verse 1 

G                          Am 
She wanted her face to be famous  
                               G 
She dragged it off down to the smoke 
                                    C 
Where she went on a show where they turn dreams to gold  
G             D            G  
And give real people false hope 

verse 2 

G                          Am 
She needed the comfort she needed the cheer  
                               G 
Her children had all flown the nest 
                          C 
She desperately wanted to change her career  
       G              D            G  
To the thing that she felt she did best

G                   C 
Giving real hope to false people  
G                        D 
Telling the world it can sing 
G             C    
False hope to real folk  
        G            D            G 
You can sing you can sing you can sing 

verse 3 
G                              Am 
He worked in a shop where they hated his guts 
                          G 
Lived in a house just the same 
                       C 
And all that he ever requested in life 
       G             D          G  
Was no swear word prefix in his name 

verse 4 
G                      Am 
He wanted the glory he wanted the fame  
                          G 
In limelight he wanted to soak 
                             C 
So he saved up the money and boarded the train 
              G            D           G  
To where they give plastic people real hope

     Am                        G 
Take heed if your dreams are a staring   
     Am                     G 
Dreamboat can end up on the rocks 
     Am                           G         Em 
That road paved with gold is just one block away  
         D                      G 
From the rear end of Top Of The Pops  
         D                      G 
From the rear end of Top Of The Pops 
       Am                    G 
If you want it don't tell us about it 
    Am                        G  
And if you don't get it don't cry 
     Am                 G           Em                
Just do as they say and follow your dreams 
  D                     G 
A fool is a weight of a fly  
  D                     G 
A fool is a weight of a fly
