TITLE: Penny Lane
Lyrics and Chords


In Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs
Of every head he's had the pleasure to have known
And all the people that come and go
Stop and say hello

/ A F#m Bm E / A F#m C - / Am - F - E - D - /

On the corner is a banker with a motorcar
The little children laugh at him behind his back
And the banker never wears a mac
In the pouring rain, very strange

{Refrain}
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
Wet beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit, and meanwhile back

/ G - - - C - - - / G - - - / C - E - /

In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass
And in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen
He likes to keep his fire engine clean
It's a clean machine

{As Refrain}
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
Full of fish and finger pies
In summer, meanwhile back

Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout
The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray
And though she feels as if she's in a play
She is anyway

In Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer
We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim
And then the fireman rushes in
From the pouring rain, very strange

{Refrain}

Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes
Wet beneath the blue suburban skies
Penny Lane

/ A - - - D - - - / / A - - - /
