Verse 1

BHere (x2444x@1)I am in Amsterdam
F#mI (244222@1)like it here they speak my language
Em (022000@1)	AEven (x02220@1)though it's not my own
BIt's (x2444x@1)got BBC for comfort zone
    F#m (244222@1)		  Em (022000@1)      AAnd (x02220@1)best of all, it's got Marks & Spencers
Em (022000@1) A (x02220@1)   BEquality (x2444x@1)for the masses never felt better


Chorus

C#m (x13321@4)  F# (244322@1)    Ebm (xx4342@1)      G#Some (xx1114@1)of my dreams, they may have come true
C#m (x13321@4)      F# (244322@1)Bm7But (x20202@1)so have my nightmares which I can't get through


Verse 2

BAnd (x2444x@1)now I've lost the power to speak
    F#mAnd (244222@1)now I've lost the power to eat
Em (022000@1)	 AIdle (x02220@1)and out of touch in Europe
BNothing's (x2444x@1)gone and nothing's changed
F#m (244222@1)		 Em (022000@1) AAll (x02220@1)that was before will still remain
     Em (022000@1) A (x02220@1)    BIt's (x2444x@1)too late to learn a new currency


Chorus

C#m (x13321@4)  F# (244322@1)    Ebm (xx4342@1)      G#Some (xx1114@1)of my dreams, they may have come true
C#m (x13321@4)      F# (244322@1)Bm7But (x20202@1)so have my nightmares which I can't get through



Great song, one of the Manics best.  It's a shame it's not more well known.  Please rate!
