This Is London

G    G/F#  
                     G                 G/F#                                                    G                    G/F#  
This is London, the place where you're a god or a disgrace
                                        G                                 G/F#                            G                                    G/F#  
The whole wide world at your feet to see the look upon your face
                     C                            G                                                            C                                         G  
And you watch the BBC and you think, "Well, what if that was me?"
                     C                    G                 C  
Such a promising life to waste.
          G                      G/F#                                                 G                                            G/F#  
You told me, "Just be brave. Remember all the gifts you gave.
                                G                                              G/F#  
And how you felt like you were saved,
                                     G                                                            G/F#  
Like you were singing from beyond the grave."
                     C                                              G                                            C                                      G  
And you said you'd wait for me until the day I could sing on key
                                     C                      G                         C  
"There's just something about your face."
                             C                                 G                                    D                                            C  
Then you'd call, I could feel your body fall down next to me,
                G                              D                 C            G                                 C                            G  
And I wanted us to be fast asleep, closer than anything to me,
             C                 G         C  
Like we were home again...
                          G                                    G/F#                      G                                            G/F#  
There was just no way to know what was real and what was show
                          G                                              G/F#                                            G                                      G/F#  
A future unfolding before my eyes, and a past that I could not let go
                                C                                 G  
And how the feeling is so deep
                                                     C                                      G  
when you're running down the London streets
                                  C                 G                 C  
Like there's nowhere left to go.
                          G                                    G/F#                         G                      G/F#  
Among the faceless dizzy whores, the unimaginable bores,
                        G                                              G/F#                      G                                         G/F#  
Evenings stumbling from the pub, mornings shivering on the floor
                        C                                         G                                                              C                                    G  
Then the careless way you say, "Yeah, we were just glad we got to play."
                                C            G              C  
When you're empty to the core.
                             C                                 G                      D                                                         C  
Then you'd call, I could feel your body fall down next to me,
                G                              D                 C              G                                      C                         G  
And I wanted us to be fast asleep,      closer than anything to me,
             C                 G         C  
Like we were home again.
                                                                          G  
I'm so tired of the rain.
                     G                         G/F#                                         G                                    G/F#  
This is London, the place where you get lost without a trace
                          G                         G/F#                         G                                      G/F#  
Among the beautiful remains of this shattered human race
                     C                                 G                                      C                                         G  
All the words that go unsaid, all the sacrifices of the dead,
                                  C                                      G                                              C                                         G  
"We'll fall quietly into the past or we'll just burn the streets instead"
                  C                                         G                                            C                                                                         G  
In the clamoring of the crowd, you think, "I'll just stay quiet, instead."
                     C                 G                              D                                                 C  
All the fallen dizzy angels crawling through the street,
             G                                      D                                    C  
The pleas of people weary on their feet,
  G                                                 C                                    G  
        And you're half a world away from me,
                  C              G                      C  
As the clouds drown the light.
                                                             G  
I wonder where you are tonight.
