[Ab]
[Eb]
Taken from the county jail by a set of curious chances
[Ab]
Liberated then on [Fm]
bail [B] on mere [C]
recognizances
[F] Lofted by a fav [C]'rin gale, [G] as one sometimes is [C] in trances
To a height that few [Db] can scale
[Bb] Saved by long and [D] weary [Eb]
dances
[Dbm]
Surely never had [Eb] a male [Dbm]
under such like [Eb]
circumstances
[Abm] So [B] adventure us a [E] tale which [Bb] may rank with most
[Ebm] promances
Taken from the county [Eb] jail by a set of curious chances
Liberated then [Ab]
on bail on mere [Db]
recognizances
So [Ab]
adventure us a tale

[Eb]
[Bb] As some days may happen that a victim must be found
I've [Eb] got a little list, I've got a little list
Of [Bb] society offenders who might well be [Eb] underground
And who never would [Bb] be missed, they never would be missed
[Gm] There's weightlifters and bodybuilders, [Fm] people of that sort
[F] Bank robbers who retire to Spain the minute they get caught
[Bb] Bishops who don't believe in [Eb] God, chief constables who do
[G] All people who host chat shows and the guests, what's on them too?
[Db] And customs men who fumbling [E] through your underwear [D] insist
I [Bb] don't think they'd be missed, I'm sure they'd not be missed
He's got a [Eb] little [Bb] list, he's got a little list
And they're none of [Ab] them [Bb] in this, they're
[Eb] in this
[D] There's the people with pretentious names like Justin, Trish and Rolf
[Eb] And the gynecologist, I've got him on the list
[N] All muggers, joggers, buggers, floggers, people who play golf
They never would be missed, they never would be [Gm] missed
All waitresses who make you wait, [Ab] accountants of all [Bb] kinds
And actresses who kiss and tell and [C] wiggle their behinds
And poncy little singers who to entertain astray
By dressing up like women and by singing far too high
[Dbm] And who on [Bb] close observance [D] must be either stoned or pissed
[F]
I don't think they'd be missed, I'm sure they'd not be missed
He's got a little list, [Eb]
[Ab] [Eb] they're none
[Bb] of them in this
There's the beggars who write letters from the inland revenue
[Eb] And the gossip columnist, I've got him on the list
All critics and comedians [Bb] and opera singers too
They'd none of them be missed, they'd none of them be missed
[G]
All traffic wardens, [Ab] bankers, men who sell Venetian [C] blinds
All advertising chappies and Australians of all kinds
And nasty little editors whose papers are the pits
Who fill their racks [G] with gossip and with huge and [Cm] [N] floppyrich
[A] And girls who sell [Dm] the stories of [D] the Tories they have kissed
[Eb] But you must have got [Bb] the gist, there's none of them be missed
You may [Gm] put them on the list, you may put them [Eb] on the list
