E    G#m  A  B      E    G#m  A  B


   [Verse 1]
D                      A
the high street shops are boarded up
        Bm            A      G  G6 G
an' the terrace it is fenced in
D                   A
see-through shields are walled across
    Bm           A    G  G6 G
the way that you came in
            D              A
but there's no need to get excited
       Bm                  A   G  G6 G
as the lorries bring the bacon in
         D                  A
'cos the housewives are all singing
       Bm        G    A E
groovy times are here again


   [Verse 2]
     D                    A
they discovered one black saturday
     Bm               A    G  G6 G
that mobs don't march they run
D                        A
so you can excuse the nervous triggerman
          Bm               A   G  G6 G
just this once for jumping the gun
        D                A
as they were picking up the dead
    Bm        A   G    G6 G
out of the broken glass
         D               A        
yes it's number one, the radio said
       Bm         G    A  E
groovy times have come to pass!


   [Chorus]
E  G#m A  B      E G#m  A   B       E G#m A    B

D                A
the intake is on the uptake
    Bm             A      G   G6 G
the acceleration's pretty grim
D                  A
i can remember his first appearance
    Bm                   A  G  G6 G
now look what's happened to him
        D            A
so they put him in a dog suit
     Bm                  G   G6 G
like from nineteen sixty four
    D             A
the king of early evening tv
       Bm    G  A    E
groovy times forever more
