Let England Shake

PJ Harvey

Em
The West's asleep. Let England shake,
Em
weighted down with silent dead.
Am         Gm    D
I fear our blood won't rise again     
Em
rise again

Em
England's dancing days are done.
Em
Another day, Bobby, for you to come home
Am            Gm D
Come and tell me indifference 
Em
Won won won

Gm               D  D                A  
Smile, smile Bobby, with your lovely mouth.
Gm               D     D            A  
Pack up your troubles, let's head out
Gm             D   D                A  
to the fountain of death & splash about, 
Gm                         
swim back forth & laugh out loud,

Em

Em
until the day is ending,
Em
And the birds are silent 
Am        Gm        D
And the insects are courting
D                                                   
by the shores heavy stones are    
Em
falling.

Gm               D  D                A  
Smile, smile Bobby, with your lovely mouth.
Gm               D     D            A  
Pack up your troubles, let's head out
Gm             D   D                A  
to the fountain of death & splash about, 
Gm                         
swim back  forth & laugh out loud,
