[Chorus]
G                                F                                       Em     E D
You’re looking and listening and hoping that things are changing for the better
G                 F                                 Em        E D
You’re trying to see if what you’re teaching is the truth sir
G                                F                                       Em     E D
You’re looking and listening and hoping that things will change for better
G             F                                    Em      E D
Don’t want to preach or teach the blues to you now brother

[Verse 1]
G F         Em             E D
I just left Victoria Gardens
G   F              Em                E D
And walked through cardboard city land
G F        Em             E D
A burnt out star was asking
G   F               Em            E D
How would I like to shake his hand
C E                Am   G
I walked on in no hurry
D
And wondered where did we go wrong?

G                     F                                       Em     E D
Looking listening and hoping that things are changing for the better
G             F                                    Em     E D
Don’t want to preach or teach the blues to you now brother

[Bridge]
C Em              Am    G
I walked on in no hurry
D
And wondered where did we go wrong?

[Chorus]
A                 E                                           D E
Looking listening hoping that things are changing for the better
A             E                                  D         E
And trying to see if what you’re teaching is the truth sir

[Verse 2]
G      F           Em        E D
It’s a bloody fine situation
G       F              Em  E D
That we find ourselves in
G       F         Em               E D
He said something I couldn’t mention here
G      F                  Em  E D
And we laughed with him again

[Bridge]
C Em              Am    G
I walked on in no hurry
D
And wondered where did we go wrong?

[Chorus]
A                 E                                           D E
Looking listening hoping that things are changing for the better
A             E                                  D         E
And trying to see if what you’re teaching is the truth sir

B
B   A                            G#  A#
She said it’s for the good of us all

[Chorus]
A                 E                                           D E
Looking listening hoping that things are changing for the better
A                    E                                  D  E
And trying to see if what you’re teaching is the truth sir

B   A       G#7 G# A#
I’m not so sure

[Verse]
G   F         Em           E D
And now it is early evening
G F           Em                   E D
I look across grey Leicester Square
G F         Em                       E D
A large and silent crowd were walking
G    F              Em               E D
Said they had every right to be there

G    F              Em               E D
Said they had every right to be there x 5 to fade
