Melody 1 (3x)
G
Here a Gtower shinning bright
Once stood Cgleaming Din the night
Where Cnow there'Gs just the rubble
In the Dhole
Here the CpaddieGs and the frogs
Came to Cgamble on the Ddogs
Came to Ggamble on the Cdogs not long Dago
Oh the torn up ticket stubs
>From a hundred thousand mugs
Now washed away with dead dreams in the rain
And the car-parks going up
And they're pulling down the pubs
And its just another bloody rainy day
Melody 1 (3x)
-Verse Chords over Instrumental part-
Oh sweet city of my dreams
Of speed and skill and schemes
Like Atlantis you just disappeared from view
And the hare upon the wire
Has been burnt upon your pyre
Like the black dog that once raced
Out from trap two
