London Calling tab by Bruce Springsteen

Tabs

• Capo on 3rd

Here's Bruce's cover of London Calling in PA. His cover at London's Hard Rock
Calling festival will be uploaded once I get the solo figured out.

Everything relative to the capo.

Verses is Em, Fmaj, G+G

E minorEm       Fmaj
London calling to the faraway towns
G+G
Now that war is declared-and battle come down
E minorEm       Fmaj
London calling to the underworld
G+G
Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls
E minorEm       Fmaj
London calling, now don't look at us
G+G
All that phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust
E minorEm       Fmaj
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
G+G
'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing

CHORUS
E minorEm           G+G
The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
E minorEm          G+G
Engines stop running, the wheat is growing thin
E minorEm        G+G
A augmentedA nuclear error, but I have no fear
D MajorD
London is drowning-and I live by the river

E minorEm  Fmaj x2

E minorEm       Fmaj
London calling to the imitation zone
G+G
Forget it, brother, an' go it alone
E minorEm       Fmaj
London calling upon the zombies of death
G+G
Quit holding out-and draw another breath
E minorEm       Fmaj
London calling-and I don't wanna shout
G+G
But when we were talking-I saw you nodding out
E minorEm       Fmaj
London calling, see we ain't got no highs
G+G
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes

CHORUS

Solo: Em, Fmaj, G+G (It's really just rapid picking, but I wrote it differently)

London calling, I was there, too
E minorEm           Fmaj
An' you know what baby? Well, some of it was true!

London Calling
E minorEm
  I never felt so much a' like(repeat like and fade out)
