[Verse 1]
BbWhen everyone's Fgone, the quiet retEburns
Just passing tFhrough little hurricane
BbA melody Fcomes, it plays and it's gEbone
After the Fstorm everything is Ebstill
And there's no Fconversation
EbI'll talk to Fmyself if I have to
BbAnother high Fstreet, another hotEbel
Language is Fwrong, walking off beat
BbAnd after all Fthe pretty girls Ebleave
Who will be Fhere to amuse you so
CYou'll never be Gquite sure when to Fstop
How many Gmiles till the penny drops
CYou're taking me Gback
Your east block Fflat
How will my Gheart ever get that
[Bridge]
FThere's nothing Ghere
Just concrete Fshapes
I look to the Gleft and I tell you
[Chorus]
FEnglish Garchitecture
CIs far Aaway
FMaybe I'm Dmwaiting for a Bbbell to ring
A Gsymphony to Fplay
Take my Gshoes away from Cme
And I will Astay
FOr I could just Dmlie here and Bbfantasise
GI'm really somewhere Bbelse
[Verse 2]
BbAnother town Fanother high Ebstreet
Languages Froll walking off beat
BbAnd after all Fthe pretty girls Ebleave
Who will be Fhere to amuse you so
CWhen everyone's Ggone, the quiet reFturns
Just passing Gthrough little hurricane

After the Gstorm everything is still

[Verse 1]

Bb F Eb

When everyone's gone, the quiet returns

Just passing through little hurricane

Bb F Eb

A melody comes, it plays and it's gone

F Eb

After the storm everything is still

And there's no conversation

Eb F

I'll talk to myself if I have to

Bb F Eb

Another high street, another hotel

Language is wrong, walking off beat

Bb F Eb

And after all the pretty girls leave

Who will be here to amuse you so

C G F

You'll never be quite sure when to stop

How many miles till the penny drops

C G

You're taking me back

Your east block flat

How will my heart ever get that

[Bridge]

F G

There's nothing here

Just concrete shapes

I look to the left and I tell you

[Chorus]

F G

English architecture

C A

Is far away

F Dm Bb

Maybe I'm waiting for a bell to ring

G F

A symphony to play

G C

Take my shoes away from me

And I will stay

F Dm Bb

Or I could just lie here and fantasise

G Bb

I'm really somewhere else

[Verse 2]

Bb F Eb

Another town another high street

Languages roll walking off beat

Bb F Eb

And after all the pretty girls leave

Who will be here to amuse you so

C G F

When everyone's gone, the quiet returns

Just passing through little hurricane

C G F

A melody comes, it plays and it's gone

After the storm everything is still

[Bridge]

F G

And there's no conversation

F G

I'll talk to myself if I have to

Now

[Chorus]

F G

And English architecture

C A

Is far away

F Dm Bb

Maybe I'm waiting for a bell to ring

G F

A symphony to play

G C

Take my shoes away from me

And I will stay

F Dm Bb

Or I could just lie here and fantasise

That nothing's gonna change

[Outro]
