    We always watch the Queen on Christmas Day
    A6 D D6/G
    Won't you stay?

    [Bridge]
    D Ab E/D Bb/Eb A D7sus/C

    [Verse 2]
    G/E Em9 Bm Dsus4/A D7sus4 Gmaj7
    Though your eyes see shipwrecked sailors you're still dry
    E B E6 Amaj7
    The outlook's fine though Wales might have some rain
    A6 D D/G
    Saved a-gain

    [Bridge]
    Amaj7 Am7 Esus2 Eadd9 Emaj7
    Amaj7 Am7 Cmaj7(b5)/E

    [Chorus 1]
    Em D6 Aadd2 Gmaj9
    Let's skip the news boy (I'll go and make some tea)
    Em D6 Aadd2 Gmaj9
    The arabs and the jews boy (too much for me)
    Em D6 Aadd2 Gmaj9
    They get me confused boy (puts me off to sleep)
    F#m7 Gmaj9 F#m7
    And the thing I hate--Oh Lord!
    G#m7 C#m7 E Em7
    Is staying up late, to watch some debate, on some nation's fate

    [Bridge]
    Em6 Em7 Em6 Em9
    [Verse 3]
    G/E Em9 Bm Dsus4/A D7sus4 Gmaj7
    Hypnotised by Batman, Tarzan, still surprised!
    E B E6 Amaj7
    You've won the West in time to be our guest

    Name your prize!

    D Ab E/D Bb/Eb A D7sus4/C

    G/E Em9 Bm Dsus4/A D7sus4 Gmaj7


    Drop of wine, a glass of beer dear what's the time?
    E B E6 Amaj7
    The grime on the Tyne is mine all mine all mine
    A6 D D/G
    Five past nine

    [Bridge]
    Amaj7 Am7 Cmaj7(b5)/E

    [Chorus 2]
    Em D6 Aadd2 Gmaj9
    Blood on the rooftops--Venice in the Spring
    Em D6 Aadd2 Gmaj9
    The Streets of San Francisco--a word from Peking
    Em D6 Aadd2 Gmaj9
    The trouble was started--by a young Errol Flynn
    F#m7 Gmaj9 F#m7
    Better in my day--Oh Lord!
    G#m7 C#m7 E Em
    For when we got bored, we'd have a world war, happy but poor
    D6 Aadd2 Gmaj9
    So let's skip the news boy (I'll go and make that tea)
    Em D6 Aadd2 Gmaj9
    Blood on the rooftops (too much for me)
    Em D6 Aadd2 Gmaj9
    When old Mother Goose stops--and they're out for 23
    F#m7 Gmaj9 F#m7
    Then the rain at Lords stopped play
    G#m7 C#m7 E Em7
    Seems Helen of Troy has found a new face again

    Em6 Em7 Em6

    [Outro]
    Em9
