Down To London Chords by Joe Jackson

[Bm] _ [E] _ [Bm] _ [E] _ [Bm] _ [E] _ [Bm] _ [E] _
[Bm] [E] Stop!
[Bm] [E] What's that [Bm] sound?
[E] It's the death [Bm] rattle of this [E] rusty old [Bm] town.
[E] Stop!
[Bm] [E] Listen [Bm] again.
[E] It's the sound of [Bm] laughter all [E] along the [C#m] town.
_ _ [B] Whoa!
[E] Hey!
[Bm] [E] What's my [Bm] line?
[E] Do I have to [Bm] stay here till the [E] end of [Bm] time?
[E] [Bm] I'm still [E] looking [Bm] bright.
[E] I want to [Bm] see life after [E] ten at [F#] night.
_ [C#m] So [D] if I ask [A] you where I [D] am, I'm [A] on the transit [D] van in a [A] squat on the Earl's [D] carpool.
[A] I'm gonna change your car into [D] gold.
[A] Down to [D] London, _ [A] down to [Bm] London, [F#m] gone down to [G] London to [Bm] be the [E] king.

[E] What's [Bm] [E] your [C#m] name? _ _ _
[B] [E] Stop!
[Bm] [E] What's that [Bm] sound?
[E] It's [Bm] the sticky [E] blackness swirling [Bm] around.
[E] [Bm] Can you [E] hear me back [Bm] there?
[E] Oh, if [Bm] [E] you [C#m] can.
_ Then [D] if you ask [A] me where they [D] are, I'm staying [A] tough in a Soho [D] bar.
Playing [A] guitars on the [G] underground.
[D] Gone down to [A] London, down to Chesapeake.
[G] _ [D] _ [A] Down to [D] London, _ [A] down to [F#m] London, gone down [G] to London to [Bm] be the [E] king.

[D] If I ask [A] you, should I cry or [D] laugh?
They can [A] see it in a king's cross [D]-staff.
But never [A] jacket against the [D] cold.
[A] I'm gonna change your car into [D] gold.
[A] Down to [D] London, _ [A] down to [Bm] London, [F#m] gone down [G] to London to [Bm] be the [E] king.
