A            G           D       E
I didn't want to be some satellite clown
      D           E               D                 E
So I went up to London 'cuase I heard it's falling down
            A         G         D      E
Found the Denis the Menace of Little Venice
         D             E         D           E
Still digging up the bones of Strummer and Jones

    F#m
Revolutionary day were sadly over
       A
And a cool profile down Ladbroke Grove
       D          E
Won't make it no more
           D              E
You could wake up in a doorway

   A         D      A           E
London's brilliant when it's raining
    A         E      D
Everybody's moaning and complaining
   A       E     D     A
London's dismal and divine
       D                 E
And I know one day, one day

It's going to be...

F#m
Mine eyes have seen the gory
  A
Faces of those bitter men
            D    E
And their bawdy talk
      A
And that's not all
F#m                            A
Every night before I close my eyes
                          D
I'd say a prayer to my desires

Hung up on the poster on the wall

Don't let me grow up to fail and fall
               E
If I must grow up at all

           A           G             D                  E
Well the night's got chilly and he swore he'd love me silly
          D              E            D            E
But he couldn't raise a spark in the dark in Hyde Park
        A          G         D                E
With a bite and a bark, he tried to make his mark
            D             E       D            E
Now he's getting fucked silly somewhere in Picadilly

   F#m
He said I could be a little Madam in Mayfair
          A
But I'd rather wakle up in a doorway somewhere
     D            E
`Cos in the long run
              D     E
I'll propably be someone

   A         D      A           E
London's brilliant when it's raining
    A         E      D
Everybody's moaning and complaining
   A       E     D     A
London's dismal and divine
       D                 E
And I know one day, one day

It's going to be...

  F                    D
London's brilliant
