[A] [E] [A]
[Am] [E] [A] [Am] [E] Will [A] you [E] take me across the [A] Channel, [C] London [G] Bridge is falling [B] down.
[E]
[A] Strange a woman tries to [Am] say, Oh [F] that a man [G] will try to drown.
[E]
[F] It's the rain that they [C] predicted, [Bm] it's the forecast [E] every [Am] time.
The [Dm] roses died because [C] you picked it, [B] I'm not even glad [E] that it's mine.
And [A] all over [G] the world
[F] strangers [E] talk only about [Am] the weather.
[G] [F] All over the world [B] it's the same, [E] it's [A] the [Am] same.
[C] [Em] And [A] the [C] world is [F] getting [Am] flatter, and [Dm] the [G] sky is falling [Abm] all [E] around.
[A] Oh [Am] and [E] nothing is [Am] the matter, [D] for I never [G] cry [Bm] in [E] town.
[D] And a love [G] like [Am] ours my dear, is [Dm] just a [Bm] legend [E] when [Am] it's down.
[B]
And I never [G] buy [C] [Am] umbrellas, [B] cause there's always [E] one around.
[A] Oh, [G] oh, [F]
strangers talk [E] only about the [Am] weather.
[C] [F] And all over the [B] world it's the [E] same, it's [Am] the same.
[E]
[Am] [E] [D] And you [F] know that [C] it's beginning, [Em]
[E] and you know that it's [Am] the end.
Once [Dm] again [G] we [C] are strangers, [B] as the fog goes [E] rolling in.
[A] And all [G] over the world [F]
strangers talk [E] only about [A] the weather.
[G] [Am] And all [F]
over the world [B] it's the [E] same, [C] it's [Am] the same.
[E]
[Am] [E] It's [A] the same.
