London Lyrics

London (Genuine Piano Mix) - Pet Shop Boys
Pet Shop Boys
London (2002)
(Tennant/Lowe/Zippel)
From: "London" (Maxi) and "Disco 3"
Not - as the title may suggest - a remix, but a beautiful
alternate recording of the song, different chords and everything.

We came from the far North
/9sus4
Summered in Crimea
Deserted the armed forces
Had to disappear
Made it to the free West
/9sus4
On a chartered flight
So we could see what
We trained to fight
We were in London
"Let's do it - let's break the law"
We were in London
Tell it like it is
We were in London
Tell it like it is
We were in London
Looking for hard work
/9sus4
Or credit card fraud
What do you expect from us?
We come from abroad
To get ourselves a new job
/9sus4
On a building-site
They work you so hard
But we trained to fight
We were in London
"Let's do it - let's break the law"
We were in London
Tell it like it is
We were in London
"Let's do it - let's break the law"
We were in London
Tell it like it is

My father fought in Afghanistan
His widow's pension ain't worth a damn
My mother works and goes home to cry
I want to live before I die
We were in London
"Let's do it - let's break the law"
We were in London
Tell it like it is
We were in London
"Let's do it - let's break the law"
We were in London
Tell it like it is
Fmaj7 (freely)
Tell it like it is, tell it like it is
Fmaj7 (freely) C
We were in London, tell it like, tell it like it is
