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
[Interlude]
Dm F A7...........
Dm F A7 G...............
[Verse 1]
Dm FEngland is only ever grey or green
A7The girls glitter striding glorious and coatless in the rain
Dm F..I remember fallin' through these streets
A7Somewhat out of place, if not for the drunkenness
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm FIt makes my chest hurt to think of it
A7Not of regret, but of missing that
[Chorus]
Dm FCheerful oblivion...
A7 GCheerful oblivion...
[Verse 2]
Dm FIt was not all pain and pavement slick with rain
Am GAnd shinin' under lights from ****** clubs and doing ****** drugs
Dm F Am GAnd huggin' girls that smelled like Britney Spears and coconuts...
Dm FAnd with your mermaid hair and your teeth so sharp
Am GYou crawled from the sea to break that sailor's heart
Dm FYou only get one night up on the shore
Am GSo dance like you've never danced before
Dm FAnd the dance floor is filling up with blood
Am GBut, oh, Lord, you've never been so in love
[Chorus]
Dm F Am G.......Cheerful oblivion..
Dm FCheerful oblivion...
Am GCheerful oblivion...
[Bridge]
FAnd the mermaids, they come once a year
GThey climb the struts of Brighton Pier
AmThey come to drink, they come to dance
EmTo sacrifice a human heart
F GAnd the world is so much wilder than you think
AmYou haven't seen nothin' 'til you seen an English girl drink
[Chorus]
Dm F Am G.....Cheerful oblivion..
Dm FCheerful oblivion...
Am GCheerful oblivion...
Dm FCheerful oblivion...
Am GCheerful oblivion...
[Outro]
Dm F Am G...............
