Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

It's funny how the smile in your eyes

Is slowly fading with the last days in July

The year is drowning like the calendar grows thin

You'll sail away again with your back against the wind

Chorus

... sim.

And when the cold wind blows, you're gone

And I will hold my head again

But you can't run from the truth

Of oooh the London rain

Please send me beaches when my world is cold and weak

And press me flowers in the pages of the diaries you keep

It still won't fill the spot beside me in the bed where you sleep

As the calendar repeats

And when the cold wind blows, you're gone

And I will hold my head again

But you can't run from the truth

Of oooh the London rain

Yeah, just say it like you mean it

A last look of summer on your face

I swear I believe that

That someday you will stay

I can't take or leave it

I'll take it anywhere with you

I'll take it anywhere
