I [E]shout all my obscenities from [A]steeples[B7] but please don't label me a [E]madman
I'm off to see the Bootleg [A]Beatles[B7] as the bootleg Mark [E]Chapman.
[A]Cafe bars, idiots and [E]pigeons [A]- there's far too many in this [B7]town
So me and [E]ombudsman are gonna [A]do what we can
B7 E (E A B7 E x2)
When the evening sun goes down.
Yes some of my pullovers are [A]roll-necked,[B7] it kind of breaks up the [E]ennui
But your experimental side [A]project[B7] must have put ten years [E]on me.
[A]Opposite the Bannister & [E]Shamrock [A]- which used to be the Rose & [B7]Crown
I like to [E]play Pat Boone on the [A]county bassoon
When the [B7]evening sun goes [E]dow-[D#]ow-[D]ow-[C#]own
When the [B7]evening sun goes [E]down, get on down.
When the evening sun, when the evening sun, when the [A]evening [B7]sun goes [E]down
When the evening sun, when the evening sun, when the [A]evening [B7]sun goes [E]down.
There are questions in corners of my mind that lurk
When the [A]evening [B7]sun goes [E]down
Like how do the road gritters get to work?
When the [A]evening [B7]sun goes [E]down
Answer me that and you could win a cruise
When the [A]evening [B7]sun goes [E]down
Here's Judy Tzuke to take us up to the news
When the [A]evening [B7]sun goes [E]down.
[A]Are these my ultimate pyj[E]amas;[A] is this my final dressing [B7]gown?
I'm sending [E]on this rhyme deep in [A]injury time
When the [B7]evening sun goes [E]down, when the [B7]evening sun goes [E]down,
When the [B7]evening sun goes [E]down.
