[C] [Em]
London calling [F] to the [Em] faraway towns, now war is declared [G] and battle's gone down.
[Em]
London calling [F] to the [Em] underworld, come out of the cupboard, [G] you boys and girls.
[Em]
London calling, [F] now don't look to us, phoney Beatlemania [G] has bitten the dust.
[Em]
London calling, [F] see we ain't got no swing, except for the rain [G] and the crunch of the day.
[E]
The ice is thawing, [G] the sun's zooming in,
[Em] meltdown expected, [G] the wheat is dripping,
[Em]
angels stop running, [G] but I have no [Em] fear, it's London exploding.
[D] I live [C#] by the river, [Em] London calling, [F] to the imitation zone, [G] forget it brother, you can go it alone.
[Em] London calling, [F] to the zombies of death, [Em] quit holding out [G] and draw another breath.
[Em] London calling, [F] and I don't want to [Em] shout, but while we were talking, [G]
I saw you nodding out.
[E] London calling, [F] see we ain't got no [Em] hide, except for that worm [G] with the yellowy [Em] eyes.
The ice is thawing, [G]
the sun's zooming in, [Em] angels stop running, [G]
the wheat is dripping, [Em] a nuclear error.
[G] But I have no fear, [Em] it's London exploding.
[D]
I live [C#] by the river.

[Em] Look at this!
[Em] London calling, [C] yes I was there too, [Em] and you know what they said, [C] well some of it was true.
[Em] London calling, at the top of the dial, and after all this, [C] won't you give me a [Em] smile?
London calling, [C]
[Em] [C]
[Em] I've never felt so much alike.
