Verse
There were no bombs
A
There were no riots
Dmaj7
But I knew
Aadd11
This time's different
Dmaj7 D/C#
So I hoarded black tea
Bm7 A
And cat antibiotics
Dmaj7
And I called you:
Aadd11
"Is there anything
Dmaj7 D/C#
I could bring home to
Bm7 G E7
Cheer you up?"
[Verse]
Our street's
A
Unusually quiet
Dmaj7
And the birds too
Aadd11
Desert monuments
Dmaj7 D/C#
In the Black Sea
Bm7 A
And ice caps in the tropics
Dmaj7
But it's nothing new
Aadd11
We're all alone next to each other
Dmaj7 D/C# Bm7
And we always have been
G
Hey! Hey...
E7
Hey!!!!
[Instrumental]

A Dmaj7 Aadd11 Dmaj7 D/C# Bm7 G
E7
[Verse]
Spring breakers
A
Drove back from the Baltic
Dmaj7
And the national debt grew
Aadd11
And I got some weird advice
Dmaj7 D/C# Bm7 A
From our so - ber alcoholic neighbour
Dmaj7
He was wearing my old shoes
Aadd11
And he said, "It's the first warm Saturday
Dmaj7 D/C# Bm7
Write to an old friend
G
Then burn the letter
Em
That'll kill the virus
N.C.
Then throw your words into the sun."
