Hollies, Bus Stop (1966)
Key: :[F#m] (w: Graham Gouldman)
INTRO: [*R1 x2]
VERSE 1:
[F#m] Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say, please share my umbrella
Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows, under my umbrella ^
[E7]
[A] All that
[E] summer
[F#m] we enjoyed it,
[Bm] wind and rain and
[C#m] shine
[F#m] That umbrella, we employed it, by August
[C#m] she was
[F#m] mine
CHORUS:
[A] Every morning
[G#] I would see her
[C#m] waiting at the
[A] stop
Sometimes she'd
[F#m] shopped and she would
[G#] show me what she
[C#m] bought
[A] Other people
[G#] stared as if we
[C#m] were both quite in-
[A]-sane
Someday my
[F#m] name and hers are
[G#] going to be the
[C#m] same
VERSE 2:
[F#m] That's the way the whole thing started, silly but it's true
Thinkin' of a sweet romance, beginning in a queue ^
[E7]
[A] Came the
[E] sun the
[F#m] ice was melting,
[Bm] no more sheltering
[C#m] now
[F#m] Nice to think that that umbrella, led me
[C#m] to a
[F#m] vow
INSTRUMENTAL: [F#m x7] [F#]
