[Verso 1 2x]
F
VERSE
Bb
Good taste at times I've sometimes lacked
Ab/Bb Eb
I won't deny the truth
Bb/D
I got dressed up as Donald Duck
F F/G F/A
Making up for my re - pressed youth
Bb
Disco balls and spandex pants
Ab/Bb Eb
On questionable friends
Bb/F F F/G F/Ab F/A Bb
Disco died but how the fog still rolled across the River Thames
VERSE
Bb
Snarling they just came along
Ab/Bb Eb
And cut us to the quick
Bb/D
Called us a bunch of dinosaurs
F F/G F/A
And gave us a load of sticks
Bb
Told us that the times was changing
Ab/Bb Eb
And all good things must end
Bb/F F F/G F/Ab F/A Bb
But I'm still here and the fog still rolls across the River Thames
CHORUS
Gm D/F#
Nelson's on his column
Bb/F C/E
Ravens are in the Tower

[Refrão]
Eb Bb/D
Big Ben never lost his voice
Am7 D7
Chimes on every hour
Gm D/F#
And the fog still rolls off the River Thames
Bb/F C/E
The forecast calls for rain
Eb Bb/D
London Bridge ain't falling down
D D/Eb D/E D/F# Gm
And some things never change

[Próxima Parte]
INSTRUMENTAL
  Bb  Dm7  Gm  Eb    F
VERSE
Bb
The black-faced boys were holding tight
Ab/Bb Eb
And Thatcher's in a noose
Bb/D
Hair got teased beyond belief
F F/G F/A
In the age of the golden goose
Bb
The new romantics claimed the throne
Ab/Bb Eb
And we were wondering when
Bb/F F F/G F/Ab F/A Bb
But they lost their crown and the fog still rolled across the River Thames
CHORUS
Gm D/F#
Nelson's on his column
Bb/F C/E
Ravens are in the Tower

[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
BRIDGE
Eb Bb/D
Big bold letters screaming out
D7 Gm
A scandal in the house
Eb Bb/D
Dogs without their vocal chords
D7 Gm
Careers going south
Eb F/Eb
What the eye can't see the eye invents
Bb/D Eb
The truth was meant to bend
Bb/D F F/G F/Ab F/A Bb
But nothing changed and the fog still rolled across the River Thames
INSTRUMENTAL (guitar solo)
Bb | Eb7 | Eb Bb/D | D7
CHORUS
Gm D/F#
Nelson's on his column
Bb/F C/E
Ravens are in the Tower

[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
OUTRO
