Intro    E -  Gb/D  (Repeat a Few times)

E                               F#/D
Five miles out of London on the Western Avenue
E                               F#/D
Must have been a wonder when it was brand new
E                                  F#/D
Talkin' 'bout the splendour of the Hoover factory
E                                  D       E
I know that you'd agree if you had seen it too
A    Ab/A  F#/A  E/A B7
It's not a matter of life or death
E               A
what is, what is ?
F#m                    B7
It doesn't matter if I take another breath
    E                 B7
Who cares ? Who cares ?

E                 
Green for go, green for action
F#/D                     E      A - Bb - B
From Park Royal to North Acton
     E                             A            Ab/A     F#m  B7
Past scrolls and inscriptions like those of the Egyptian age
    A      Ab/A  F#/A E/A B7
And one of these days the Hoover factory
   C#m              F#                        B7   (Hold)
Is gonna be all the rage in those fashionable pages
E                               F#/D
Five miles out of London on the Western Avenue
E                               F#/D
Must have been a wonder when it was brand new
E                                  F#/D
Talkin' 'bout the splendour of the Hoover factory
E                                  D       E
I know that you'd agree if you had seen it too
A    Ab/A  F#/A  E/A B7
It's not a matter of life or death
     E          A
what is, what is ?
F#m                    B7
It doesn't matter if I take another breath
    G           C
Who cares ? Who cares ?
    F                E - Eb - D - E 
Who cares ? Who cares ?
