[Intro]
Am  A#  6x


[Verse]
Am                    A#
London calling to the faraway towns
         Am                  C
Now that war is declared and battle come down
Am                    A#
London calling to the underworld
     Am                           C
Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls
Am                  A#
London calling, now don't look to us
Am                    C
Phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust
Am                     A#
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
Am                          C
Except for the ring of that truncheon thing

[Chorus]
    Am                     C
The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Am                    C
Meltdown expected the wheat is growing thin
Am                       C
Engines stop running but I have no fear
    Am                     G~
Cuz London is drowning and I live by the river


[Verse]
Am                    A#
London calling to the imitation zone
Am                         C
Forget it brother, you can got it alone
Am                    A#
London calling to the zombies of death
Am                   C
Quit holding out and draw another breath
Am                   A#
London calling and I don't wanna shout
    Am                      C
But while we were talking I saw you noddin' out
Am                     A#
London calling, see we ain't got no highs
  Am                         C
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes


[Chorus]
    Am                     C
The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Am                       C
Engines stop running the wheat is growing thin
  Am                  C
A nuclear error but I have no fear
    Am                     G~
Cuz London is drowning and I live by the river


[Interlude]
Am  A#  4x


[Solo]
Am  A#  4x


[Chorus]
    Am                     C
The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Am                       C
Engines stop running the wheat is growing thin
  Am                C
A nuclear error but I have no fear
    Am                     G~
Cuz London is drowning and I live by the river


[Interlude]
Am  A#  3x
Am      A#

Am                  A#
London calling, yes I was there too
    Am                            A#
An' you know what they said, well some of it was true!

London calling at the top of the dial

An' after all this, won't you give me a smile?

London calling
Am~
