Everything relative to the capo.
Verses is Em, Fmaj, G
Em Fmaj
London calling to the faraway towns
G
Now that war is declared-and battle come down
Em Fmaj
London calling to the underworld
G
Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls
Em Fmaj
London calling, now don't look at us
G
All that phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust
Em Fmaj
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
G
'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing
CHORUS Em G The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in Em G Engines stop running, the wheat is growing thin Em G A nuclear error, but I have no fear D London is drowning-and I live by the river Em Fmaj x2 Em Fmaj London calling to the imitation zone G Forget it, brother, an' go it alone Em Fmaj London calling upon the zombies of death G Quit holding out-and draw another breath Em Fmaj London calling-and I don't wanna shout G But when we were talking-I saw you nodding out Em Fmaj London calling, see we ain't got no highs G Except for that one with the yellowy eyes CHORUS Solo: Em, Fmaj, G (It's really just rapid picking, but I wrote it differently) |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------7-7-7-7-7-7-9-9-9-9-7-7-7-7-9-9-9-9-12-12-9-9-| |-2-2-2-2-2-2-3-3-3-3-2-2-2-2-------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------------12-12-12-12-12-13-13-13-| |------------------------------7-7-7-7-9-9-9-9-7-7-7--------------------------| |-2-2-2-2-2-3-3-3-3-4-4-3-3-3-------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |-14-14-14-12-12-12-12-12-13-12-12-12-13-12-12-14-14-14-13-13-12-12-13-------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| Chorus Em Fmaj London calling, I was there, too Em Fmaj An' you know what baby?
