Albert Hammond Bootleg

• Bb

Bb                          F 
Dragging my guitar 'round maternity ward 
      Bb                 F 
I was in search of the umbilical chord   
           Bb               F 
But it was all in vain so I jumped on a train 
           Bb                  F 
And when I reached my home the kids were on the patio 
Bb                        F 
Looking quite upset, so I asked them what was wrong 
         Ab                        Db                            Ab 
And they said "beware - there's an Albert Hammond bootleg in the house 
             Db                            Ab 
In there, an Albert Hammond bootleg in the house, some man 
    Db                            Ab 
Who introduced himself as Stanley Rous came in 
             Db                            Bb       F 
And left his Albert Hammond bootleg in the house". 
Bb                       F 
Talking to a girl on the south coast of France 
        Bb                F 
She was on an 18-30 but I still took a chance 
    Bb                           F 
But on the last night 'neath the stars of Marseilles 
    Bb                         F 
She said that Robin Askwith was funny. 
Ab      Db                           Ab 
Oh God, how I longed for a dangerous wave 
           Db                           Ab 
So I could surf myself towards an early grave 
        Db                              Ab 
I would rather talk to plankton than to dance with you 
  Db                               Bb   F 
I hope your plane back home's a DC 10. 
Ab      Db                           Ab 
Oh God, how I longed for a dangerous wave 
           Db                           Ab 
So I could surf myself towards an early grave 
        Db                              Ab 
I would rather talk to plankton than to dance with you 
  Db                               Ab 
I hope your plane back home's a DC 10. 
            Db              Ab 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh 
            Db              Ab 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh 
            Db              Ab 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh 
            Db         Ab Db Ab Db 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh really. 
Db              Ab      Db           Ab 
Out of pure curiosity I dug up Logie Baird 
      Db                       Ab             Db               Ab 
And I asked him what Petrified Forests see to make them all so scared.
