Intro: E A E A, E A E A) 
 
E                     A  
Woke up this morning, found myself in bed  
   E                                  A  
My knowledge of the blues is somewhat nil  
    E                             A  
I'd dreamt about a love affair in far off Budapest  
    E                               A  
The sort of thing that sugars every pill  
(n.C.)                          E    A E A, E A E A  
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan.  
  E                         A  
I went dans la cuisine in a bilinguistic mood  
    E                                  A  
And Morphy Richards popped up with the goods  
E                               A  
I was feeling Hungary both this morning and last night  
            E                              A  
And with an appetite like that you see the woods  
(n.C.)                          E    A E A, E A E A  
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan.  
D                              G  
Is this the bit where we're supposed to make guitars collide?  
    D                          G  
And is this the bit where we release all that raw energy?  
    D                           G  
And is this the bit where we go crashing through those barriers?  
     D                            E A E A, E A E A  
Like what they do in music mags?  
(n.C)                           E    A  
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan.  
E                               A    E                               A
