This Is A Low

by Blur

(in E mixolydian)

E     Bm         A              C#m
And into the sea goes pretty England and me
C                Bm         E
Round the Bay of Biscay and back for tea

Hit traffic on the Dogger Bank; up the Thames to find a taxi rank
Sail on by with the tide and go to sleep
(and the radio says...)

    Chorus:
    E         D   E            Am   D   E
    This is a low but it won't hurt you
    E           D     E          Am    D
    When you're alone it will be there with you
        C               Bm      E
        Finding ways to stay so low

Up the Tyne, Forth and Cromarty there's a low in the high forties
And saturdays locked away on the pier; not fast enough, dear

And on the Malin Head, Blackpool looks blue and red
And the queen, she's gone round the bend; jumped off Lands End
(and the radio says...)

    [Chorus]

        Finding ways to stay so low

[2 x Instrumental Verse]

    [2 x Chorus]

        Finding ways to stay so low
