Interlude: D   Bm   E   A

Verse 1:
   D
 I saw in my mind ferry lights through the mist
   Bm
 I kept calm and carried the weight of the rift
 E                                                A
 Pulled him in tighter each time he was drifting away
    D
 My spine split from carrying us up the hill
     Bm
 Wet through my clothes, weary bones caught the chill
   E                                                             A
 I stopped trying to make him laugh, stopped trying to drill the safe
          D
 Thinking, How much sad did you
Bm                   E               A
 Think I had, did you think I had in me? Oh, the tragedy

Chorus:
 D  Bm   E  A
 So long London
 D      Bm   E   A
 You'll find someone

Verse 2:
   D
 I didn't opt in to be your odd man out
   Bm
 I founded the club she's heard great things about
   E                                               A
 I left all I knew you left me at the house by the Heath
   D
 I stopped CPR, after all it's no use
     Bm
 The spirit was gone we would never come to
         E                                                 A
 And I'm pissed off you let me give you all that youth for free

Chorus:
 D  Bm    E  A
 So long, London
 D   Bm   E A
 Stitches undone
 D   Bm      E   A
 Two graves, one gun
 D    Bm   E   A
 I'll find someone

Bridge:
         F#m                                A
 And you say I abandoned the ship but I was going down with it
          E                          Bm
 My white knuckle dying grip holding tight to your quiet resentment
                     F#m
 And my friends said it isn't right to be scared
       A                          E
 Every day old love affair, every breath feels like rarest air
                 Bm
 When you're not sure if he wants to be there

Pre-Chorus:
F#m                     A                    E               Bm
 So how much sad did you think I had, did you think I had in me?
               F#m
 How much tragedy?
                     A                      E
 Just how low did you think I'd go 'fore I'd self implode?
Bm                       D
 'Fore I'd have to go be free?

Chorus:
     D
 You swore that you loved me, but where were the clues?
   Bm
 I died on the altar waiting for the proof
     E                                        A
 You sacrificed us to the gods of your bluest days
         D                       Bm
 And I'm just getting color back into my face
     E                        A
 I'm just mad as hell cause I loved this place for

Post-Chorus:
 D  Bm    E  A
 So long, London
 D   Bm E    A
 Had a  good run
   D Bm      E    A
 a moment of warm sun
     D   Bm  E   A
 But I'm not the one
 D  Bm    E  A
 So long, London
 D   Bm   E A
 Stitches undone
 D   Bm      E   A
 Two graves, one gun
 D      Bm   E   A
 You'll find someone
