Intro:

Eb7, G7, C

Verse 1:

       C                   G7            C    C7
At the local dance, whilst posing by the door,
  F                                 C
A lady begged; "Would I come on the floor?"
  F                 Cdim
A-bove the band, my voice was heard,
      C            Am               D7   G7  C
Quite suddenly, it had occurred, to me...I'm bored!

Chorus 1:

    F
I'm bored, with everything I touch and see,
    C                C7
I'm bored, with expo-ses of LSD.
    F
I'm bored with Frank Sinatra's new LP,
         D7 (n.C)                   G7  C
And so I roar...(shoo-be-do-be-do); I'm bored.

Interlude:

C

Verse 2:

C                   G7                C     C7
 Drinking different coloured wines or beers, (chug-a-lug-chug-a-lug),
F                                      C (n.C)
 Just quite frankly leaves me bored to, tears for souvenirs...
    F                Cdim
And quite apart from what one hears,
     C                  Am                   D7     G7 C
I've been like this for years and years, you see?...en-nui.

Chorus 2:

    F
I'm bored, with Mother Nature or her son,
    C                 C7
I'm bored, with every-thing that should be done.
    F
And so, I just poke out my big red tongue and...
D7 (n.C)         G7  C
 (*Raspberry*)...I'm bored.

Bridge 1:

C
 I'm tired of art! (Drawing bored),
Sex is a drag! (In a boreding house, I daresay).
Awk! Australians bore me! (You mean the A-bore-iginals, don't you?)
(n.C)
 I'm bored to death! (Like mortar bored!)

Break:

(n.C)
 I am bored, I am bored...

(Repeat many times, in a Round)

(n.C)
  This is boredom you can afford from Cyril Bored.

Interlude:

C

Verse 3:

  C               G7                   C     C7
I hate each Julie Andrews film they've made,
    F                           C
I'm just a nasty, narrow-minded jade.
      F                 Cdim
Don't think that I will smile at it;
    C                 Am              D7 (n.C) G7   C
I'm not a weak-willed hypocrite, I'll say...   I'm bored!

Chorus 3:

    F
I'm bored, with with-it men in spotty ties,
    C                                C7
Who hum, (Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm), tiresome tunes like Edelweiss.
F                                            D7 (n.C) G7  C
 I'm bored, and when I hear it in a trice, I shout;   I'm bored!

Coda:

    D7                             G7
The only thing that ever interests me...
   C
Is ME! (Me! Me! Me! Me!)...

(Repeat 'me's' to Fade)
