  			(intro A  D E (x9)) 
A                             D      E 
They come from underneath the stairs 
A                       D      E 
Into my room but no-one cares 
A                             D     E 
They're on the bus and on the train 
A                             D     E 
They're knocking on my window pane. 
A                       D     E 
Oh mother telephone the nurse 
A                          D     E 
Can't you see it's getting worse 
A                            D     E 
I close my eyes yet still it seems 
A               D      E 
Everybody in my dreams, 
      A            D  E           A             D  E,  A  D E (x5) 
Gubba look-A-likes          Gubba look-A-likes. 
A                          D    E 
I wake up screaming in the hall 
A                        D   E 
I didn't mean to wake at all 
A                           D    E 
I run and lock the bathroom door 
A                             D    E 
Turn on the taps and out they pour. 
A                            D     E 
Through all the villages and towns 
A                         D      E 
A thousand sandy coloured clowns 
A                             D      E 
I try and escape down private drives 
A                             D      E 
And then I reach the Reader's Wives. 
      A            D  E           A             D  E,(instr  A  D E (x9)) 
Gubba look-A-likes          Gubba look-A-likes. 
A                          D              E                    
In order to fling off this curse, I spend all day drinking in 
A                            D            E 
Diverse taverns, with smarmy acrobats and balding senators. 
A                                    D                     E 
But after a while they too adopt the likeness and begin to breed like 
          A  D E, A  D E 
town pigs. 
A                               D                   E 
As a drunken lump I fall into a state of blissful unconsciousness 
A                                 D         E 
But the moment is fleeting and I awake once more in despair 
A                       D              E     A  D E 
And in my final agonies believe myself lost. 
      A            D E            A            D E 
Gubba look-A-likes          Gubba look-A-likes. 
         A                             D               E 
In every film and every play, on every public right of way 
         A                               D                  E 
On every flag I see unfurled, on all the grounds in all the world 
              A              D           E 
The one-armed bandits in the bar, in the back of every car 
         A                         D           E 
And even on my dying day they'll refuse to go away 
       A                                D                  E 
When I walk towards the light something somewhere won't be right 
             A                                 D          E 
And what was once my Uncle Keith says there'll never be relief 
             A                           D   E 
And we'll go on and on and on and on and on. 
      A            D E            A            D E,   A  D Eto fade)
