Capo 1
 Am                             
Harry was a bus driver, he was a 
 F    G          Am
very forthright man
Am                                
He'd run down the road right over 
        F         G          Am
a dog before he'd change his path
    F       G    C        Am    
And then he met lovely Loraine 
          F         G      Am
they had a rough and tumble lad

Refrão -------------
F    G         C        Am
Everybody sing loud and shout
F       G          Am
Dreamin he?s a pop star
    F          G         C       
The boys came about that mersey 
    Am
beat sound
     F                       
With crude little sketches of 
    E
guitars
-------------------- 



Well they heard of a sound from a 
faraway land that was ruled by a 
cricket and a king
But a pauper's son would one day 
come from twenty-five Upton Green
And there everyday was a place to 
play when the final bell had rung
And when the big day come he was 
just too young and they sent em' all
 back home

Chorus

Solo


Well the wild ones don't think much 
of Johnny, yeah a critic's got it 
rough
But you're a real king mixer and 
it's my train mister if you think 
that's all I've got
You'll be beaten on down By mersey 
sound and then you'll have to choose
Between standing on your own or 
singing right along with the ones no
 better than you

Chorus
