England

[Intro] D

[Primera Parte]

      D                 G     A
It is opening day and a brand new 
start
    D                              
The stones have been cleared around
     G     A
 the fisherman's hut
        D                     
And the air bites, then leaves 
        G     A               G  
almost invisible cuts on the skin
   A

  D                         G     
A lighthouse retired, but a new 
  A
one was hired
      D                          G
About twenty foot taller painted 
        A
in black and white
       D                    G    
Twenty million steps with a 
A                         G A
computer inside instead of him

[Estribillo]

     G   D    A             D   
Only one road sign, telling cars
    A    Bm
 to slow down
      G         A            D
And a long drop in the ocean
       G      D   A            D
Beware of the rip tide, broken 
         A     Bm
glass and train lines
       G            A             
It's a new day, and this is 
  D
England

[Segunda Parte]

            D                      
Next to the pub with the flag 
          G  A
that's workin' flexible hours

          D                     
There's a mismatch of carriages, 
           G        A
soil in a boat for some flowers
      D                           
Fairy lights on a building that's 
G         A                    G A
supplying us power from the sea
    D                       G     
Electricity lines flow like veins to
A
 the town
     D                         
In-between there is nothing but 
      G    A
grass and pebbles on the ground
       D                      G   
Do not enter the wild here if you 
        A                     G A
want to be found for the free

[Estribillo]

         G        D  A           
View the flame of sunrise cut in 
D       A   Bm
half by the sky
        G     A            D
And the empty of the desert
        G          D      A      
Team of birds that swerve by and 
     D       A    Bm
then land on the wires
       G            A             
It's a new day, and this is 
  D
England

[Puente]

          Em                      
When it's time to escape from the 
G
heavy of this
         D                     A
There is nothing like washing away
            Em                     
I find this country of mine get 
  G
some bad reputation
   D              A
Of being cold and grey
           Em                      
But on the coast of the south to 
  G
the east followed round
         D                 A
I find serenity I've never felt
          Em                       
There's a peace and a quiet in this
 G
 island of ours
              D                    
That can't be mirrored by anywhere 
A
else

[Tercera Parte]

         D                       
Homes protruding from stones with 
       G    A
their wood-coloured black
          D               G   
Scattered cars in a line, steam 
    G
risin' out the shack
    D                          G  
One door at the front and then 
  A                              G A
just glass at the back for the view

[Estribillo]

        G       D  A             
And the blue is so bright, you'll
      D          A    Bm
 need shades for your eyes
        G     A            D
And the cable to pull over
       G        D    A  
Take a walk and feel like, 
        D          A  Bm
everything will be fine
       G           A              D
It's a new day, and this is England
