	  		Intro Dm  F  G  
        Dm  F  G 

Dm            F           G 
..I thought that I was hungry for love 
Dm        F           G 
..Maybe I'm just hungry for blood 
Dm                 G 
..Tear from a woman on the shore 
Am                       C 
..You prairie ghost on a cottage hall 
Dm                  G 
..Oh, the mermaids have sharp teeth 
Am                   C 
..Razor blades all in your feet 

( Dm  F  A7 ) 
( Dm  F  A7  G ) 

      Dm              F 
England is only ever grey or green 
               A7 
The girls glitter striding  

Glorious and coatless in the rain 
Dm                         F 
..I remember fallin' through these streets 
        A7 
Somewhat out of place, if not for the drunkenness 

        Dm              F 
It makes my chest hurt to think of it 
      A7 
Not of regret, but of missing that 

       Dm     F 
Cheerful oblivion 
      A7     G 
Cheerful oblivion 

           Dm                 F 
It was not all pain and pavement slick with rain 
            Am                    G 
And shinin' under lights from shitty clubs and doing shitty drugs 
       Dm                            F     Am  G 
And huggin' girls that smelled like Britney Spears and coconuts 
         Dm             F 
And with your mermaid hair and your teeth so sharp 
             Am            G 
You crawled from the sea to break that sailor's heart 
     Dm                 F 
You only get one night up on the shore 
     Am                 G 
So dance like you've never danced before 
      Dm                       F 
And the dance floor is filling up with blood 
      Am                    G 
But, oh, Lord, you've never been so in love 

Dm      F        Am     G 
.......Cheerful oblivion 
      Dm     F 
Cheerful oblivion 
       Am     G 
Cheerful oblivion 

      F 
And the mermaids, they come once a year 
   G 
They climb the struts of Brighton Pier 
   Am 
They come to drink, they come to dance 
   Em 
To sacrifice a human heart 
      F                   G 
And the world is so much wilder than you think 
  Am 
You haven't seen nothin' 'til you seen an English girl drink 

Dm    F        Am     G 
.....Cheerful oblivion 
      Dm     F 
Cheerful oblivion 
       Am     G 
Cheerful oblivion 
      Dm     F 
Cheerful oblivion 
       Am     G 
Cheerful oblivion 

Final Dm  F  Am  G 
        Dm  F  Am  G
