Of every head he's had the pleasure to know
Am/F# Fmaj7/F Esus4 E(x2)
And all the people that come and go, stop and say hello.
A A/G# A/F# A/E Bm7 Bm E7sus4 E7
On the corner is a banker with a motorcar,
A A/G# A/F# A/E Am7
The little children laugh at him behind his back.
Am/F# Fmaj7/F Esus4 E D
And the banker never wears a mack in the pouring rain,
D D
very strange.
[Chorus]
G G/B C (Trompet rif.1)
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
G G/B C/G (A - B - C note on 5th)
There beneath the blue suburban skies I sit, and
E E/G# E
meanwhile back
[Verse 2]
A A/G# A/F# A/E Bm7 Bm E7sus4 E7
In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass
A A/G# A/F# A/E Am7
And in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen
Am/F# Fmaj7/F Esus4 E (x2)
He likes to keep his fire engine clean, It's a clean machine.
[Trompet solo]
A A/G# A/F# A/E Bm7 Bm Esus4 E
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
A A/G# A/F# A/E Am7
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Am/F# Fmaj7/F Esus4 E D D D
Aaah ah ah aaah ah ah aaah
[Chorus]
G G/B C (Trompet rif.1)
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes.
G G/B C/G (A - B - C note on 5th)
A four of fish and finger pie in- su-mmer,
E E/G# E
meanwhile back
[Verse 3]
A A/G# A/F# A/E Bm7 Bm E7sus4 E7
Behind the shelter in the middle of the roundabout
A A/G# A/F# A/E Am7
The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray
Am/F# Fmaj7/F Esus4 E (x2)
And tho' she feels as if she's in a play, she is anyway.
A A/G# A/F# A/E Bm7 Bm E7sus4 E7
In Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer
A A/G# A/F# A/E Am7
We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim.
Am/F# Fmaj7/F Esus4 E
And then the fireman rushes from in the pouring rain,
D D D
very strange.
[Chorus]
G G/B C (Trompet rif.2)
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
G G/B C/G (A - B - C note on 5th)
There beneath the blue suburban skies I sit, and
E E/G# E
mean while back
A A/C# D (Trompet rif. 3)
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
A A/C# D (Trompet rif. 4)
There beneath the blue suburban skies
A
