GUITAR RIFF

# The higher you fly, the harder you fall

# The way that it goes, so they say

# No mountain's too high, no valley too low

# No river too wide on the way

# So you're gonna be a rock 'n' roll star

# Gonna make it on your own

# Write a song that everyone can sing along

# So you want to take a trip to the stars

# Can you find your way back home?

# You'll get your break but don't you wait too long

# The harder you try

# The lower you fall

# The way that it seems, so they say

# The mountain is high

# The valley so low

# You're losing your dreams on the way

# So you're gonna be a rock 'n' roll star

# Gonna make it on your own

# Write a song that everyone can sing along

# So you want to take a trip to the stars

# Can you find your way back home?

# You'll get your break

# But don't you wait too long

# Looking behind you

# All the bad times that you've had

# Looking before you

# Only good times...? #

# If I had 7,000 and you

# If I had all the bread, what I wouldn't give

# I'd dress you up like a star

# Rent us a Cadillac car

# If I had 7,000 and you

# If I had 50,000 and you

# If I had all the bread, what I wouldn't give

# I'd make a show on Broadway

# And you could be in the play

# If I had 50,000 and you

# If I had 100,000 and you

# If I had all the bread

# What I wouldn't give

# I'd buy my own private plane

# We'd spend our weekends in Spain

# If I had 100,000 and you

# But if I had a million dollars, baby, I don't need you

# If I had a million dollars, baby, I don't need you

# When you think of all that money, honey

# I'm sure you can understand I don't need you

# If I had a million dollars, baby, I don't need you

Making their debut on this week's Top Of The Pops, here's The Jam,

and an effervescent new 45 called In The City.

GUITAR RIFF

# In the city there's a thousand things I want to say to you

# But whenever I approach you

# You make me look a fool

# I wanna say, I wanna tell you

# About the young ideas

# But you turn them into fears

# In the city there's a thousand faces all shining bright

# And those golden faces are under 25

# They wanna say, they gonna tell ya

# About the young idea

# You better listen now you've said your bit... #

GUITAR RIFF

# And I know what you're thinking

# You still think I am cracked

# But you'd better listen, man

# Because the kids know where it's at

# In the city there's a thousand men in uniforms

# And I've heard they now have the right to kill a man

# We wanna say, we're gonna tell ya

# About the young idea

# And if it don't work, at least we still tried

# In the city

With all the Jubilee celebrations going on, we thought it appropriate

that Queen appear on this programme.

From their hit EP, this is called Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy.

# I can dim the lights and sing you songs full of sad things

# We can do the tango just for two

# I can serenade and gently play on your heart strings

# Be your Valentino just for you

# Ooh, love

# Ooh, lover boy

# What ya doin' tonight, hey, boy?

# Set my alarm, turn on my charm

# That's because I'm a good old-fashioned lover boy

# Ooh, let me feel your heartbeat

# Grow faster, faster

# Ooh, can you feel my love heat?

# Come on and sit on my hot seat of love

# And tell me how do you feel

# Right after all

# I'd like for you and I

# To go romancing

# Say the word, your wish is my command

# Ooh, love

# Ooh, lover boy

# What ya doin' tonight, hey boy?

# Write my letter, feel much better

# And use that fancy patter on the telephone

# When I'm not with you

# Think of you always

# I miss you

# When I'm not with you

# Think of me always I love you, love you

# Hey, boy, where d'you get it from?

# Hey, boy, where did you go?

# I learned my passion

# In the good old-fashioned school of lover boys... #

SPANISH GUITAR

# Long ago, high on a mountain in Mexico

# Lived a young shepherd boy, Angelo

# Who met a young girl and he loved her so

# Rich was she, came from a very high family

# Angelo knew it could never be

# They ran away to their destiny

# Running away together

# Running away forever, Angelo

# Running away from danger

# Hiding from every stranger, Angelo

# They knew it wasn't wrong

# They found a love so strong

# They took their lives that night

# And in the morning light

# They found them on the sand

# They saw them lying there

# Hand-in-hand

# Long ago, high on a mountain in Mexico

# Lived a young shepherd boy, Angelo

# Who met a young girl and he loved her so

# Running away together

# Running away forever, Angelo

# Running away from danger

# Hiding from every stranger Angelo

# They knew it wasn't wrong

# They found a love so strong

# When you passed me in the doorway

# Well, you took me with a glance

# I should have took that last bus home

# But I asked you for a dance

# Now we go steady to the pictures

# I always get chocolate stains on my pants

# My father, he's going crazy

# He says I'm living in a trance

# But I'm dancing in the moonlight

# It's caught me in its spotlight

# It's all right, all right

# Dancing in the moonlight

# On this long hot summer night

# It's three o'clock in the morning

# And I'm on the streets again

# I disobeyed another warning

# I should have been in by ten

# Now I won't get out till Sunday

# I'll have to say I stayed with friends

# Oh, but it's a habit worth forming

# If it means to justify the ends

# Dancing in the moonlight

# It's caught me in its spotlight

# It's all right, all right

# Dancing in the moonlight

# On this long hot summer night

# And I'm walking home

# My last bus has gone

# But I'm dancing in the moonlight. #

# Ooh, he's so cute!

# She is watching the detectives

# Oh when they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot

# They beat him up until the teardrops start

# But he can't be wounded cos he's got no heart

# Long shot of that jumping sign

# Visible shivers running down my spine

# Cut the baby taking off her clothes

# Close-up of the sign that says "We never close"

# You snatch a tune, you a match a cigarette

# She pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet

# I don't know how much more of this I can take

# She's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake

# She is watching the detectives

# "Ooh, he's so cute!"

# She is watching the detectives

# Oh, when they shoot shoot, shoot, shoot

# They beat him up until the teardrops start

# But he can't be wounded cos he's got no heart

# Watching the detectives

# Don't get cute!

# Watching the detectives

# I get so angry when the teardrops start

# But you can't be wounded when you got no heart

# Watching the detectives. #

GUITAR INTRO

# Well, I wake up in the morning

# Tell me baby, what do you see?

# I see my true love and she walks up and she kisses me

# I say, "Cor, baby, that's really free"

And now, it's that sad sweetheart from Swansea,

Bonnie Tyler, and It's A Heartache.

# It's a heartache

# Nothing but a heartache

# Hits you when it's too late

# Hits you when you're down

# It's a fool's game

# Nothing but a fools game

# Standing in the cold rain

# Feeling like a clown

# It's a heartache

# Nothing but a heartache

# Love him till your arms break

# Then he lets you down

# It ain't right with love to share

# When you find he doesn't care for you

# It ain't wise to need someone

# As much as I depended on you

# It's a heartache

# Nothing but a heartache

# Love him till your arms break

# Then he lets you down

# It's a fool's game

# Nothing but a fools game

# Standing in the cold rain

# Feeling like a clown... #

GUITAR SOLO

# It ain't right with love to share

# When you find he doesn't care for you

# It ain't wise to need someone

# As much as I depended on you

# Ah, it's a heartache

# Nothing but a heartache

# Love him till your arms break

# Then he lets you down

# It's a fool's game

# Standing in the cold rain... #

I know the Paul McCartney family will be celebrating their Christmas

up in Scotland in a big way this year,

cos they're still at number one, in their beautiful Mull Of Kintyre

# Mull of Kintyre

# Oh, mist rolling in from the sea

# My desire is always to be here

# Oh, Mull of Kintyre

# Far have I travelled

# And much have I seen

# Dark distant mountains with valleys of green

# Past painted deserts

# The sunset's on fire

# As he carries me home to the Mull of Kintyre... #
