Breakfast In Mayfair Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]"Th[Em]e wor[D]ld[Em] has surel[D]y lost it's head,[Em]
the [G]news is full [D]of crimes
There's robberies in The Tele[Em]graph
and there's [G]murders in The [Em]Times
And [G]always more obit[F#m]uaries
[Am]and even one o[G]f these
Con[D]cerns the brutal [Em]slaughter of one [G]old
Miss [D]Emma Keyes[Em][D][Em]
The po[D]lice have got [Em]their man, they're sure,
he [G]never left the [D]scene
Indeed, he raised [Em]a hue and cry,
a [G]most unusual [Em]thing
An [G]ar sonist, a mur[F#m]derer,
his [Am]soul will soon be fry[G]ing
He's [D]young but old enough [Em]to kill
and [G]not too young for dy[D]ing
[Em]Now [D]it s[Em]eems the[D] populace[Em]
will queue to [G]see him stand [D]in court
To hear him speak his wicked [Em]lies
while [G]smiling at his [Em]thoughts
This [G]ar rogant young [F#m]ruffian
is [Am]obviously [G]guilty
Though [D]nowhere does [Em]it say exactly [G]how or why he [D]killed her[Em]"[D][Em]
[D][Em][G][D][Em][G]
[Em][G][F#m][Am][G][D][Em][G]
[D][Em][D][Em]
[D]"Forget it dear, it's not the[Em] first,
there's [G]bound to be an[D]other
The way you carry [Em]on you'll have u[G]s thinking
she's [Em]your mother
[G]This man called Lee has [F#m]had his day
and [Am]soon he'll be forgot[G]ten
So [D]put that paper [Em]down before [G]your breakfast goes
quite [D]rotten"[Em]
