D A E7 A
[Verse 1]
D A
Norman and Norma got married in Cromer
E7 A
April 1983
D A
It could have been warmer but Norman and Norma
E7 A
Were happy as they'd ever been
F C
They flew to Majorca and swam in the water
G7 E7
It felt just like having a bath
Am Dm
The piña coladas hit Norma hard
G
And she fell into bed with a laugh
And she said:
[Chorus]
F G Em Am
Oh, Norman, it's never ever felt like this before
F G Em Am
And oh, Norman, I've never really known your kiss before
F E7 Dm7
Oh no, Norman, Norman
Gsus4 G
Nor---man
[Verse 2]
D A
Norman and Norma had three lovely daughters
E7 A
Nadia, Nora and Neve
D A
The firm Norma worked at wouldn't take her back
E7 A
After maternity leave
F C
They dreamt of Majorca but couldn't afford to
G E7
go on Normanâ's salary
Am Dm
So they went to Cromer, got double pneumonia
G
And Norma remembered when she used to say:
[Chorus]
F G Em Am
Oh, Norman, it's never ever felt like this before
F G Em Am
And oh, Norman, I've never really known your kiss before
F G
Oh no, Norman
[Solo]
Em Am F E7 Dm7
Gsus4 G
Nor---man
[Verse 3]
D A
Twenty years on and the children have gone
E7 A
And they're both at a bit of a loss
D A
They've tried salsa classes and growing tomatoes
E7 A
But nothing is getting them off
F C
Then one day in Clacton there's a re-enactment
G E
Of Normans and Saxons, and this
Am Dm
Gets their juices flowing, before long they're going
G
And fighting like it's 1066!
F#
And she says:
[Chorus]
F G Em Am
Oh, Norman, it's never ever felt like this before
F G Em Am
And oh, Norman, I've never really known such bliss before
F G Em Am
Oh no, Norman
[Outro]
F G Em Am
Oh no Norman, yeah oh no no
F G
no no no no Norman
Em Am
It's never ever felt like this before
F E7 Dm7
and oh, Norman, Norman
Gsus4 G
Nor---man
