          A
Well the rest of my life lay in front of me
                          F#m
I was pedalling down the road
        G
When I saw Nell Gwynne and her oranges
     A
And I'll have one of those

Chorus:
          D          E    D                   E
She said, Move over busker, don't bang your drum
D          E                      A
Move over busker, your time will come

Well I was hanging around for a miracle
Struggling with a rhyme
When I saw Mae West in a sweaty vest
And I said, I'll come up and see you sometime

Chorus:
She said, Move over busker, don't bang your drum
Move over busker, your time will come

Am                     Am 
You've got it coming, come on come on
 D                 Fmaj7
You've got it coming, coming to you
You've got it coming, come on come on
You've got it coming, coming to you

                D                           Bm
Well I've been waiting (waiting), but I'm impatient
            G                       A
No one can hold me back, I want to stay with
the action
             D                           Bm
But I won't get it (get it), my great illusion
             G                 A
Will vanish anyhow if I don't grab it now

            D
Well I was hacking my way through the undergrowth
                   Bm
Juggling with my pride
        C
When I saw Errol Flynn in a tiger skin
             D
And I said, You look satisfied
Well, he looked down at me from his motor home
                        Bm
And he gave me a dirty smile
    C
He said, Well, yes, I am but she's calling me
             D
Would you excuse us for a while

Chorus:
 G         A    G              A
Move over busker, your day is done
 G         A                   D
Move over busker, my time has come

I'm telling you to
Move over, busker (Come on, come on)
I'll bang my drum (Come on, come on)
Move over, busker
My time has come
(You've got it coming, coming to you)
Move over, busker (Come on, come on)
Your day is done (Come on, come on)
Move over, busker
My time has come
(You've got it coming, coming to you)
