'Can you tell me where my coutry lies?'
Said the unifaun to his true love's eyes

    C#5                     G#5
'It lies with me' cried the queen of maybe
        C#5            A5             C#5  G#5 A5
For her merchandise he traded in his prize  
A5      B5                            E5
'Paper late' - cried a voice in the crowd, old man dies
                     B5                  C#5
The note he left was signed 'old father Thames', it seems he's
B5
drowned
C#5     A5       B5      C#5   G#5   A5
Selling England by the pound 
C#5         B5        A5                B5
Citizens of hope and glory, time goes by it's the time of
     E5
your life
E5
Easy now, sit you down,
        B5                              C#5           B5
Chewing through you wimpey dreams they eat without a sound
C#5        A5       B5      C#5   G#5  A5
disgesting England by the pound 
C#5  G#5  A5   C#5 G#5 A5

C#5                 G#5          A5
Young man says 'You are what you eat,
    C#5   G#5 A5
eat well' 
C#5               G#5          A5
Old man says 'You are what you wear,
     C#5   G#5  A5
wear well' 
C#5               G#5
You know what you are
    A5          C#5  G#5  A5
you don't give a damn 
C#5           G#5               A5       B5
Bursting your belt that is your home-made sham
B5
The captain leads his
E5              F#5          G#5
Dance right on through the night
C#5      F#5

F#5     C#5 F#5       C#5    F#5     C#5
Follow on till the grail sunset in the

Follow on till the gold is cold
E5       B5   E5        F#5 E5     B5
Dancing out with the moonlight knight
F#5             D5           E5     F#5  C#5
Knight soft the greenshield stamp and shout
C#5               G#5     A5        C#5    G#5  A5
There's a fat old lady outside the saloon 
C#5          G#5    A5              C#5    G#5  A5
Laying out a credit card she plays fortune 
C#5           G#5  A5              C#5   G#5  A5
The desk is uneven right from the start 
C#5          G#5       A5       B5
All of their hands are playing apart
B5
the captain leads his
E5             F#5           G#5
Dance right on through the night
C#5      F#5

I'll play the fool, we'll tease the dull ringing
G#5       A5         C#5        F#5
Round and round     round and round
F#5     C#5  F#5     C#5    F#5     C#5       D#5
Follow on, will a twist of the world we go
