INTRO: Chord diagramE MajorE
VERSE:
Chord diagramE MajorE -(MUTED/MUFFLED)
I came down from Newcastle town           Chord diagramE MajorE
To the part of the south coast that I love the most.
Chord diagramE MajorE -(MUTED/MUFFLED)
I was stretched out tight after a couple of nights     Chord diagramE MajorE
Going crazy in Glasgow, I think you all know how that goes.
Chord diagramA augmentedA
I needed some peace, somewhere to stand still,
Through the Cotswold hills down to Portland Bill,
     Chord diagramE MajorE
And to charge up my batteries for next weekend,
Where I'd be cruising through Cardiff and ending up in Southend.
  Chord diagramBB
So don't go stopping and putting down roots
     A-(MUTED/MUFFLED)            Chord diagramE MajorE
Or your shoes won't fit in your travelling boots.


VERSE:
Chord diagramE MajorE -(MUTED/MUFFLED)
I met a guy from Cornwall who'd never left the county    Chord diagramE MajorE
I told him about the big smoke, I don't think he believed me.
Chord diagramE MajorE -(MUTED/MUFFLED)
I told him about the scene along the south coast to Kent,        Chord diagramE MajorE
Across the estuary to East Anglia, and then I think he knew what I meant.
  Chord diagramA augmentedA
Chord diagramA majorA man is bored of life if he's bored of these islands,
All creation is here from Hythe to the Highlands.
 Chord diagramE MajorE
The Black Country witnessed my basest predations
And the road up to Hull is paved with wicked intentions.
  Chord diagramBB
So don't go stopping and putting down roots
     A-(MUTED/MUFFLED)            Chord diagramE MajorE
Or your shoes won't fit in your travelling boots.

BREAK: (PLAY RIFF OVER THESE WORDS)
All across the hills and valleys,
From the Chord diagramA augmentedA roads to the seas,
The suburbs lead up to the cities,
And that's where you'll find me.

VERSE:
  Chord diagramA augmentedA
Go mad in Manchester, wind down in Winchester,
Roaming the home counties, where the parties are free,
 Chord diagramE MajorE
Circling London like dirt round a storm drain and
Somewhere near Holborn's the heart of the beast.
 Chord diagramBB
Don't go stopping and putting down roots
     A-(MUTED/MUFFLED)            Chord diagramE MajorE
Or your shoes won't fit in your travelling boots.


OUTRO:
    Chord diagramE MajorE     Chord diagramA augmentedA    Chord diagramBB      Chord diagramE MajorE
Sweet Albion around me, everywhere I go,
    Chord diagramE MajorE     Chord diagramA augmentedA         Chord diagramBB      Chord diagramE MajorE
Sweet Albion surround me, you're everything I know.
    Chord diagramE MajorE     Chord diagramA augmentedA    Chord diagramBB      Chord diagramE MajorE
Sweet Albion around me, everywhere I go,
    Chord diagramE MajorE     Chord diagramA augmentedA         Chord diagramBB      Chord diagramE MajorE
Sweet Albion surround me, you're everything I know.
