Gm               A#          D#                  A#
Seeking fame and fortune, we walk the streets of London 
D#              A#        Am  A    D
Looking for the crossroads e-very-where
Gm                    A#
Hold up in squats in tears bars
          D#                      A#
There's a slasher on the Holloway boulevard
D#                        A#     Am A D
Screaming monkey, monkey, monkey everywhere

[Chorus]
        A#        D#                 A#       
Like tin soldiers responding to the call
   D#             A#     D
To Camden we will crawl, one and all
A#   Gm          D#               A#
Ohhhh,   down to Thrash and Lordy Lord
   D#          A#     D
By icons we're lured, one and all

Seeking fame and fortune, all they say's: come on then
     D#              A#           Am   A   D
I'll meet you in the shadows by Roche-ster square
    Gm                 A#
The deal was done, the trade was rough
D#                 A#
Dublins down for a dubble bluff
D#                      A#
Dipp your quill in your bleeding heart
       Am        A        D
Sign there and there and there

[Bridge] 
(Slow strumming pattern)
Gm              A#            D#                 A#
Oh they were as boys, tell me what then did they know
D#          A#               A7             D
What was it they learned and where did they go
    Gm            A#           D#           A#
Now listen to the voice of the city morning air
          D#          A#               A7         D
If you’re looking for something that’s never been there

[Verse 3]

Looking for the crossroads everywhere

Hold on to your dreams, however bleak it seems
    D#            A#              Am   A   D
The world may not listen but the devil may care

[Chorus] 
          A#        D#         A#       
Like tin soldiers responding to the call
   D#             A#     D
To Camden we will crawl, one and all
