C
Ah London you're a lady
F G
Laid out before my eyes
C
Your golden heart is pulsing
Am F
Between your scarred up thighs
C
Your eyes are full of sadness
F G
Red busses skirt your hem
C
Your head-dress is a ring of lights
Am F
But I would not follow them
F
Your architects were madmen
C F G
Your builders sane but drunk
C
Among your faded jewels
Am F
Shine acid house and punk
C
You are a scarlet lady
F G
Your streets run red with blood
C
Oh my darling they have used you
Am F
And covered you with mud
C
It was deep down in your womb my love
F G
I drank my quart of sin
C
While chinamen played cards and draughts
Am F
And knocked back mickey finns
F
Your piss is like a river
C F G
Its scent is beer and gin
C
Your hell is in the summer
Am F
And you blossom in the spring
Am F
September is your purgatory
C Am/G#/Am
Christmas is your heaven
F C
And when the stinking streets of summer
F G
Are washed away by rain
C
At the dark end of a lonely street
Am F
That's where you lose your pain
C F C F
'Tis then your eyes light up my love
C
And sparkle once again
