[E] [Eb]
[G] Lancashire is sleeping as [D] a frail bronchitic moon climbs into [G] a sulphur [C] sky
Mums in bike bedrooms [D] are wheezing a tune, [G] a Lancashire lullaby
[C]
Father's in the bathroom [D] washing off all the muck [G] before going out on [C] the air
And stars are shimmering lovely in [D] the oil drips from his truck as [G] the Coleman's party hits the [C] trail
[Em] For a thousand years or more [B] such men have told the tale of [Em] how the little infant Christ [B] came
And [A] if the story somehow should reach this far and fail, guess who, [G] guess who is gonna blame?
Ah,
[C] the sound of neighbours' [D] tomcats as they permanently fight, [G] and the diesel fumes [C] that float by
If you hear some breaking [D] bottles echoing through the night, [G] it's a Lancashire [C] lullaby
