1. In Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs
             C                  Ami         Cmi7
   of every head he's had the pleasure to know
                Ami7-5               G#maj7
   and all the people that come and go
             G7sus   G7 G7sus G7
   stop and say hello.

2. On the corner is a banker with a motorcar
   the little children laugh at him behind his back
   and the banker never wears a "mac"
           G7sus   G7          F
   in the pouring rain very strange.

R1: Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
      Bb                Bb/D          D#
    there beneath the blue suburban skies
               G
    I sit and meanwhile back.

3. In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass
   and in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen
   he likes to keep his fire engine clean
   it's a clean machine.
R2: Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
    full of fish and finger pies
    in summer meanwhile back.

4. Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout
   the pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray
   and though she feels as if she's in a play
   she is anyway.

5. In Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer
   we see the banker sitting waiting for a trim
   and then the fireman rushes in
   from the pouring rain very strange.
R1: Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes...

R3: Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
      C                 C/E           F
    there beneath the blue suburban skies,
           C
    Penny Lane ...
