Frankly Mr Shankly  Smiths



[G]Frankly, Mr. Shankly, this po[B#m]sition I've [A]held
It [B#m]pays my [A]way, and it corr[D]odes my soul
I want to [G]leave, you will not [B#m]miss me  [A]
I want to [B#m]go down in [A]musical his[G]tory     [D]
VERSE 2
[G]Frankly, Mr. Shankly, I'm a [B#m]sickening [A]wreck

I've got the [B#m]21st c[A]entury b[D]reathing down my neck

I must move f[G]ast, you under[B#m]stand me [A]
I want to go [B#m]down in [A]celluloid [G]history, Mr. Shankly
MIDDLE


VERSE 3
[G]Fame, Fame, fatal [B#m]Fame   [A]

It can play [B#m]hideous [A]tricks on the [D]brain

But still I'd r[G]ather be famous
Than [B#m]righteous or [A]holy
[B#m]Any day, any [A]day, any [G]day      [D]
VERSE 4
But [G]sometimes I'd feel more ful[B#m]filled   [A]

Making [B#m]Christmas cards[A] with the mentally [D]ill

I want to [G]live and I want to [B#m]Love    [A]
I want to [B#m]catch something that [A]I might be a[G]shamed of  [D]
VERSE 5
[G]Frankly, Mr. Shankly, this po[B#m]sition I've [A]held

It [B#m]pays my [A]way and it cor[D]rodes my soul

Oh, I didn't r[G]ealise that you wrote [B#m]poetry [A]
I didn't [B#m]realise you wrote [A]such bloody awful [G]poetry, Mr. Shankly   [D]
VERSE 6

[G]Frankly, Mr. Shankly, since y[B#m]ou ask [A]

You are a [B#m]flatulent [A]pain in the [D]arse
I didn't [G]mean to be so [B#m]rude  [A]
Still, I [B#m]must speak [A]frankly, Mr. [G]Shankly
Oh, give us your [D]money !
