                Em                 (F#) G
        More convenient than a Tesco Express
                 D                          Csus2
        Close to windsor but the properties less
                     Em              (F#) G
        It keeps the businesses of Britain great
                 D                         Csus2
        Its got Europe's biggest trading estate
                        Em          (F#) G
        It doesn't matter where your from
                  D                Csus2
        You wanna work, then come along
            Em                 (F#) G
        The stations just got a new floor
                  D                Csus2
        and the motorway runs by your door

C       (B)             Am7               G              D
        And you know just where your heading
                        C            (B)   Am7   G    D
        Its equidistant 'tween London and Reading

           Am7     G          D
        Oh slough, my kind of town

        To the west you've got Taplow and Bray
                       D                  Csus2
        You've got Hillingdon the other way
               Em                    (F#) G
        Its a brilliant place to live and work
                      D                       Csus2
        It was in bucks now officially its berks
              Em                   (F#) G
        Don't listen to what the critics say
                    D                    Csus2
        Like its boring soulless and grey 
                    Em                (F#) G
        See for yourself, what you waiting for
                         D                  Csus2

        Am7        G         D
