🎸 Intro: C F x2 C F C Here's one more sermon I'll sing to the choir C F C This town would be better if it were on fire C F C From the Lancaster Gate down to the Ann Boleyn's grave C F C Use the tabloids for kindling set this town ablaze C F C And the cabbies would curse and the honkers would cry C F C And the rest would just grumble til their turn to die C F C And the fish and chips vendors would be fuel for the fire C F C And I'd watch the sun set on the British Empire
🎸 Chorus: F And the London I know is a half a stones throw C From the cruel world around me and the cold world below F And the London I know is no better than I C G F Great Britain, good riddance, goodbye C G F Great Britain, good riddance, goodbye C F x2 C F C And the bobbies would curse and the cabbies would crash C F C And the rest would just grumble til they turned to ash C F C And the fish and chips vendors would run for their lives C F C Tea time would come and the cups would run dry 🎸 Chorus: F And the London I know is a half a stones throw C From the cruel world around me and the cold world below F And the London I know is no better than I C G F Great Britain, good riddance, goodbye C G F Great Britain, good riddance, goodbye C F x2
