[A] [G] [A] I was sipping on a whiskey when I got the call, yeah, my friend Lex was lying in [F] the
hospital, [Bm] she'd been pretty sick [E] for about half a year, but it seemed like this time
the end was [A] drawing near, so I dropped my plans and jumped the next London [F#m] train, I
found her [A] laid up and in a lot of pain, [B] her boys met mine and then I [E] understood that her
weather forecast wasn't looking too good, so [D] satisfying the story, so I little while
[F#m] tried to [Am] raise her mood and tried to raise her smile, but she silenced all my [Bm] ramblings
with the shake of her [E] head, drew me close to listen, this is what she said [A] now, you
live to [F#m] dance another [Bm] day, but now you'll have [E] to dance for the two of [A] us, so stop looking
[F#m] so damn [Bm]
depressed, sing with all your [D] heart, [E] the queen is dead, [A] yeah, she told me she was
sicker for the hospital, food of doctors, distant relatives, draining her blood, she
[B] said, I know I'm dying but I'm not finished just yet, [E] yeah, I'm dying for a drink and
[A] for a cigarette, so we hatched a plan to [E] book ourselves a cheap hotel, the centre of the
city and [A] to raise some money, [Bm]
waste all the clubs and [E] else, just obviously, then we'll
be good [A] and done, you live to [F#m] dance [Bm] another day, but now you'll have [E] to dance for the
two of us, [A] so stop looking [F#m] so damn [Bm] depressed, sing with all your [D] heart, [E] the queen is [D] dead,
yeah, South London's not the same [A] anymore, [D]
the queen is dead, [Bm] and the last [D] of the greats
has [A] finally gone to [E] bed, well [A] I was working on some words when Sarah called me up, she
said that Lex had gone to sleep and wasn't waking [F#m] up, [Bm] and even though I knew that there
was nothing to be [E] done, I felt bad for not being there, and now while she was [A] gone, so
tried to think what Lex would want me to do, at times like [F#m] this when I was feeling blue,
so gathered [Bm] up some friends to spread the sad, sad news, and [E] we headed to the city for
a drink or two, and we [A] sang, we live to [F#m]
dance another [Bm]
day, but now we have to [E] dance for
the two of us, [A] so stop looking [F#m] so damn [Bm] depressed, sing with all our [D] hearts,
[E] long live the queen.
