   F                    A#       F
I liked to walk in the summer breeze
      F                   A#       C
Down Dalling Road by the dead old trees
      F                            A#
And drink with my friends in the Hammersmith
  F
Broadway
      F       A#            C          F
Dear dirty delightful old drunken old days

Then the winter came down and I loved it so dearly
The pubs and the bookies where you'd
spend all your time
And the old men that were singing when
the roses bloom again
And turn, like the leaves, to a new summertime

Chorus:
          F                      A#
Then the winter comes down and I can't stand
      F
the chill
      F                             A#      C
That comes to the streets around Christmas time
         F                           A#
And I'm buggered to damnation and I haven't got
   F
a penny
    F          C               A# F
To wander the dark streets of London

Every time that I look on the first day of summer
Takes me back to the place where they gave ECT
And the drugged-up psychos with death in their eyes
And how all of this really means nothing to me

Chorus

And every time that I look on the first
day of summer
Takes me back to the place where they gave ECT
And the drugged-up psychos with death in their eyes
And how all of this really means nothing to me

Chorus

To wander the dark streets of London
To wander the dark streets of London
