CYou can read right through a book of matches  A
DmBut that won’t make Gyou smart
CYou can laugh in the face of watcC7hes
FBut time will only break your heFmart

FKings reign beneath umbFmrellas
CHide pennies down in cAellars
DmAnd money pours down and yAet
DmNo everyone gets soaking Gwet

CWhen bores and bullies cFonspire
E7To stamp out yourA7 spark
D7Listen for

A VoG7ice In The Dark     C

CNot a moment too soon as we Am7blue the moon Dm7         G
CAnd a wolf begins to Am7howl in Dm7tune    G
CI announced for all mankAm7ind   Dm7

      G

CStand aside you big baboon    C7
Now I’m the a prize invenFtion
You’re the image oFmf yourself
ForgetC your cares
And disapproviAng stares
D7I’m not here to try to jump your borders
GJust ask your nieces and daughters
CI’m flat as solAm7e, I’m happDm7y as a clam G
CBut they don’t Am7know the kiDm7nd of man I Gam                       D♯dim
CLittle fish swiAm7mming in a jealous Dm7shoal    G
Now my net is oCverflowing     C7
And I suddenly seem to beF all seeing and all knFmowing
I’ve goCt something right there
That you might wAant to hear
D7But have no fear
Lend a hand
Lend an ear
GIf your rent-money is in arrears

CWe’ll be striking up a symphony banAdstand
DmLong of hair and loose oGf tooth
CThere’ll be pirouettes and startling handsC7tands
FAnd who but acrobats know how to tell the truth                     Fm
FmWhen is said that then redundant
CThey gallivant in peg-leg paAnts
DmI‘ll be your servant
You’ll be myA pal
DmI’ll be ever faithful you know I shGall
CThere’s no fool like an oFld fool
E7Who blames it all upon his yAouth
DmWhen times are tough Gand you find you’re down                  C
Without a star to wish upon  A
Just liD7sten for

A Voice In The Dark       G

CI was striking through a box of matcheAs
DmHoping that one wGould spark
CI heard somebody calling to C7me
FA voice in the dark

FA sound both wild andFm gentle
CDaring and confidenAtial
DmI thought there was music playing
BDm7ut it was all and only talk   G
CWhen liars and bullies cFonspire to stamp out youCr spark      A
D7Fill up that empty space in Gyour heart
CListen up, when the herald says,A “Hark”
D7Believe in just a voicGe in the dark            C
