I p[C]ut on my raincoat to m[D]ake it rain

and s[Em]ure enough the skies opened [D]up again

I dr[C]eamed of you as I w[D]alked to the shops,

you were d[Bm]ancing with the wallies on [Em]Top of the Pops

[C]once [C/B]in a wh[D]ile

Gen[C]nady Ge[C/B]rasimov d[D]rops his smile

and y[C]ou can see that his a[D]im's

a portf[Bm]olio pregnant with g[Em]ains

he's b[C]een [C/B]up all n[D]ight

moving the goalp[C]ost[C/B]s[Am][G]

like a j[Bm]ackdaw with a fiery brand,

s[Em]pread the news all over this land

[Am]robin hood and his merry men

are n[D]ever never never coming back again
