Verse 1:
Am*                    F7*    
London calling to the faraway towns,
                             C            
Now that war is declared and battle come down.
Am*                   F7*   
London calling to the underworld,
                                  C 
Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls.
Am                  F7   
London calling, now don't look at us,
                                C 
All that phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust.
Am                     F7    
London calling, see we ain't got no swing,
                           C 
'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing. 


Chorus 1:
Am                     C
The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in,
Am                       C 
Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin.
F                    C 
A nuclear error, but I have no fear,
Am                     G 
London is drowning-and I live by the river.


Verse 2:
Am*                    F7*   
London calling to the imitation zone,
                        C 
Forget it, brother, an' go it alone.
Am*                     F7*    
London calling upon the zombies of death,
                     C 
Quit holding out and draw another breath.
Am*                  F7*    
London calling and I don't wanna shout,
                               C 
But when we were talking I saw you nodding out,
Am*                     F7*    
London calling, see we ain't got no highs,
                         C 
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes.


Chorus 2:
Am                     C
The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in,
Am                       C 
Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin.
F                    C 
A nuclear error, but I have no fear,
Am                     G 
London is drowning-and I live by the river.


Instrumental (with Lead Piano Accordion):

| Am* | F* |
| Am* | F* | (Wah, ah, ah-aha-hah!)


Chorus 3:
Am                     C
The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in,
Am                       C 
Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin.
F                    C 
A nuclear error, but I have no fear,
Am                     G 
London is drowning-and I live by the river.

Verse 3:
Am*                   F7*
London calling, yeah, I was there, too,
                                   C 
An' you know what they said? Well, some of it was true!
Am*                    F7*  
London calling at the top of the dial, 
Am                    F 
After all this, won't you give me a smile? 


Coda:
Am*             F7*    
London calling...
Am*             F7*   
London calling...
Am                      
'Ne-ver fe-lt s-o mu-ch a-l-i-v-e. (Fade)
