Now somewhere in the black mountain hills of Dakota

There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
And one day his woman ran off with another guy
C C/B

Am7
He said "I'm gonna get that boy"
G7
So one day he walked into town
C C/B
Booked himself a room in the local saloon
D/E A E (x 2)
E D A E
Well, you should see Polythene Pam
D A E
She's so good looking but she looks like a man
G B
Well, you should see her in drag, dressed in her polythene bag
C D E
Yes, you should see Polythene Pam.
C D E
Yeah, yeah, yeah
D/E A E (x 2)
Get a dose of her in jackboots and kilt
She's killer diller when she's dressed to the hilt
She's the kind of a girl that makes the _News of the World_
Yes, you could say she was attractively built.
Yeah, yeah, yeah

G7 C
Sunday's on the phone to Monday
G7 C (go to 2/4 for the C)
Tuesday's on the phone to me
She said she'd always been a dancer
Worked in fifteen clubs a day
And though I thought I knew the answer
Well, I knew but I could not say
So I quit the police department
and got myself a steady job
And though she tried her best to help me
she could steal but she could not rob<*>
PS, I love you

Penny [G]Lane: there is a [Em]barber showing [Am7]photographs[D7]
Of every [G]head he's had the [Em]pleasure to [Gm7]know.
And all the [Em7-5]people that come and [Eb]go
Stop and [D7]say hello.[C]
Penny [F]Lane is in my ears and in [Am7]my ey[Bb]es.
[F]Wet beneath the blue subur[Am7]ban sk[Bb]ies,
I sit and [Cdim]meanwhile:[D7]
On the corner is a banker with a motor car.
The little children laugh at him behind his back.
And the banker never wears a "mac"
In the pouring rain.
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes.
Wet beneath the blue suburban skies,
I sit and meanwhile:
It took almost 30 years to get this song on a computer :-)
