D            G              D
I've set my heart on being good
G
Very friendly
D            G                  Em
And I will carve my heart of wood
A
Splendid, splendid

[Verse 2]
D           G                D
I'll ride a dragon made of jade
    G           D
And speak no evil
G                            Em
I think it's strange to be afraid
A
We're only people

[Refrain 1]
Em       Am        D
So hang low, hang low
A       B
And do no evil
Em      Am             D
Like aeroplanes on snow
A       B
We're only people
Em              Am             D
Make sure the tray tables are stowed
A       B              Em
To have here or to go?
                Am              Bm
And now the blossom fails to show
B7
For we are landing

[Verse 3]
D           G            D
On every lovely yellow night
G
With spousy piety
D               G              Em
I shall perform the ancient rite
A
With due sobriety
D               G        D
And each uncomplicated thing
G
Is never-ending
D                  G        Em
And every lovely song you sing
A
Is all-befriending

[Refrain 2]
Em        Am        D
So hang low, hang low
A           B
And see no evil
Em        Am        D
So hang low, hang low
A           B
And see no evil
Em         Am         D
Like aeroplanes on snow
A            B
We're only people
Em              Am             D
Make sure the tray tables are stowed
A                    B
To have here or to hold
Em              Am             Bm
And now the blossom falls so slow
                B7
It seems to glow

[Verse 5]
D           G          D
And I will catch a Eurostar
G
At Waterloo station
D            G            Em
And I will play my blue guitar
A
In desperation

[Refrain 3]
Em         Am       D
But hang low, hang low
A           B
And be no evil
Em          Am       D
Like aeroplanes on show
A               B
We're only people
Em              Am             D
Make sure the tray tables are stowed
A                   B
To have here or to go
Em              Am             Bm
And now the blossom falls so slow
B7
We're only people

[Refrain 4]
Em        Am        D
So hang low, hang low
A           B
And do no evil
Em         Am        D
Like aeroplanes on show
A          B
We are landing
Em              Am               D
Make sure the tray tables are stowed
A       B           Em
To have here or to go
                Am              Bm
And now the blossom seems to glow
B7
We're only people
