Small World chords by Madness

Intro:
Bass riff x4 then

F E D x2

Verse 1:

Dm
I sat and watched the crowds in London

Dm
I know each road by name

Dm
Today the streets are cold and empty

Dm
Cause no one likes the rain


D
I soon lost count of all the cars

F
That burned so bright outside the bars

D
Deserted streets and burning shells

F
Familiar shops I know so well

Verse 2:

Dm
Today the birds no longer twitter

Dm
The words don't make it true

Dm
When there's no line I'm up the junction

Dm
I can't be there with you


D
I've always got a magic line

F
That I tap into any time

D
I watch the world by day and night

F
It's very close but out of sight


Chorus:

E
Small World

    D
Spent together
     C


     B
Linked forever


Verse 3:

D
The words were out and spread like fires

F
From good to bad, habitual liars

D
The drama queens rejoice again

F
Until the next time, who knows when?

Solo:
Dm

Chorus 2:

E
We could be miles apart forever

But we are somehow here together

The world is always talking somewhere

And we can choose or not to be there
