[G] Take the National Express [Dm] when your life's in a mess
[Bm7] it will make you [Dm] smile
[G] All human life is here [Dm] from the feeble old [Bm] dear
To the screaming [Dm] child
[G] From the student who [Dm] knows that to have one of those
[Bm7] would be suicide [Dm]
[G] To the family [Dm] man manhandling the [Bm] pram 
With paternal [Dm] pride

And everybody sing [G7] ba ba baba ba ba baba
[C] ba ba baba ba ba baba ba ba baba [D7] ba ba ba alright [G]
[G7] we're going [C] where [D7] the air is [G] free

[G] On the National Express [Dm] there's a jolly hostess
[Bm7] selling crisps and [Dm] tea
[G] She'll provide you with [Dm] drinks and theatrical [Bm7] winks
For a sky-high [Dm] fee
[G] Miniskirts were in [Dm] style when she danced down the aisle
[Bm7] back in sixty [Dm] three
[G] But it's hard to get [Dm] by when your arse is the [Bm7] size
Of a small count-[Dm]-ry

And everybody sing [G7] ba ba baba ba ba baba
[C] ba ba baba ba ba baba ba ba baba [D7] ba ba ba alright [G]
[G] we're going [C] where the [D7] air is [Em] free [Em]//// [G]////
[C] Tomorrow bel-[G]-ongs to me..[Am] [Bm] [C] [D]

[D] When you're sad and feeling blue, [Daug] with nothing better to do,
[Bm7] Don't just don't sit there feeling stressed, [D7] take a trip
On (*) the National [G] Express.. [Dm] [Bm] [Dm]
On the National Express.. [G] [Dm] [Bm] [Dm]
