floating over a sea of vodka

separated from the rest

water pouring from her eyes

alcoholic and very bitter

you put your-self a- part
Am C
and i can't help until you start
Verse 2:
Em7 Am7
we knocked another couple back
G C
the dead soliders lined up on the table
Em7 Am7
still prepared for an attack
G C
they didn't know they'd been disabled
Em7 Am7
felt a wave a rush of blood
G C
you won't be happy til the bottle's broken
Em7 Am7
and you're out swimming in the flood
G C
you kept back kept unspoken
Repeat chorus

london bridge is safe and sound

no matter what you keep repeating

nothing's gonna drag me down
G C
to a death that's not worth cheating
