Dear [G7]Sir or Madam, will you read my book?

It's based on a novel by a man named Lear[ ]
And I need a job so I want to be a paperback [C]writer
Paperback [G]↓wri-↓ter

It's a [G7]dirty story of a dirty man
And his clinging wife doesn't understand[ ]
His son is working for the Daily Mail[ ]
It's a steady job but he wants to be a paperback [C]writer

{c:verse 3}
[G7]It's a thousand pages, give or take a few
I'll be writing more in a week or two[ ]
I can make it longer if you like the style[ ]
I can change it 'round and I want to be a paperback [C]writer
Paperback [G]↓wri-↓ter
{c:verse 4}
If you [G7]really like it you can have the rights
It could make a million for you overnight[ ]
If you must return it you can send it here[ ]
But I need a break and I want to be a paperback [C]writer
