Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: A

Difficulty: Novice

Intro:
A        F#m E A    E

Verse 1:
A
Let me set the scene, Saturday night
                    B          A
Alarm for the close ruining my hype
                                        E
I tell my mates, "Lads, excuse note for me"
                                      A
Come on summoner, the rabbi will be innocent
A
I said I spend enough of my life just waiting in line
                F#m                  E    A
And I won't let another split second go by
         F#m                  A
I take a stroll 'round London town
E
Just me on my own, see how it plays out
A
So I take to the streets, just me and my lonesome
                 F#m           E             A
30 Pound which I gave a tenner to a homeless man
A
An individual whose found it hard to formulate a plan
F#m         E
God knows I can relate to that, I can relate to that

Pre-Chorus:
               B                        F#m
And I'll carry on moving through London town
              B             A
Just cruising 'til the lights go down
                 B                        A     F#m
Yeah, I'll carry on moving through London town, yeah

Chorus:
A          B A                E        A
And I walk around on these city streets
            G#     A
With my headphones blaring
     C#      A          E
I barely got the ground beneath my feet
F#m    G#  A      C#          A
The city's acting out another play for me
            G#     A
And I think I will stay in my drunken haze
               E                                           B
I'll watch the show for free, I'll watch the show for free

Verse 2:
A
There's a lady in the street
                                     F#m
Asking people not to speak too loudly 'cause
B            A
All the lads are acting rowdy
                     C#           E      F#m  G#
The clubs are closed and the crowds departed
    A
And there's cabs queuing up round the corner
           G#
Kebab shop lights, balloon man stories
A
It's one for five, three for a tenner
E                          F#m      G#
They're the perfect way to end your bender
A
Couple lads on the sidewalk arguing
               E              A
Alcohol fumes, plus adrenaline
A
It's a combination that will never win
E
First come police, then the ambulance
E
Said first come police, then the ambulance

Pre-Chorus:
         B                              F#m
And I'll carry on moving through London town
     B                        A
Just cruising 'til the lights go down
      B                                   A
Yeah, I'll carry on moving through London town, yeah

Chorus:
           G# C#           E    A
And I walk around on these city streets
        B          A
With my headphones blaring
     C#                 E
I barely got the ground beneath my feet
        B  A                       C#  A
The city's acting out another play for me
            G#     A
And I think I will stay in my drunken haze
           E                                                C
I'll watch the show for free, I'll watch the show for free

Bridge:
           G         D                E
'Cause sometimes you see a world that you have never seen
    G                  A        E                    C
The good, the bad, the ugly and somewhere in between
                        D             E
Well, these nights will highlight the beauty you don't notice
                         D
In a world that's hardly coping
E
We just keep on hoping, we just keep on

Chorus:
G#      A      C#             A
Walking around these city streets
             G#     A
With our headphones blaring
                      E
Barely got the ground beneath our feet
    A   B  A          C#
The city's acting out another play for me
    A       G#     C#    A       C#
And I think I will stay in my drunken haze
           E                                          F#m   G#  A
I'll watch the show for free, I'll watch the show for free

Instrumental:
F#m  E  A

Outro:
                    F#m B   A
I'll watch the show for free

F#m  E  A

                    F#m B   A
I'll watch the show for free

F#m  E  A
F#m  G#  A
F#m  E  A
