Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
baby britain feels the best
G G C C
floating over a sea of vodka
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
separated from the rest
G G C C
fights problems with bigger problems
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
sees the ocean fall and rise
G G C C
counts the waves that somehow didn't hit her
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
water pouring from her eyes
G G C C
alcoholic and very bitter

Chorus:

Em Em Em/G Em/G Em/A Em/A Em/B Em/B C C
for someone half as smart
Em Em Em/G Em/G Em/A Em/A Em/B Em/B C C
you'd be a work of art
Em Em Em/G Em/G Em/A Em/A Em/B Em/B C C G/B G/B
you put your-self a- part
Am Am C C
and i can't help until you start

Verse 2:

Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
we knocked another couple back
G G C C
the dead soliders lined up on the table
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
still prepared for an attack
G G C C
they didn't know they'd been disabled
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
felt a wave a rush of blood
G G C C
you won't be happy til the bottle's broken
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
and you're out swimming in the flood
G G C C
you kept back kept unspoken

Repeat chorus

Bridge:

C C A/C# A/C#
you got a look in your eye
D D
when you're saying goodbye
B/D# B/D#
like you wanna say hi

Instrumental:

Em Em Em/G Em/G Em/A Em/A Em/B Em/B C C (3X)
G/B G/B Am Am C C

Verse 3:

Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
the light was on but it was dim
G G C C
revolver's been turned over
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
and now it's ready once again
G G C C
the radio was playing crimson and clover
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
london bridge is safe and sound
G G C C
no matter what you keep repeating
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
nothing's gonna drag me down
G G C C
to a death that's not worth cheating

Repeat chorus 2X
