Intro: A F#m E A    E 

verse 1 
A 
Let me set the scene, Saturday night 
                    B          A 
Alarm for the close ruining my hype 
                                        E 
I tell my mates, "Lads, excuse note for me" 
                                      A 
Come on summoner, the rabbi will be innocent 
A 
I said I spend enough of my life just waiting in line 
                F#m                  E    A 
And I won't let another split second go by 
         F#m                  A 
I take a stroll 'round London town 
E 
Just me on my own, see how it plays out 
A 
So I take to the streets, just me and my lonesome 
                 F#m           E             A 
30 Pound which I gave a tenner to a homeless man 
A 
An individual whose found it hard to formulate a plan 
F#m         E 
God knows I can relate to that, I can relate to that 

Pre-Chorus 
               B                        F#m 
And I'll carry on moving through London town 
              B             A 
Just cruising 'til the lights go down 
                 B                        A     F#m 
Yeah, I'll carry on moving through London town, yeah 

A          B A                E        A 
And I walk around on these city streets 
            G#     A 
With my headphones blaring 
     C#      A          E 
I barely got the ground beneath my feet 
F#m    G#  A      C#          A 
The city's acting out another play for me 
            G#     A 
And I think I will stay in my drunken haze 
               E                                           B 
I'll watch the show for free, I'll watch the show for free 

verse 2 
A 
There's a lady in the street 
                                     F#m 
Asking people not to speak too loudly 'cause 
B            A 
All the lads are acting rowdy 
                     C#           E      F#m  G# 
The clubs are closed and the crowds departed 
    A 
And there's cabs queuing up round the corner 
           G# 
Kebab shop lights, balloon man stories 
A 
It's one for five, three for a tenner 
E                          F#m      G# 
They're the perfect way to end your bender 
A 
Couple lads on the sidewalk arguing 
               E              A 
Alcohol fumes, plus adrenaline 
A 
It's a combination that will never win 
E 
First come police, then the ambulance 
E 
Said first come police, then the ambulance 

Pre-Chorus 
         B                              F#m 
And I'll carry on moving through London town 
     B                        A 
Just cruising 'til the lights go down 
      B                                   A 
Yeah, I'll carry on moving through London town, yeah 

           G# C#           E    A 
And I walk around on these city streets 
        B          A 
With my headphones blaring 
     C#                 E 
I barely got the ground beneath my feet 
        B  A                       C#  A 
The city's acting out another play for me 
            G#     A 
And I think I will stay in my drunken haze 
           E                                                C 
I'll watch the show for free, I'll watch the show for free 

Bridge 
           G         D                E 
'Cause sometimes you see a world that you have never seen 
    G                  A        E                    C 
The good, the bad, the ugly and somewhere in between 
                        D             E 
Well, these nights will highlight the beauty you don't notice 
                         D 
In a world that's hardly coping 
E 
We just keep on hoping, we just keep on 

G#      A      C#             A 
Walking around these city streets 
             G#     A 
With our headphones blaring 
                      E 
Barely got the ground beneath our feet 
    A   B  A          C# 
The city's acting out another play for me 
    A       G#     C#    A       C# 
And I think I will stay in my drunken haze 
           E                                          F#m   G#  A 
I'll watch the show for free, I'll watch the show for free
