London Calling
Chords v1

Intro: Em Em Em Em, F F F F (6x) (all downstrokes)  (bar chords cept chorus)

Em                                       F                                    G

London calling to the faraway towns Now war is declared, and battle come down

London calling to the underworld Come out of the cupboard, you boys and girls

London calling, now don't look to us Phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust

London calling, see we ain't got no swing 'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing

Em                                                G

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in

Meltdown expected, the wheat is growing thin

Engines stop running, but I have no fear

Em                                                             D (let ring)

'Cause London is drowning, and I live by the river

London calling to the imitation zone. Forget it, brother, you can go it alone

London calling to the zombies of death. Quit holding out, and draw another breath

London calling, and I don't wanna shout. But while we were talking, I saw you nodding out

London calling, see we ain't got no high. Except for that one with the yellowy eyes

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in

Engines stop running, the wheat is growing thin

A nuclear error, but I have no fear

'Cause London is drowning, and I live by the river

Verse Instrumental

Chorus 2

4x Em Em Em Em, F F F F Now get this

Em                                    F

London calling, yes, I was there, too

An' you know what they said? Well, some of it was true!

London calling at the top of the dial

After all this, won't you give me a smile?

London calling

Em                   F

Em

I never felt so much alike [fading] alike alike alike
