Venus In Flares

  C
A million housewives every day
G                C
Pick up a can of beans and say
                            G        C       C G C   C C G C
“What an amazing example of synchronisation”.

He looked out of the aeroplane
       G                G
And he saw the Alps way down below

He fixed his gaze on the white terrain
              G              C
 And he could see a portrait in the snow.
                                        G                C
And he shouted: “Hey - look down there, I can see Robert Powell”.
                                 G         C
That’s an ominous example of the power of TV.


[Chorus]

           D7                 G
And I went la la la, la la la laaa
Continúa después del anuncio
D7                 G
La la la, la la la laaaa
 D7                   G
Oh la la la, la la la laaa
D7                                     G                             C C G C  (x4)
Just like everyone else does when they can’t think of any more words.


[Verse 2]

Yeah, OK I had a Kojak mac
   G                              C
By Christ they were trendy at the time.
                             G                C
I got it into my head that I had to stamp out crime
                             G               C
The man behind the mask at C&A’s was quite polite
                                  G                C
He said that when I wore my mac I wouldn’t have to fight.


[Chorus]

           D7                             G
And I went yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeahhhh

D7                             G
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeahhhh
D7                             G        F C  F C
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah oh God.


[Verse 3]

       F
Oh the Grand Old Duke Of York
                         G
Well he had ten thousand men
       F
And he marched them all to the top of the hill
                     G       C C G C  (x4)
And he had them all again.
