Intro : G x2

Verse :

G Am
You're used to grey England Skies
Em
Cloudy days, colder nights
C
And your heart's not right

G Am
Thought you'd be quite happy there
Em
In that warm NewYork air
C
But your heart's not right

Pre-chorus :

Am (x2)
But if you sing along with me
G*
Do you think you cold ever smile
Again?

Am (x2)
If you sing this melody
G*
Do you think you could laugh again
My friend?
D
Just try for me...

Chorus : (x2)
G Am Em C
Sing Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

Verse : ( same as before )

Don't wait for England to chime
Not for your heart or mine
I know time is never kind

You miss your warm winter boots
Say the tea's not as good
But you'll be alright

Pre-chorus :

Everyone is going out in summer hats
and colured T-shirts now

Take a walk around the pask
I know it will be better soon somehow
Just try for me

Chorus :

Sing
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Bridge :

And I'll keep on waiting For you

Chorus :
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

End : C (strum it)
