[A] _ _ _ [D] Say [E] London
[A] I'm hoping [F#m] you can help me out tonight
I'm trying [E] to help out my comrade
My comrade Bongo Eddie
[A] You see we've [D] been on the road
[C#m] On the new lifeboat party [F#m] tour
We've been out here for four [E] weeks now
And my friend [A] Bongo Eddie
He has a [D] bad habit [E] you see
[A] On our first stop in [F#m] Scandinavia
He fell in love with a beautiful blonde
[C#m] And the next day he came to me and said [A] Kid
[D] She broke my [A] heart
In a thousand [F#m] pieces
_ [D] _ [E] I said Bongo
Have [A] you not learned your lesson [D] yet?
_ [E] [A] But he didn't.
Next stop [F#] was Norway.
He [D] did the same thing.
[E] Fell in love with another beautiful [A] babe.
The following day [Bm] she broke [E] his heart.
[A] He comes knocking on [F#m] my door.
He said, kid, [D] _ [E] she broke my heart.
_ [A]
In a [D] thousand pieces.
[E] I said, [A] Bongo, you'll never learn your lesson.
[F#m]
And the [D] lesson is, [E] never make a pretty woman your wife.
[A] Because she'll only bring [D] misery into the world that [E] you will live [A] in.
[F#m] It is my advice, Bongo, [E] that if you want to be happy, you get yourself [A] an ugly girl.
[D] Right here.
[E] Right [A] now.
_ [F#m] _
[D] I'm going to help [A] you out, Bongo, [E] Eddie.
London, [A] will you help me out, please?
[D] _ _ [A] _ _ [F#m] You know who you are.
Don't [D] be [E] ashamed of the looks you ain't got.
Some of my [A] best friends are [D] ugly.
[E] I want all of [F#m] _ us to come on [D] stage.
[E] Please help me out.
I got to [A] make this guy happy.
[D] This [E] guy's been [A] knocking on my door too late at [F#m] night [D] and I'm not getting any [E] sleep.
Bongo.

[F#m] _
Everything.
[D] _ _ [E] _ [F#] [E] Put a hold on [A] everything.
_ [Bm] _ _ [Em] _ [Fm] I asked for ugly [F#] girls up there.
I'm going to tell you something.
There [E] ain't no ugly girls on this stage.
[Am] I tell you this.
If you [Gm] call this ugly, I know why you're [C#m] in trouble now.
[F#] I'm going to tell you something.
[F#m] Ladies, I don't want to be [E] rude.
It is not in my nature to [A] be rude.
But you girls are far too [F#] lovely for what [E] I'm looking for.
[A] You will only break Bongo [F#m] Eddie's heart.
You will only break his [E] heart.
I'm telling you.
_ _ [A] _
_ [Bm] You're going [E] to have to go.

[D] That's an ugly [A] girl?
I'll tell you what.
_ [F#m] _
[D] Thank you ladies.
[E] Thank you, but no thank you.
You [A] girls will only bring misery [D] into Bongo Eddie's life.
[E] I am looking for [A] an ugly.
[F#m]
I [D] understand.
_ [E] There may be a language barrier [A] here with my New [D] York City accent and [A] all.
But I am looking for an ugly.
[F#m] That is not an [D] ugly girl.
That's a beautiful [E] girl.
Bongo, [A]
do you know any [D] ugly girls?
_ [E] [A] Do I know any ugly girls?
[F#m] You want one of my ugly [D] girls.
Right here.
[E] I'll get you an ugly [A] girl, Bongo.
You want one of my ugly [D] girls.
_ [E] I'll go get [A] an ugly girl for you, [F#m] Bongo.
I say you [D] wait right here.
