 G
On my way to work
 C           Em
I rode a big green bus
 Em
I could see everything
  C             G
From the upper deck
 G
People came and went
 C        Em
Smoking cigarettes
 Em
I picked the packets up
  C             G
When the people left

 C               Am
But all the time I thought of you
             F
How far away the future seemed
                  Am
How could I so many dreams?
      C      A7       D
And one of them not come true
 
 G
On my way to work
 C           Em
I bought a magazine
 Em
Inside a pretty girl
 C           G
Who liked to water-ski
 G
She came from chichester
 C       Em 
To study history
 Em
She had removed her clothes
 C            G
For the likes of me

 C               Am
But all the time I thought of you
                   F
How would you know that I was there?
                    Am
How could I soul-search everywhere?
   C      A7      D
Without knowing what to do

 G
On my way to work
 C           Em
As I was clocking in
 Em
I could see everything
 C           G
How it came to be
 G
People come and go
 C           Em
Smoking cigarettes
 Em
I pick the packets up
 C              G
When the people leave

 C              Am
But all the time I think of you
               F
How far away the future seems
                 Am
How could I have so many dreams
       C         A7      D
And one of them not come true

 G                C Em
On my way to work
