Verse 1:
While st[G]anding at the ju[F]nction
[C7] On 42nd Str[G]eet
I i[G]dly kicked a p[F]ebble
[C7] Lyin' near my f[G]eet
W[Em]hoa, I hear a weird n[B7]oise
[Em] Take a look up and d[B7]own
[G] The cause of the comm[F]otion
[C7] Is right there on the gr[G]ound
[Em]Imagine my sur[Em+7/D#]prise
[Em7/D]Thought I'd left it at [Em6/C#]home yeah
[Am]But there's no doubt about it its my
[Em]Own t[Am]ombst[Em]one[Em][Am][Em]
Verse 2:
I went into a shop
Bought a loaf of bread
I sunk my teeth into it
Thought I'd busted my head
Oh, I dashed to the dentist
Hey, hey, I got an awful pain, yeah
This man looks in my mouth and screams
This boy's insane
Imagine my surprise
Thought I'd left it at home, yeah
There's a lump in my mouth of my
Own tombstone
Instrumental break:
(abbreviated verse: piano solo over first four lines; guitar solo
from "Imagine my surprise" onward)
Verse 3:
I went in to see a movie
Got the only empty seat
I tried to stretch out in it
Something blockin' my feet
Finally the lights came up
And I could clearly see
A slab of engraved marble
Just starin' up at me
Imagine my surprise
I thought I'd left it at home
There's no doubt I'm sittin on my
Em Am Em (end cold)
Own tombstone
