A A C#m C#m B B
Frankly, Mr. Shankly, this position I've held
C#m C#m B B E E
It pays my way, and it corrodes my soul
A A C#m C#m B B
I want to leave, you will not miss me
C#m C#m B B A A E E
I want to go down in musical history


A A C#m C#m B B
Frankly, Mr. Shankly, I'm a sickening wreck
C#m C#m B B E E
I've got the 21st century breathing down my neck
A A C#m C#m B B
I must move fast, you understand me
C#m C#m B B A A E E
I want to go down in celluloid history, Mr. Shankly


A A C#m C#m B B
Fame, Fame, fatal Fame
C#m C#m B B E E
It can play hideous tricks on the brain
A A
But still I'd rather be Famous
C#m C#m B B C#m C#m
Than righteous or holy, any day
B B A A E E
Any day, any day


A A C#m C#m B B
But sometimes I'd feel more fulfilled
C#m C#m B B E E
Making Christmas cards with the mentally ill
A A C#m C#m B B
I want to live and I want to Love
C#m C#m B B A A E E
I want to catch something that I might be ashamed of


A A C#m C#m B B
Frankly, Mr. Shankly, this position I've held
C#m C#m B B E E
It pays my way and it corrodes my soul
A A C#m C#m B B
Oh, I didn't realise that you wrote poetry
C#m C#m B B A A E E
I didn't realise you wrote such bloody awful poetry, Mr. Shankly


A A C#m C#m B B
Frankly, Mr. Shankly, since you ask
C#m C#m B B E E
You are a flatulent pain in the arse
A A C#m C#m B B
I do not mean to be so rude
C#m C#m B B A A
Still, I must speak frankly, Mr. Shankly
E E
Oh, give us your money !
