Verse 1:

G F

While standing at the junction

C7 G

On 42nd Street

G F

I idly kicked a pebble

C7 G

Lyin' near my feet

Em B7

Whoa, I hear a weird noise

Em B7

Take a look up and down

G F

The cause of the commotion

C7 G

Is right there on the ground

Em Em+7/D#

Imagine my surprise

Em7/D Em6/C#

Thought I'd left it at home yeah

Am

But there's no doubt about it its my

Em Am Em Em Am Em

Own tombstone

Verse 2:

I went into a shop

Bought a loaf of bread

I sunk my teeth into it

Thought I'd busted my head

Oh, I dashed to the dentist

Hey, hey, I got an awful pain, yeah

This man looks in my mouth and screams

This boy's insane

Imagine my surprise

Thought I'd left it at home, yeah

There's a lump in my mouth of my

Own tombstone

Instrumental break:

(abbreviated verse: piano solo over first four lines; guitar solo

from "Imagine my surprise" onward)

Verse 3:

I went in to see a movie

Got the only empty seat

I tried to stretch out in it

Something blockin' my feet

Finally the lights came up

And I could clearly see

A slab of engraved marble

Just starin' up at me

Imagine my surprise

I thought I'd left it at home

There's no doubt I'm sittin on my

Em Am Em [end cold]

Own tombstone

-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
