[Verse 1]
Dm Dm
It was an ugly day a couple of years ago
G G
I was driving along listening to the radio

I was hoping that the weather would be pretty consumed
Bb A
When the DJ interrupted some reggae tunes
 
[Verse 2]
Dm Dm
He said: This just in, hot off the AP wire
G G
Down on the rocks, there's a bus on fire
Dm Dm
It musta missed a turn going round the bend
Bb A
Witnesses say it was going end over end
 
[Chorus]
G A A A G# G
It was a bus full of nuns holding babies
A A A G# G
A bus full of nuns holding babies
A A A G# G Dm
A bus full of nuns holding babies in their arms went off the cliff
 
[Verse 3]
Dm Dm
I must admit, I was a little distraught
G G
To hear of this wreck which fate have wrought
Dm Dm
But some morbid curiosity gripped into my mind
Bb A
And I headed for the coast and the road that winds
 
[Chorus]

It was a bus full of nuns holding babies

A bus full of nuns holding babies
A A A G# G Dm
A bus full of nuns holding babies in their arms went off the cliff
 
[Bridge]
G A
You're gonna read it in the papers
G A
See it on TV
G A
The worse it is the better
Bb A
The disaster in the street
 
[Verse 4]
Dm Dm
When I got to the scene, there were lights-a flashin
G G
There was stretchers all around, and wearing gauze was in fashion
Dm Dm
So I asked a reporter, who the victims were
Bb A
He spoke with a smile, and these were his words
 
[Chorus]

It was a bus full of nuns holding babies

A bus full of nuns holding babies

Good god! I screamed as I looked around
G G
What could be worse than nuns and babies smashing into the ground
Dm Dm
A reporter dried his eyes on his blood-stained sleeves
Bb A
And said the: Nuns were blind and the kids were refugees
 
[Chorus]
G A A A G# G
It was a bus full of nuns holding babies
A A A G# G
A bus full of nuns holding babies
A A A G# G Dm
A bus full of nuns holding babies in their arms went off the cliff
