VERSE 1
-------
C Fmaj7
Down in Albion, they're black and blue
C G
But we don't talk about that
C Fmaj7
Are you from round here? How do you do?
C G
I'd like to talk about that...
C Fmaj7
Talk over, gin in teacups and leaves on the lawn
C G
Violence at bus stops, and a pale thin girl with eyes forlorn
C Fmaj7
More gin in teacups, and leaves on the lawn
C G
Violence in dole queues and a pale thin girl,
behind the checkout...
Chorus
-------
Fmaj7 C G
But if you're looking for a cheap sort set in false anticipation
Fmaj7 C G
I'll be waiting in the photo booth at the underground station
Fmaj7 C G
So come away, won't you come away, we could go to...
G
Deptford, Catford or Watford, Digberth, Mansfield
C
Anywhere in Albion...
Fmaj7 Dm Am G C
Anywhere in Albion... Anywhere in Albion...

Chorus
-------
Fmaj7 C G
But if you're looking for a cheap sort all glint with perspiration
Fmaj7 C G
There's a four mile queue outside the disused powerstation

So come away, o say you'll come away and go to...
G
Satsworth, Senford, Weovil, Woomoyle, NEW-CAST-LE
Fmaj7 C G
But if you're looking for a cheap tart don't glint with perspiration
Fmaj7 C G
There's a five mile queue outside the disused powerstation
Fmaj7 C G
Now come away, won't you come away we'll go to...
