Am  C    F    C
Goddamn' Europeans!
Am       C       F        C
Take me back to beautiful England
Am      C         F     C      Am   C  F        C
& the grey, damp filthiness of ages & battered books &

C    F       C               F
fog rolling down behind the mountains,
C        F         C             F
on the graveyards, and dead sea-captains.

Chorus:
Am      C      F                 C
Let me walk through the stinking alleys
Am      C         F      C
to the music of drunken beatings,
Am         C     F       C         Am   C
past the Thames River, glistening like gold
 F                G
hastily sold for nothing. Nothing.

G             F                 Am
Let me watch night fall on the river,
G                     F       Am
the moon rise up and turn to silver,
G               F         Am
the sky move, the ocean shimmer,
G                     F
the hedge shake, the last living rose
Am    C F C
quiver.
