| Eb | Bb | Eb | Bb |  | I was on the | M1, | stuck in heavy | traffic, |  
|  | Eb | Bb | Ab | Eb |  | I'd | had enough | of it, and | decided to | get off it |  
| Ab | Eb | Fm | Ab |  | Cruising down a | country lane, the | wind upon my | bonnet |  
|  | Gm | Ab | Gm | Fm |  | I | saw a sign for | Blatherwyke, a | name which invites | comment |    
|  | Eb | Bb | Eb | Bb |  | There | is a place called | Blatherwyke, you | might not have heard | of it |  
|  | Eb | Bb | Ab | Eb |  | But | half a mile down | to the right, and | I'd have come a | cross it |
