Groovy Times

Clash
 E/G#m/A/B
 DA
 High Street shops are boarded up,
 BmG
and the terrace it is fenced in.
 DA
 See-through shields are walled across
 BmG
the way that you came in.
 DA
But there's no need to get excited,
 BmG
As the lorries bring the bacon in,
 DA
'Cause the housewives are all singin',
 BmGABm
"Groovy times are here a-gain."

(as above)
 DA
 They discovered on Black Saturday,
 BmG
That mobs don't march, they run (they run)
 DA
 So you you can excuse the nervous triggerman,
 BmG
for this once jumping the gun.
 DA
 They were picking up the dead,
 BmG
Out of the broken glass,
 DA
 Yes, it's number one, hit radio says
 BmG
"Groovy times are here at last."

 EG#mAB
 Groo-oo---vy times,
 EG#mAB
 Groo-oo---vy times,
 EG#mAB
 Groo-oo---vy times.

(chords under solo as chorus - 3X E/G#M/A/B, 1X B/A/G#m/E)

 B/A/G#m/E
Play this on acoustic. There's a bit enclosed within stars (**-7--9--7--**) that I'm not
too sure about.

(as verse 1)
 DA
 The intake is on the uptake,
 BmG
the acceleration's pretty grim.
 DA
 I can remember his first appearance,
 BmG
now look what's happened to him.
 DA
 They put him in a dog suit,
 BmG
like nineteen sixy four. 
 DA
 King of early evening ITV,
 BmG
"Groovy times forever more."  

(as chorus)
 EG#mAB
 Groo-oo-vy times,
 EG#mAB
 Groo-oo-vy times,
 EG#mAB
 Groo-oo-vy times.
