Little Comets - The Isles
------------------------------
Key of E
Ear-transcribed on ukulele by Neil Killer.
------------------------------
Alternately, you can change every second C#m chord to an F#m, as in
C#m - B - F#m - B. The (E-B) accent is played after every B chord, but I have
marked it where it is most strongly heard.
------------------------------
INTRO:
C#m - B - C#m - B
VERSE 1:
C#m B (E-B)
Economic downturn you can get a job
C#mApologetic parents you can get a job B
C#m B (E-B)
Sometimes I'm feeling just like Cupid with a bow and arrow
And I'm C#mfiring it at people who reBmain too shallow
CHORUS:
In the C#mB R I T I say British IsleBs
The C#mstreets are bleak, the Bkids are running wild
VERSE 2:
C#m B (E-B)
Terror on the pavement, panic in the street
C#mTension in the twisted silence of our sheets B
Sometimes I C#mlie awake for hours, feeling Bso synthetic
While my C#meyes are screaming out for something Bway more epic
CHORUS:
It's the C#mB R I T I say British IsleBs
The C#mstreets are bleak, the Bkids are running wild
C#mTerribly bold they try so hard
BNever look up to see the stars
In the C#mB R I T I say British IslBes
BRIDGE:
C#mLeeds screaming, Bristol torn
BBelfast and Hull forlorn
C#mOxford dreaming in denial
BWith all it's gleaming spires
C#mStoke bleeding, Glasgow yawns
BDundee and Cardiff mourn
C#mYork breaking, Sheffield cries
BAll fears are multiplied
CHORUS:
In the C#mB R I T I say British IsleBs
The C#mstreets are bleak, the Bkids are running wild
C#mTerribly bold they try so hard
BNever look up to see the stars
In the C#mB R I T I say British IslBes
OUTRO:
C#m - B - C#m - B
