Too many Florence Nightingales
AmC
Not enough Robin Hoods
Fmaj7E7
Too many halos not enough heroes
Am
Coming up with the goods
Fmaj7E7
So you thought you'd like to change the world
AmC
Decided to stage a jumble sale
Fmaj7E7Am
For the poor for the poor
Fmaj7E7
So you thought you'd like to see them healed
AmC
Got Blue Peter to stage an appeal
Fmaj7 E7 Am (let ring)
For the poor for the poor
Fmaj7E7
Its a waste of time if you know what they mean
AmC
Try shaking your box in front of the Queen
Fmaj7E7
'Cause her purse is full and bursting at the seams
Am
Its a waste of time if you know what they mean
FEAAmFEAAmFmaj7E7
Too many hands in too many pockets

Not enough hands on hearts

Too many ready to call it a day
Am
Before the day starts

So you thought you'd like to see them healed
