PRETENDERS TO THE THRONE  

From: "Alessandro Ott" <alexott@ipsnet.it>


           G                             Bm7
Is it Cologne with its great cathedral,
    C                                      G/D  D
Milan with its glamour and its pace?
    G                                    Bm7
London with its river and its bridges,
    C                                        G/D  D      
Lisbon with its beauty and its grace?

   G                 Bm7                  C             G/D  D             
          
Funny looking buses, climb its pot-bellied hills,
          G          Bm7   C                       G/D  D          
and a solitary jogger times the time he kills

G                          Bm7                           
Do you know where I'm gonna go?
C                                             G/D                D
None of you have guessed, so none of you can know
  G                           Bm7
If you've been, that's not where I mean
            C                                            G/D              
D
It's got class and it's got excellence like you've never seen

G                      Bm7                         C                       
  G/D        D  
Your town is dragging me down, it's dragging me down down down
G                      Bm7                         C                       
  G/D        D     
Your town is dragging me down, it's dragging me down down down

SECOND PART IS AS THE FIRST ONE, PLUS:

  C                                          G                        D    
               
As I watch them drop the grain into your fish tank brain
  C                                                 D                      
      
How can you like this place when it never even rains?

Chorus
