    Grace Petrie

Having written some out for myself and seeing a request for more Grace Petrie 
here, I thought I'd put some up, so other's dont also have to spend time working 
them out. Big love yeah. This is basically correct I think, but she adds a few 
more changes in e.g. things like a (G C) or something, between the C and Am on the first line.

C (x32010@1)name="chord_320003@1">G Am (x02210@1)name="chord_133211@1">F x 2

London's burning, London's burning, fetch the engines there's none left,
London's burning, there's no learning here, it's just mindless pointless theft

London's burning, we're not for turning here, it's just thuggery and theft

And call them home......
