Fashion crisis hits New York
A
I saw a blind man
D G
He was eating his fork
A
He said that's what you had
D G
To do to be cool
A
You eat your cutlery instead of your food
G A D
What a hippy diddly crazy world
G A D G A
What a hippy diddly crazy world
CHORUS
D F#m
Well fashion it moves on and on
G
While the things we've bought
A
Have been hardly worn
D F#m
And I still like my old three piece suite
G A
But it's in the shed and I've got no seat
D
Oh no no
G A D
What a hippy diddly crazy world
G A D G A
What a hippy diddly crazy world
D G
They say necklines to the waist
A D G
You change your body to keep up with the pace
A D G
The rich buy dearest cause they want to be sure
A D
The poor can't afford to be that insecure
G A D
What a hippy diddly crazy world
G A D G A
What a hippy diddly crazy world
CHORUS
D F#m

G A
But it's in the shed and I've got no seat
D
Oh no no
(solo played over the same chords as the chorus)
