Mr Humphries
{Verse 1]
Bb Am Gm F
Try and be kind to Mr Humphries in room 5
Bb Am Gm F
He gets grumpy trying to keep hope alive
Eb Dm
And though the well has dried up
Eb Dm
He won’t give or shut up
Eb Dm
He just keeps hoping, Hoping
{Verse 2]
Bb Am Gm F
He spent all his life on the television
Bb Am Gm F
He even had a catch phrase of his own
Eb Dm
Always made a great entrance on the stage
Eb Dm
A free man walking from a cage
Eb Dm
Millions loved him Hoping
{Verse 3]
Bb Am Gm F
His advice to the young Always leave ’em wanting more
Bb Am Gm F
You can’t calm the savage beast But you can make him less of a bore
Eb Dm
The heart it don’t need
Eb Dm
Brave words or deeds
Eb Dm Eb Ebsus2 Eb Dm
It just keeps hoping hoping hoping hoping
[Chorus]
Gm F
Keep it light, keep it bright
Am Cm
You’re the one thing they forget
Gm F
And in the end no one’s a friend
Am Cm
And your fortune becomes a debt
{Verse 4]
Bb Am Gm F
So be kind to Mr Humphries, Though you think his role is small
Bb Bbadd2 Bb Am Gm Gmadd9 Gm F
And a smile breaks down the darkness, Never has to beg, never has to crawl
Eb Dm
Every breath is a prayer
Eb Dm
Don’t cave in or scare
Eb Dm Eb Ebsus2 Eb Dm
It just keeps hoping hoping hoping hoping
[Chorus]
Gm F
You won’t find the sun
Am Cm
If the dead light your way
Gm F
So distract ’em, keep ’em laughing
Am Cm
Cause you’ll never have enough to pay
Gm F Am Cm
