[Verse 2]

On the corner is a Banker with a motor - car,
D7 G G/F# G/E G/D Gm7
The little children laugh at him be - hind his back,

And the Banker never wears a 'Mac',
D7sus4 D7 C
In the pouring rain, ...very strange!
[Chorus]
N.C. F F/A Bb Bb/F

And mean - while, back...

...In Penny Lane there is a Fireman with an hour - glass,
D7 G G/F# G/E G/D Gm7
And in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen,
Em7b5 Ebmaj7
He likes to keep his fire - engine clean,
D7sus4 D7 D7sus4 D7
It's a clean machine-----! | / / / / |

...Behind the shelter in the middle of the rounda - bout,
D7 G G/F# G/E G/D Gm7
The pretty Nurse is selling poppies from a tray,
Em7b5 Ebmaj7
And though she feels as if she's in a play,
D7sus4 D7 D7sus4 D7
She is anyway! | / / / / |
[Verse 5]
G G/F# G/E G/D C Am7 D7sus4
In Penny Lane the Barber shaves a - nother customer,
D7 G G/F# G/E G/D Gm7
We see the Banker sitting waiting for a trim,
Em7b5 Ebmaj7
And then the Fireman rushes in,
D7sus4 D7 C
From the pouring rain, ...very strange!
[Chorus]
N.C. F F/A Bb Bb/F
