Verse
There were no bombs
G
There were no riots
Cmaj7
But I knew
Aadd11
This time's different
Cmaj7 C/B
So I hoarded black tea
Am7 G
And cat antibiotics
Cmaj7
And I called you:
Aadd11
"Is there anything
Cmaj7 C/B
I could bring home to
Am7 F D7
Cheer you up?"
[Verse]
Our street's
G
Unusually quiet
Cmaj7
And the birds too
Aadd11
Desert monuments
Cmaj7 C/B
In the Black Sea
Am7 G
And ice caps in the tropics
Cmaj7
But it's nothing new
Aadd11
We're all alone next to each other
Cmaj7 C/B Am7
And we always have been
F
Hey! Hey...
D7
Hey!!!!
[Instrumental]
G Cmaj7 Aadd11 Cmaj7 C/B Am7
G Cmaj7 Aadd11 Cmaj7 C/B Am7 F
D7
[Verse]
Spring breakers
G
Drove back from the Baltic
Cmaj7
And the national debt grew
Aadd11
And I got some weird advice
Cmaj7 C/B Am7 G
From our so - ber alcoholic neighbour
Cmaj7
He was wearing my old shoes
Aadd11
And he said, "It's the first warm Saturday
Cmaj7 C/B Am7
Write to an old friend
F
Then burn the letter
Dm
That'll kill the virus
N.C.
Then throw your words into the sun."
