[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
