[Intro]
G A
[Verse 1]
Bm
I'd like to drop my trousers to the world
Em G F#m
I am a man of means (of slender means)
Bm
Each household appliance
Em G F#m
Is like a new science in my town
[Pre-chorus]
Bm
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
Em G
I'd get such a shock I'd probably jump
F#m
In the ocean
[Chorus]
A
And when a train goes by
Bm
It's such a sad sound
G
No ...
A Bm G
It's such a sad thing

[Verse 2]
Bm
I'd like to drop my trousers to the Queen
Em G F#m
Every sensible child will know what this means
Bm
The poor and the needy
Em G F#m
Are selfish and greedy on her terms
[Pre-chorus]
Bm
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
Em G
I'd get such a shock I'd probably jump
F#m
In the ocean
[Chorus]
A
And when a train goes by
Bm
It's such a sad sound
G
No ...

It's such a sad thing

[Verse 3]
Bm
And when I'm lying in my bed
Em
I think about life
G F#m
And I think about death
Bm Em G F#m
And neither one particularly appeals to me
[Outro]
Bm
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
Em G F#m
I'd get such a shock I'd probably lie
Em G F#m
In the middle of the street and die
Em G F#m Bm
I'd lie down and die ...
A G
Oh, oh

You can see he plays a F#m through the Bm's in the verses.
