Kilroy Was Here:The Move.
On the charts in UK in 1968.
#1.
[D]There's a fellow [A]roaming round the [D]street,
I think most of [A]all I'd like to [D]meet.
I [G]must consider [Em]him a clever [D]lad,
[G]making like a [Em]young Sir Gala[A]had.
#2.
[D]Everywhere I [A]go I think he's [D]been,
he autographs the [A]walls around the [D]scene.
If [G]you look hard [Em]enough you'll find him [D]there,
in [G]rooms and public [Em]places every[A]where.
CHORUS:
[D]Kilroy was here..left his [C]name around the [D]place.
[D]Kilroy was here..though I've [C]never seen his [D]face.
#3.
[D]On a short va[A]cation with my [D]friends,
[D]I found I had time [A]on my hands to [D]spend.
[G]Surveyed my tele[Em]scope around the [D]land,
and [G]saw his name im[Em]printed in the [A]sand.
CHORUS:
[D]Kilroy was here..left his [C]name around the [D]place.
[D]Kilroy was here..though I've [C]never seen his [D]face.
I [F#]wonder could he be a cava[G]lier, or a roving muske[A]teer,
or just a [G]dustman who's in[F#]sane.
[F#]Everyplace regardless where or [G]when,
[G]the public poet strikes a[A]gain, and a[G]gain, and a[F#]gain.
#4.
[D]If I ever [A]meet that man at [D]all, I'll hang a plaque [A]upon
my bedroom [D]wall..a [G]monument [Em]erected in his [D]name,
would [G]help to con[Em]tribute towards his [A]fame.
CHORUS:
[D]Kilroy was here..left his [C]name around the [D]place.
[D]Kilroy was here..though I've [C]never seen his [D]face.
OUTRO:
[D]Kilroy was here..left his [C]name around the [D]place.
[D]Kilroy was here..though I've [C]never seen his [D]face.(Fade.)
