You're standing on the only chair
                              G
And you're singing to the screens and the moving stairs
            Am                    F
All on your own in the arrivals

                     C
You heard it in the watchman's cry
                        G
And you saw it in the bleeding evening sky
                Am
You got a Swiss army in your pocket
                       F
'Cos here comes the blackout...!

F                                   G
Now the hooded snake controls your mind
                                     F
It stole your eye on the seventh of July
                                G
We've got to learn to love our neighbour
                                          F         C
Before our neighbours start scaring the love out of us

              C
Before they frighten the love out of us

                     C
In the story of the matchstick girl
                            G
She was freezing on the streets of Petersburg
           Am
She lit a match and found a warmer world
                      F
But here comes the blackout...!

F                                   G
Now the hooded snake controls your mind
                                      F
It stole your eye on the seventh of July
                                G
We've got to learn to love our neighbour
                                        F
Before our neighbours start scaring the love out
                                G
The hooded snake controls your mind
              G
It stole your eye
F                                   G
Now we've got to learn to love our neighbour
                                         F          C
before our neighbours start scaring the love out of us
F      C
Out of us
