[Verse]

     C                  C         F              C
Well Manchester you and me, we're free to be whatever we

  F                 C          Am               G
Decide but like the weather we never really know.

  C                  C         F                 C
I stand beneath your grey sky, sing until my throat's dry

    Am               C               G                C
And you will never ask why 'cause we both already know.

[Verse]

     C                  C        F              C
Well Manchester you and I, we're tangled like a fishing line,

F                 C              Am                G
Dangled from your city spire and hanging down below.

  C                  C            F                C
I stand beneath your doorways and listen to your stories.

       Am              C               G     C
You're struggling in more ways than one I suppose.

[Chorus]

Oh Manchester take me I'm yours for the keeping,

           G             G              C            C
Though the rain fills my shoes from the sky always leaking.

         F             F                Am             Am
You're a baby that's laughing, you're a widow that's weeping

      G               G
And I feel your heart beating tonight.

[Verse]

     C                C           F                  C
Well Manchester me and you, we're aging you know it's true,

     F            C               Am             G
With each passing year or two our shadows grow long.

    C             C               F                 C
The lines on my face are like the cracks in this place,

    Am                 C           G          C
But you'll still be standing long after I'm gone.

[Chorus]

So Manchester take me I'm yours for the keeping,

           G             G              C            C
Though the rain fills my shoes from the sky always leaking.

         F             F                Am             Am
You're a baby that's laughing, you're a widow that's weeping

      G               G              C              C
And I feel your heart beating tonight.

[Chorus]

   F           F           C            C
Oh Manchester take me I'll never stop asking,

            G          G            C             C
Though your answer is silent, it is honest and lasting.

          F*                          Am*
There's a beauty that's here and it's never caught basking

      G*                        C         C
And I feel your heart beating tonight.

  G               G              C        C
I feel your heart beating tonight.
  G               G              N.C.     C*
I feel your heart beating tonight.
