Garry Smythe Please e - mail any corrections to:- [email protected] =========================================================================== BEATLES SING THIS IN “E” [Verse 1] E Standing in the dock at Southampton, Trying to get to Holland or France E7 The Man in the Mac said, you gotta go back You know they didn’t even give us a chance [Chorus] A E Christ you know it ain’t easy, you know how hard it can be B7 E The way things are going, they’re gonna crucify me. [Verse 2] E Finally made the plane into Paris Honeymooning down by the Seine E7 Peter brown called to say, you can make it ok You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain [Chorus] A E Christ you know it ain’t easy, you know how hard it can be B7 E The way things are going, they’re gonna crucify me. [Verse 3] E Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton Talking in our beds for a week E7 The newspapers said what you doing in bed I said we're only trying to get us some peace [Chorus] A E Christ you know it ain’t easy, you know how hard it can be B7 E The way things are going, they’re gonna crucify me. [Bridge] A Saving all your money for a rainy day Giving all your clothes to charity Last night the wife said oh boy when you’re dead B7 You don’t take nothing with you but your soul.. B7 Think! [Verse 4] E Made a lightning trip to Vienna Eating chocolate cake in a bag E7 The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head They look just like two gurus in drag” [Chorus] A E Christ you know it ain’t easy, you know how hard it can be B7 E The way things are going, they’re gonna crucify me. [Verse 5] E Caught the early plane back to London Fifty acorns tied in a sack E7 The men from the press say "We wish you success It's good to have the both of you back" [Chorus] A E Christ you know it ain’t easy, you know how hard it can be B7 E The way things are going, they’re gonna crucify me. B7 E The way things are going, they’re gonna crucify me.
