Verse 1

B
Here I am in Amsterdam
F#m
I like it here they speak my language
Em			A
Even though it's not my own
B
It's got BBC for comfort zone
    F#m				  Em        A
And best of all, it's got Marks & Spencers
Em		 A		   B
Equality for the masses never felt better


Chorus

C#m	   F#      Ebm		      G#
Some of my dreams, they may have come true
C#m	       F#		Bm7
But so have my nightmares which I can't get through


Verse 2

B
And now I've lost the power to speak
    F#m
And now I've lost the power to eat
Em			 A
Idle and out of touch in Europe
B
Nothing's gone and nothing's changed
F#m				 Em   A
All that was before will still remain
     Em		 A	     B
It's too late to learn a new currency


Chorus

C#m	   F#      Ebm		      G#
Some of my dreams, they may have come true
C#m	       F#		Bm7
But 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!
