YCou can read right through a bA7ook of matches
BDm7ut that won't make yoG7u smart
YCou can laugh in the fC7ace of watches
BFut time will only bFmreak your heart
KFings reign benFmeath umbrellas
HCide pennies dA7own in cellars
ADmnd money pours dA7own and yet
NDm7o everyone gets sG7oaking wet
WChen bores and bullies coFnspire
TE7o stamp out your A7spark
LD7isten for…
A VoiG7ce In The Dark C 
NCot a moment too sAm7oon as we bDm7lue the G7moon
ACnd a wolf bAm7egins to hDm7owl in tG7une
IC announced for aAm7ll mankiDm7nd a bG7oon
SCtand aside you big babC7oon
Now I'm the aF prize invention
You're the iFmmage of yourself
FCorget your cares
And disapA7proving stares
ID7'm not here to try to jump your borders
JG7ust ask your nieces and daughters
IC'm flat as soleAm7 I'm happyDm7 as a clam G7 
BCut they don't kAm7now the kinDm7d of man I aG7m (alt C forA thiDbs linD7e onlG7y)
LCittle fish swimAm7ming in a jDm7ealous shG7oal
Now my nCet is overflowiC7ng
And I suddenly sFeem to be all seeing aFmnd all knowing
I've gotC something right there
That you mA7ight want to hear
BD7ut have no fear
Lend a hand
Lend an ear
IG7f your rent-money is in arrears
WCe'll be striking up a symphony bA7andstand
LDm7ong of hair and lG7oose of tooth
TChere'll be pirouettes and sC7tartling handstands
AFnd who but acrobats know how to tFmell the truth
WFhen is said that tFmhen redundant
TChey gallivant in pA7eg-leg pants
IDm7'll be your servant
You'll bA7e my pal
IDm7'll be ever faithful you kG7now I shall
TChere's no fool lFike an old fool
WE7ho blames it all uA7pon his youth
WDm7hen times are tG7ough and you find you're down
WEm7ithout a sA7tar to wish upon
JD7ust listen for a VG7oice In The DaCrk
IC was striking through a bA7ox of matches
HDm7oping that oG7ne would spark
IC heard somebody cC7alling to me
AF voice in the dark
AF sound both wild and Fmgentle
DEm7aring and cA7onfidential
IDm7 thought there was mA7usic playing
BDm7ut it was all and G7only talk
WChen liars and bFullies conspire tE7o stamp out yA7our spark
FD7ill up that empty sGpace in your heart
LEm7isten up when the hA7erald says "Hark"
BD7elieve in just a vG7oice in the dCark…
