 The devil  moon took me through  the alley
 Down by the Kardomah  and the Centrale
 To the  Mews running through  the backstreets
 Where the  Blacks sold fire and  sleep
 The devil  moon took me out  of Soho
 Up to Camden  where the cold north winds blow
 Sucked  along by a winter shower
 To stand  beside your shining  tower
 This could  be our final  dance
 This could  be our very  last chance
 Just the sound  of your voice
 Wherever  I may be changes  everything
 And then the world's  right with me
 You're  my London  girl
 The  way that you walk
 You're  my london girl
 The  way that you talk
 You're  my london girl
 Just the  sound of your  voice
 And I ain't  got no choice
 The light was goinbg out, the moon was dying
 The night was turning to a fine Spring morning
 The dogs were barking and the kids were shouting
 The sun was splashing in a crystal fountain
 When the cold winds come to find you
 Blowing down from the top of the high rise
 I'll come and take you back down to Soho
 Away from all those mad men's eyes
 This could be our final dance
 This could be our very last chance
 And if you cut me
 Don't you think I feel
 Is this body made of clay
 Is this heart made of steel
 You're my London girl
 The way that you walk
 You're my London girl
 The way that you talk
 Just the sound of your voice
 I ain't got no choice

 This could be our final dance
 This could be our very last chance
 And if you cut me
 Don't you think I feel
 Is this body made of clay
 Is this heart made of steel
 You're my London girl
 The way that you walk
 You're my London girl
 The way that you talk
 Just the sound of your voice
 I ain't got no choice

The de[Gm]vil moon took me thr[Bb]ough the alley
Down by the Kar[F]domah and the Centrale
To the[Gm] Mews running throug[Bb]h the backstreets
Where [F]the Blacks sold fire a[C]nd sleep
The de[Gm]vil moon took me out[Bb] of Soho
Up to [F]Camden where the cold north winds blow
Sucked[Gm] along by a winter s[Bb]hower
To sta[F]nd beside your shining[C] tower

This c[Bb]ould be our fin[C]al da[F]nce [Bb]    [F]      [Bb]
This c[Bb]ould be our ver[C]y last cha[F]nce [Bb]    [F]      [Bb]
Just the so[Bb]und of your voice
Whe[Gm]rever I may be change[Bb]s everything
And then the wo[C]rld's right with me
You[F]'re my Lo[Bb]ndon g[F]irl
The[Bb] way that you w[F]alk
You[Bb]'re my london g[F]irl
The[Bb] way that you t[F]alk
You[Bb]'re my london g[F]irl
Just t[Bb]he sound of your[C] voice
And I [Bb]ain't got no ch[F]oice  [Bb]       [F]           [Bb]

The light was goinbg out, the moon was dying
The night was turning to a fine Spring morning

The sun was splashing in a crystal fountain
When the cold winds come to find you
Blowing down from the top of the high rise
I'll come and take you back down to Soho
Away from all those mad men's eyes

This could be our final dance
This could be our very last chance
And if you cut me
Don't you think I feel
Is this body made of clay
Is this heart made of steel
You're my London girl
The way that you walk
You're my London girl
The way that you talk
Just the sound of your voice
I ain't got no choice

Just the sound of your voice
