Flag Day

Bbmaj7                    A
Too many Florence Nightingales
Dm                           F
Not enough Robin Hoods
Bbmaj7                     Am
Too many halos not enough heroes
Dm
Coming up with the goods

Bbmaj7                      A
So you thought you'd like to change the world
Dm                             F
Decided to stage a jumble sale
Bbmaj7                   Dm
For the poor for the poor

Bbmaj7                        A
Its a waste of time if you know what they mean
Dm                              F
Try shaking a box in front of the Queen
Bbmaj7                        Am
'Cause her purse is fat and bursting at the seams
Bbmaj7                        A
Its a waste of time if you know what they mean

Bbmaj7                         A
Too many hands in too many pockets
Dm                                F
Not enough hands on hearts
Bbmaj7                           Am
Too many ready to call it a day
Dm
Before the day starts

So you thought you'd like to see them healed
Got Blue Peter to stage an appeal
For the poor for the poor
