Capo 1
Am F G Am
Harry was a bus driver, he was a very forthright man
Am F G Am
He'd run down the road right over a dog before he'd change his path
F G C Am F G Am
And then he met lovely Loraine they had a rough and tumble lad
F G C Am F G Am
And it didn't come easy but the boy learned to play on a twelve pound pawn shop axe
Chorus:
F G C Am
Everybody sing loud and shout
F G Am
Dreamin he’s a pop star
F G C Am
The boys came about that mersey beat sound
F E
With crude little sketches of 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
Chorus

-SMERSH4346 | 9/7/2004 | Great tab. Do you know what the little 3 note riff that starts the song off is? -SMERSH4346 | 9/7/2004 | I think on the end of that riff if I remember right is

Great job on the tab. -Murph316 | 12/25/2004 | Great job with the tab...I think the capo is on the 2nd freat instead the 1st.. -bruces1234 | 2/19/2005 | Just checked it and it is capo 1 for this particular one because this is the studio version - but, Bruce, you are correct on the live one. The live one is capo 2, same chords!
