I Got This Email

[Verse 1]
        C
I spent 6 hours watching TV
F
Antiques and Jeremy
     C                 G
Till 4 in the afternoon
        C
When my mother came in
           F
Said "it's wearing pretty thin,
        C            G           C
Son you better get a fucking job soon"
        C
And I went on to the internet
   F
To see what jobs I could get
C                             G
Just to keep my mother satisfied
         C
But with my degree in aviation
    F
For every single occupation
C               G         C
I felt somewhat over qualified
C
Then I saw in the corner of the screen
F
Someone had sent a message to me
C                              G
They put certain characters in bold
C
I cried tears as I read
         F
Every single word they said
C         G             C
All of my problems were solved

[Chorus]
       F
I said "don't worry mother
    C
Cos I got this email
          G                      Am
From that prince of some country somewhere
            F
He said his plan could never fail
     C
I'll give him all my bank details
          G              C
And he'll make me a millionaire"

[Verse 2]
     C
Next morning I was so excited
  F
I pissed myself didn't try to hide it
      C                          G
I had pound signs gleaming in my eyes
     C
But I went on down to Savile Row
   F
To buy myself a suit of gold
Continúa después del anuncio
         C        G            C
But they only had silver in my size

           C
I thought what should I do with all this money
F
   Oh lord wouldn't it be funny
     C                          G
If I bought myself a brand new limousine
   C
So I went down to the limousine shop
F
Asked the salesman "what you got?"
        C           G               C
He just stood there staring back at me

         C
He said "I'm sorry sir we're closing down
F
No one can afford limousines in this town
    C                                       G
I'm broke I'm bankrupt I'll have to sell my kids"
        C
I said "don't sell your children
  F
I think I can save them
C        G              C
Come and take a look at this"

[Chorus]
              F
I said "don't worry Mr salesman
    C
Cos I got this email
           G                         Am
From that prince of some country somewhere
            F
He said his plan could never fail
     C
I'll give him all my bank details
          G                     C
And he'll make us both millionaires"

[Bridge]
C
Well me and the limousine salesman were whistling Dixie at this point
                                      C
Talking about our suits of solid gold

[Verse 3]
    C
And suddenly out of the blue
   F
We saw ourselves a hippie or two
    C                              G
And they were protesting about the war
    C
We followed them down to Number 10
    F
Trafalgar Square then back again
    C                G             C
And then we started banging at the door

        C
We said "come on David speak to us
      F
We're tired and we're pissed off
  C                      G
Some of us are moving to France
    C
And finally he showed his face
    F
And after him in second place
     C                 G        C
Came Nick Clegg on his Game-boy Advance

[Bridge]
        C
I said "how you doing Nick? What level you on?"
              C
He said "level 5"
                                C
I said "what game you playing Nick?
             C
He said "Tetris"
N.C.
I said "level 5s pretty easy to get to on Tetris Nick"

[Verse 4]
    C
And then from the crowd
F
There came a shout
    C                   G
And everybody turned to look
           C
And in the middle of the humdrum
    F
Was David Cameron's mum
C              G          C
Standing there shaking her hook

[Bridge]
         G
She said "David what you doing?
     G
The country's in meltdown
    G                           G
I'm buying all my knickers from Primark
    Am
The people are rioting
    Em
The high streets are empty
    F                   G
The country is going to shit"

[Chorus]
               F
And David said "don't worry mother
    C
Cos I got this email
          G                          Am
From that prince of some country somewhere
            F
He said his plan could never fail
     C
I'll give him all our bank details
          G                  C
And he'll make us all millionaires"
