[Verse 1]
CEarly in the morning where there Amused to be a slough
There's a Ctiny business lake, don't let the Amcattails fool you
Down in the Cbottom where Amnothing is born
CSleeps a silver dollar with your Amface thereon
[Pre-Chorus 1]
FWish I could trace the frowning compass D7of your mouth
Drop a Fmercury dime down a Roman drain and D7summon Mars
[Chorus 1]
CLast lion of Albion
They'll Amuse you for centuries to come
They'll Fsteal your patents for the sun
And D7you'll feel extinction
When you see your face on their Ammoney
[Break 1]
(x3) (on these three and the prior Am, alternate removing your finger off the D string)

[Verse 2]
CLate in the heavens that are Amalready bought
CSleeps a red planet in the Amgalaxy of a lion's thoughts
On the Csurface every tendon Amand intended machine
Is gonna Cbuckle, knuckle, kneel on a Amcarpet of lion's tongues
[Pre-Chorus 2]
FWish I could stand in the spray of the cliff of your D7sweet revenge
FOceans of naked serrated marble D7crushing in
[Break 2]
(x2) (on the last Am, alternate removing your finger off the D string for last two beats)

CLast lion of Albion
They'll Amuse you for centuries to come
They'll Fsteal your patents for the sun
And D7you'll feel extinction
CLast lion of Albion
They'll Amuse you for centuries to come
Your Fwound's the main road into London
D7You'll feel extinction
When you see your face on their Ammoney
[Break 3]

[Chorus 3]
CLast lion of Albion
The Dlast she-wolf to mother Rome
The Amlast virgin to wash ashore
You'll feel extinction
CLast lion of Albion
The Dlast of the Mohicans gone
The Amlast cedars of Lebanon
And you'll feel extinction
CLast lion of Albion
Last Dtiger of Tasmania
The Amlast she-wolf to suckle Rome
You'll feel extinction
When Cyou see your face
