Here's a slow, slow death by Los Campesinos!
I could say; only strum once for the verse chords, but that would be boring. Do what you want and have fun.
[Verse 1]
FWe felt a chill from the breeze move in from the east, London pat its own back
CThose with the means for the megaphone will always provide us the soundtrack
FI started to diarise the coming of flies when gloom is descending
CSo when it's back round again I know it's a false start and not an ending
FSome days I struggle to move in elephant shoes, unwilling commuter
CAnxiety in my chest, heart under duress, taps out of sharpshooter
FPreoccupied now for days, by nostalgia waves, I hated the first time
CA gambler's fallacy: The more I repeat, I won't be the punchline
[Bridge]
FYou
GOn a lilo
Are an Amisland
Of the CpacificEm  
And then Fme, me, me
I am Gface down
In a Ampuddle
On the Chigh Estreet
[Chorus]
FI got your initials Cinside a heart taAmttoo
We two in vermillion, Cwe two a Glovers' coup
FI got your initials Cinside a heart tatAmtoo
We two in vermillion, Cwe two a Glovers' coup
FI know little, but I Cpromise:
There's a Amslow, sGlow deFath Emif you Dmwant it
Fif you want it
[Verse 2]
FIn time I will have to lie, these memories are mine, not in fact my father's
CA schoolboy hero replaced, domestic disgrace, a sad scak, a martyr
FWe here are common as dirt, three lions on our shirt, with high expectations
CAbsolve this land of a Queen who feasts while we wean a small, hopeless nation
[Bridge]
FYou
GOn a lilo
Are an Amisland
Of the CpacificEm  
And then Fme, me, me
I am Gface down
In a Ampuddle
On the Chigh Estreet
[Chorus]
FI got your initials Cinside a heart taAmttoo
We two in vermillion, Cwe two a Glovers' coup
FI got your initials Cinside a heart tatAmtoo
We two in vermillion, Cwe two a Glovers' coup

There's a Amslow, sGlow deFath Emif you Dmwant it
FYeah, I want it

Here's a slow, slow death by Los Campesinos!

I could say; only strum once for the verse chords, but that would be boring. Do what you want and have fun.

[Verse 1]

We felt a chill from the breeze move in from the east, London pat its own back

Those with the means for the megaphone will always provide us the soundtrack

I started to diarise the coming of flies when gloom is descending

So when it's back round again I know it's a false start and not an ending

Some days I struggle to move in elephant shoes, unwilling commuter

Anxiety in my chest, heart under duress, taps out of sharpshooter

Preoccupied now for days, by nostalgia waves, I hated the first time

A gambler's fallacy: The more I repeat, I won't be the punchline

[Bridge]

You

On a lilo

Are an island

C Em

Of the pacific

And then me, me, me

I am face down

In a puddle

C E

On the high street

[Chorus]

F C Am

I got your initials inside a heart tattoo

C G

We two in vermillion, we two a lovers' coup

F C Am

I got your initials inside a heart tattoo

C G

We two in vermillion, we two a lovers' coup

F C

I know little, but I promise:

Am G F Em Dm

There's a slow, slow death if you want it

if you want it

[Verse 2]

In time I will have to lie, these memories are mine, not in fact my father's

A schoolboy hero replaced, domestic disgrace, a sad scak, a martyr

We here are common as dirt, three lions on our shirt, with high expectations

Absolve this land of a Queen who feasts while we wean a small, hopeless nation

[Bridge]

You

On a lilo

Are an island

C Em

Of the pacific

And then me, me, me

I am face down

In a puddle

C E

On the high street

[Chorus]

F C Am

I got your initials inside a heart tattoo

C G

We two in vermillion, we two a lovers' coup

F C Am

I got your initials inside a heart tattoo

C G

We two in vermillion, we two a lovers' coup

F C

I know little, but I promise:

Am G F Em Dm

There's a slow, slow death if you want it

Yeah, I want it
