A well-known Bognor restaurant-owner [Am7/G]disappeared
Early this morning.
[Am7/G]Last seen in a m[Am7/F]ouse-brown overcoat,
Suitably camouflaged,
They saw him catch a train.Father of three its disgusting
Such a horrible thing to do
Harold ‘the Barrel’ cut off his toes and he served them all for tea
Can’t go far, [Dm/F]
he can’t go far.
Hasn’t got a leg to stand on[Dm/F]
He can’t go far.
I’m standing in a do[Am7/G]orway on the main square
Tension is [Am7/G]mounting
There’s a r[Am7/G]estless crowd of a[Am7/F]ngry people
More than we’ve ever seen.
- had to tighten up security
Over to the scene at the town hall
The lord mayors ready to speak
Man of suspicion, you can’t last long
The British public is on our side
Can’t last long, [Dm/F]
you can’t last long.
Said you couldn’t trust him, his brother was just the same
You can’t last long
If I was many miles from here,
Id be sailing in an open boat on the sea
Instead I’m on this window ledge,
With the whole world below
Up at the window
Look at the window…
We can help you
We can help you
Were all your friends, if you c[Bm/A]ome on [Bm/G#]down
And talk to us son
You must be joking
Take a running jump
The crowd was getting stronger and our Harold
Getting weaker;
F[Am7/G]orwards, backwards, swayi[Am7/F]ng side to side
Fearing the very worst
They called his mother to the site
Up on the ledge beside him
His mother made a last request.
Come off the ledge if your father were alive
He’d be very,very, very upset.
Just can’t jump,[Dm/F]
You just can’t jump
Your shirts all dirty,
There’s a man here from the B. B. C.
You just can’t jump
We can help you
We can help you
Were all your friends, i[Bm/A]f you come on down
And talk to us Harry
You must be joking.
Take a running jump……
