This is all of the song up to the big ALL CHANGE!
Am6Walking across the sitting-room,
I E/Bturn the teleBvision off.
BmSitting beside you, I F#sus4look into your F#eyes.
Am6As the sound of motor cars
E/Bfades in the Bnight time,
I Ebm/Bbswear I saw your F/Aface changeF
it Bbdidn't seem quite right.
And it's Eb/Bbhello Bbbabe
with your F7/Aguardian eyes so Bbblue
EbHey my Bb/Fbaby
don't you F#dim7know our love is Gm7true.
Asus4 A Asus4 A
Am6Coming closer with our eyes,
a E/Bdistance falls aBround our bodies.
BmOut in the garden, the F#sus4moon seems very F#bright,
Am6Six saintly shrouded men
E/Bmove across the Blawn slowly.
The Ebm/Bbseventh walks in F/AfrontF
with a Bbcross held high in hand.
And it's Eb/Bbhey Bbbabe
your F7/Asupper's waiting for Bbyou.
EbHey my Bb/Fbaby, don't you F#dim7know our love is Gm7true.
GmI've been so F/Gfar from here,
Far from your Gm6warm arms.
G/BIt's good to D/Afeel you againG/B D/A
It's been a Amlong long time.

(A) (G)
You, can't you see he's fooled you all.
(A) (G)
Yes, he's here again, can't you see he's fooled you all
Share his peace,
(C)
Sign the lease.
(D)
He's a supersonic scientist,
(C) (G) (D)
He's the guaranteed eternal sanctuary man.
Look, look into my mouth he cries
(A)
And all the children lost down many paths,
(G)
I bet my life you'll walk inside
Hand in hand,
gland in gland
(C) (D)
With a spoonful of miracle,
(C) (G) (D)
He's the guaranteed eternal sanctuary
We will rock you, rock you little snake,
We will keep you snug and warm.
(F) (D)
Wearing feelings on our faces while our faces
took a rest,
(F) (D)
We walked across the fields to see the children
of the West,
(F)
But we saw a host of dark skinned warriors
(D)
standing still below the ground,
The fight's begun, they've been released.
Killing foe for peace...bang, bang, bang. Bang, bang,
bang...
And they're giving me a wonderful potion,
'Cos I cannot contain my emotion.
Wandering through the chaos the battle has left,
We climb up a mountain of human flesh,
To a plateau of green grass, and green trees
full of life.
A young figure sits still by a pool,
He's been stamped "Human Bacon" by some
butchery tool.
He is you
Social Security took care of this lad
We watch in reverence, as Narcissus is turned
to a flower.
A flower?
[D) C[B7 A
(G)
If you go down to Willow Farm,
(D)
to look for butterflies
flutterbyes, gutterflies
(G)
Open your eyes
it's full of surprise,
everyone lies,
(E)
like the focks on the rocks
(D)
and the musical box.
(D)
Oh, there's Mum & Dad, and good and bad,
(E) (D)
and everyone's happy to be here.
(G)
There's Winston Churchill dressed in drag,
(G) (F)
he used to be a British flag,
plastic bag, what a drag.
(D) (G)
The frog was a prince,
the prince was a brick,
the brick was an egg,
(E)
the egg was a bird.
(D)
Hadn't you heard?
Yes, we're happy as fish and gorgeous as geese,
(E) (D)
and wonderfully clean in the morning.
We've got everything,
we're growing everything,
We've got some in
We've got some out
We've got some wild things floating about
Everyone,
we're changing everyone,
you name them all,
We've had them here,
(C) (G)
And the real stars are still to appear.
ALL CHANGE!
