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                    Bm                    E                  
 Thinking how much sad did you  think I had, did you think I had in me?
A
 Oh, the tragedy


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