Hello morning, Mr. Edminton
F#5 G5 F#5 B?
Mr. Edminton, how are you feeling today?
C#5
I trust that life is treating you
C#5 F#5
The way that you want it to
G5
Of course, I'm joking with you
AND IT JUST GOES LIKE THAT THE REST OF THE SONG (just kidding)
D5
Hello, Mr. Lendingworth
G5 F#5 B?
Mr. Lendingworth, hope you're feeling ok
C#5 C#5
I've brought some books and a finance magazine
F#5
Because I feel bad for you
G5
I'll tell you another thing too
(During this part you should strum and then mute after struming to give it the right feel)
F#5 E5
Remember how they vowed to let that go
C#5
If your families paid the ransom
C#5
Well, I think you both should know
E5 F#5
That that's not their intention
C#5 C5 (Barre)
But I will help to set you free
F5
If you'll do something for me
D5 F#5 A5 (Barre)
I want an honest job in one of your factories
D5 G5
Please Mr. Edminton, Mr. Edminton
F#5 B?
Tell me that you'll agree
C#5 C#5
And I'll untie you from that chair presently
F#5
And get you away from here
G5
I'm judging by your tears
D5 G5
That you, Mr. Lendingworth, dear Mr. Lendingworth
F#5 B?
Desire a part in our scheme
C#5 C#5
Well, sir, I certainly would never even dream now
F#5
Of excluding you
G5
I'll tell you both what to do
(Go back to strum , mute)
F#5 E5
Tip toe down the spiral stairs
C#5
Then just before the cellar door
C#5
You'll see a painting of a juggler
B? B5 G#5
Touch his nose and that will open up a secret corridor
C#5 C5
Take the ladder at the end up to the street
F5
And run as fast as you can
D5 F#5
Then in a week or two
A5 A#5 F5 A#5
I'll start my job with you
D5 G5
You, Mr. Edminton, Mr. Lendingworth
F#5 B? C#5 A5 E5
Hurry before it's too late for us to escape
