The Kilburn High

G
Many's the day I took for granted
Am                             Em
Breathing the air that silenced some
       Em
As the North Wind blew

With it's head of thunder
Am                                     G
Beating its breast with a war drenched song
G     Am               C
Bathe awhile, awash in slumber
G          Am      D
Cry what's left to sleep
          G            Am               C
Where you dream of the love you left forever
    G       Am       D
But pity no more nor grieve

Chorus:
              G           C
For we're the kings of it all
         Am          D
From the day we were born
              G            Am      D
Now we're the Kings of the Kilburn High
           G             C              Am
Sure we'll always take a drop and we'll never
        D
leave a sup
           G              Am          D
Your empty glass is but a tear filled eye
            C            D       Em<--(that Em is the same as the Intro Em)
We were the Kings of the Kilburn High

Verse 2:
G
Listen to the sound of dead men dying
Am                            Em
March as they flee but exiled bound
      Em
Their ship once sailed no longer anchors
    Am
For gone is the green
                   G
And their hallowed ground
Em       Am                  C
Toast to tears of times past glories
     G       Am          D
This ageless clock chime stalls
         G        Am                   C
Where to kiss the lips of that love forgotten
   G            Am          D
To fly where no others have soared

Chorus:
              G           C
For we're the kings of it all
         Am          D
From the day we were born
              G            Am      D
Now we're the Kings of the Kilburn High
           G             C              Am
Sure we'll always take a drop and we'll never
        D
leave a sup
           G              Am          D
Your empty glass is but a tear filled eye
            C            D       Em
We were the Kings of the Kilburn High
