[Intro]
Bm C 6x
[Verse]
Bm C
London calling to the faraway towns
Bm D
Now that war is declared and battle come down
Bm C
London calling to the underworld
Bm D
Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls
Bm C
London calling, now don't look to us
Bm D
Phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust
Bm C
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
Bm D
Except for the ring of that truncheon thing
[Chorus]
Bm D
The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Bm D
Meltdown expected the wheat is growing thin
Bm D
Engines stop running but I have no fear
Bm A~
Cuz London is drowning and I live by the river
[Verse]
Bm C
London calling to the imitation zone
Bm D
Forget it brother, you can got it alone
Bm C
London calling to the zombies of death
Bm D
Quit holding out and draw another breath
Bm C
London calling and I don't wanna shout
Bm D
But while we were talking I saw you noddin' out
Bm C
London calling, see we ain't got no highs
Bm D
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes
[Chorus]
Bm D
The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Bm D
Engines stop running the wheat is growing thin
Bm D
A nuclear error but I have no fear
Bm A~
Cuz London is drowning and I live by the river
