verse 1 
             F 
London by Jetpack 
     C        G7 
It can be done 
                    F 
What we spend on fuel 
          C       G7 
We'll make on film 
            F 
From the ICA 
             C          G7 
To Abbey Road in seconds 
               F 
On high rooftops 
           C         G7 
We'll dance the Twist 

  F       C       F      G 
I spent August in London when 
    F        C      G 
The New Romantics reigned 
    F         C      F     G 
And though I was oblivious then 
   F     C        G 
My love has never waned 
    F         C     F     G 
My roots are New Romantic as 
     F        C        G 
Some critics have complained 

verse 2 
                F 
London by Jetpack 
        C     G7 
My verse novel 
                 F 
When teenagers fly 
        C       G7  
They change the sky 
                   F   C 
It's not the going up 
                    G7 
It's not the coming down 
                  F 
It's the zooming 'round 
    C          G7 
The speed, the sex 

       F     C     F     G 
When I am monarch of the world 
        F      C        G 
Weighed down by matters weighty 
     F        C      F   
I'll live in London once more 
G   F      C      G 
And decree it's 1980 
     F       C      F      G 
That all may dress as Pierrots 
    F        C          G 
And pirates, like their king 
    F        C       F 
And all will have jetpacks 
     G       F         C       G 
From club to club we'll go zooming 

Outro 
                       F 
At the club with no name 
           C     G7 
We'll dance again 
                F 
Vivienne Westwood 
     C       G7 
Will be my queen 
                   F 
There will be no army 
    C    G7  
Only the Blitz 
                   F    C 
It's not the going up 
                     G7 
It's not the coming down 
                F 
London by Jetpack 
     C             N.C. 
I'll write you yet
