Bridge 

N.C.                     Cm 
But this is England on a winter's afternoon 
D7                               Gm 
  There is no sun there's just a pale and tiny moon 
Gm                             Cm 
And shivering sparrows on the smoking chimney tops 
D7                                Gm        Gm/F     Eb D7 G 
 And all the children suffer from cold and 'flu  and ra-in drops
