[C]
[G] Hello.
[C]
You the new butler?
It's been a [G] long time since I've been the new [D] anything.
What's happened to Hudson?
I guess he's changing.
Yeah, he does that a lot, doesn't he?
[G] I'm David Bowie.
I live down the road.
Sir Percival lets me use [C] his piano when he's not around.
He's not around, is he?
I can honestly say I haven't seen him, but come on [D] in.
I'm here.
[G]
Come on in.
Are you related to Sir Percival?
[C] Well, distantly, yeah.
Oh, you're not [A] the poor relation [G] from America, are you?
[C] Gee, news sure travels fast, doesn't it?
I'm Bing.
[G] Oh, I'm pleased to meet you.
You're the one that sings, right?
Well, right or [C] wrong, I sing either way.
Oh, I sing too.
Oh, good.
[D] What kind of singing?
Well, [G] mostly the contemporary stuff.
[Em] Do you [C] like modern music?
Oh, I think it's marvellous.
Some of it [D] really fine.
But tell me, do you ever listen to any of the older fellas?
Oh, yeah, sure.
I like John Lennon [A] and the other [G] one with Harry Nilsson.
Oh, you go back [Em] that far, huh?
Oh, yeah.
I'm not [C] as young as I look.
[Am] None of us is these days.
In fact, [D] I've got a six-year-old son, [G] and he really gets excited around the Christmas holidays.
Do you go in for any of the [C] traditional things in the boy household, [G] Christmas town?
Oh, yeah, most of them, really.
[C] Presents, tree decorations, [G] agents sliding down the chimney.
What?
I was [C] just seeing if you were paying attention.
[G] Actually, our family do most of the things that other families [C] do.
We sing the same songs.
Do you?
I even have a go at White Christmas.
[D] You do, huh?
And this one.
This is my son's favourite.
Do you know this one?
Oh, I do indeed.
It's a lovely thing.
