[Intro]
Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm                Em
Take a look round lively old London
Bm                F#m
Buzzing crowds we sweat and we revel
Em                     F#m
Red-cheeked shouts and songs
                      Bm          A
In the flicker of the gaslight
Bm            Em
Eager Blighty bursts from the cobblestones
Bm                F#m
Racing, climbing, blooming fertility
Em               F#m
Born from secret seeds
                          Bm
That are scattered in the night time
Bm                     F#m
London is fed upon the meat of the dead
        Em                         F#m
They're one shallow inch below the town
Em           Bm
Underground, underground
F#m             Bm
Leave them underground
[Verse 2]
Bm                  Em
Them that whispered dreams that only poisoned us
Bm                F#m
Them that told us lies of their bravery
Em                    F#m
Them that preached of progress
                  Bm            A
And put us in the poor house
Bm               Em
Them done horrid murder on bloody stages
Bm               F#m
Them that loudly crowed their humility
Em                   F#m
Lords and dames that sung
                    Bm
In the chapels on a Sunday
Bm                              F#m
All quiet now, their mouths are stopped up by mud
     Em                            F#m
They lie flung in rags and make no sound
Em           Bm
Underground, underground
F#m             Bm
Leave them underground
[Bridge]
D       A   Em   G   A   Bm       
D
Those who fought for something better
A                   Em
Those who taught by how they lived
G                A                 Bm
Loved ones taken long before their work was done
Em           Bm
Underground, underground
F#m             Bm
Leave them underground
Em           Bm
Underground, underground
F#m             Bm
Leave them underground
Em           Bm
Underground, underground
F#m             Bm
Leave them underground
Em           Bm
Underground, underground
F#m             Bm
Leave them underground
