C A7 You can read right through a book of matches
Dm7 G7 But that won’t make you smart
C C7 You can laugh in the face of watches
F Fm But time will only break your heart
F Fm Kings reign beneath umbrellas
C A7 Hide pennies down in cellars
Dm A7 And money pours down and yet
Dm7 G7 No everyone gets soaking wet
C F When bores and bullies conspire
E7 A7 To stamp out your spark
D7 Listen for…
G7 C A Voice In The Dark
C Am7 Dm7 Not a moment too soon as we blue
G7 the moon
C Am7 Dm7 G7 And a wolf begins to howl in tune

C Am7 Dm7 G7 I announced for all mankind a boon
C C7 Stand aside you big baboon
F Now I’m the a prize invention
Fm You’re the image of yourself
C Forget your cares
A7 And disapproving stares
D7 I’m not here to try to jump your borders
G7 Just ask your nieces and daughters
C Am7 Dm7 I’m flat as sole, I’m happy as a
G7 clam
C Am7 Dm7 But they don’t know the kind of
G7 [ C A/C# D7 G7 ] man I am (alt for this line only)
C Am7 Dm7 Little fish swimming in a jealous
G7 shoal
C C7 Now my net is overflowing
F And I suddenly seem to be all
Fm seeing and all knowing
C I’ve got something right there
A7 That you might want to hear
D7 But have no fear Lend a hand Lend an ear
G7 If your rent-money is in arrears
C We’ll be striking up a symphony
A7 bandstand
Dm7 G7 Long of hair and loose of tooth
C C7 There’ll be pirouettes and startling handstands
F And who but acrobats know how to
Fm tell the truth
F Fm When is said that then redundant
C A7 They gallivant in peg-leg pants
Dm7 I‘ll be your servant
A7 You’ll be my pal
Dm7 G7 I’ll be ever faithful you know I shall
C F There’s no fool like an old fool
E7 A7 Who blames it all upon his youth
Dm7 G7 When times are tough and you find you’re down
Em7 A7 Without a star to wish upon
D7 G7 C Just listen for a Voice In The Dark
C A7 I was striking through a box of matches
Dm7 G7 Hoping that one would spark
C C7 I heard somebody calling to me
F A voice in the dark
F Fm A sound both wild and gentle
Em7 A7 Daring and confidential
Dm7 A7 I thought there was music playing
Dm7 G7 But it was all and only talk
C F When liars and bullies conspire
E7 A7 to stamp out your spark
D7 G Fill up that empty space in your heart
Em7 A7 Listen up, when the herald says, “Hark”
D7 G7 C Believe in just a voice in the dark…
