	It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play
	             G7                  A7
	They've been going in and out of style 
	            C7                    G7
	But they're guaranteed to raise a smile.
	   A7                         C7 
	So may I introduce to you the act you've know for all these years,
	G7            C7                 G7    
	Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

	The singer's going to sing a song, 
	       C7                     G7 
	And he wants you all to sing along.
	   A7                          C7      
	So let me introduce to you The one and only Billy Shears
