G Am F G
G Am F G
Okay
[Verse 1]
Bb
I was fourteen, She was twelve
Ab
Father traveled, hers as well, Europa
Bb
Down the beaches, hand in hand
Twelfth of never on the sand,
Ab Bb
Then war took her away
Ab G
We swore a vow that day:
[Chorus 1]
Am
We'll be the Pirate Twins again, Europa
F G
Oh my country, Europa
Am
I'll stand beside you in the rain, Europa
F G
Ta république, Europa
[Verse 2]
Bb
Nine years after, Who'd I see
Ab
On the cover of a magazine? Europa
Bb
Buy her singles and see all her films
Paste her pictures on my windowsill
Ab Bb
But that's not quite the same - it isn't, is it?
Ab G
Europa, my old friend
[Chorus 2]
Am
We'll be the Pirate Twins again, Europa
F G
Oh my country (Oh my country), Europa
Am
I'll walk beside you in the rain, Europa
F G
Ta république, Europa
[Bridge]
Eb F
Blew in from the hoverport, She was back in London
Eb F Dm F
Pushed past the papermen, Calling her name
Eb F
She smiled for the cameras, As a bodyguard grabbed me
Eb F
Her eyes were gone forever as they drove her away
[Outro]
G Am
We'll be the Pirate Twins again, Europa
F G
Oh my country, Aaa Europa
Am
I'll walk beside you in the rain, Europa
F G
Ta république, Europa
Am
We'll be the Pirate Twins again, Europa
F G
Oh my country (Look at my country now)
Am
I'll stand beside you in the rain, Europa
F G
Ta république, Europa
Am
Down in some bar along the Seine, Europa
F G
Oh my country, Europa
Am
I'll walk beside you in the rain, Europa
F G
Ta république, Europa (fade)
