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        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         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     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      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.
