Intro: C

F                            Am         G
Frankly, Mr. Shankly, this position Iʼve held
   Am      G               C
It pays my way, and it corrodes my soul
         F                   Am     G
I want to leave, you will not miss me
         Am         G          F   C
I want to Go down in musical history

F                           Am       G
Frankly, Mr. Shankly, Iʼm a sickening wreck
             Am    G       C
Iʼve got the 21st century breathing down my neck
             F             Am    G
I must move fast, you understand me
             Am      G         F                  C
I want to Go down in celluloid history, Mr. Shankly

F                 Am G
Fame, Fame, fatal Fame
            Am      G             C
It can play hideous tricks on the brain
               F
But still Iʼd rather be famous
     Am           G
Than righteous or holy
Am           G        F C
Any day, any day, any day

    F                          Am   G
But sometimes Iʼd feel more fulfilled
       Am            G                  C
Making Christmas cards with the mentally ill
          F                  Am G
I want to live and I want to Love
          Am                   G           F       C
I want to catch something that I might be ashamed of

F                            Am          G
Frankly, Mr. Shankly, this position Iʼve held
   Am      G             C
It pays my way and it corrodes my soul
              F                     Am  G
Oh, I didnʼt realise that you wrote poetry
         Am                G                 F                C
I didnʼt realise you wrote such bloody awful poetry, Mr. Shankly

F                            Am     G
Frankly, Mr. Shankly, since you asked
          Am        G           C
You are a flatulent pain in the arse
         F             Am G
I didnʼt mean to be so rude
         Am         G            F
Still, I must speak frankly, Mr. Shankly
                 C
Oh, give us your money!
