These chords are repeated as above all the way to the bridge.
Verse and Chorus:
- MI LA LAsus4
Like summer's death throes London's arms around me
The world ends in West End sirens screaming unseen
The river frozen and the lions asleep
Up on the Westway watching people as sheep
Play the chords once in between the verse and chorus
MI LA LAsus4It's a long way away from it all
In my corner I sometimes feel nothing at all
It's the best way when the snow starts to fall
Play the chords twice between the chorus and verse
- MI LA LAsus4
Confetti falling down the drains of your dreams
Life in the fast lane never quite what it seems
You're full-on baby with your full-on beams
Play the chords once again before the next chorus
MI LA LAsus4On an expressway through the heart of it all
In my corner I can walk cannot crawl
It's the best way when the snow starts to fall
Play the chords once more before the bridge

Repeat a few times, then sing over the same chords:
Like summer's death throes London armed surrounds me
I'm up EC1 rusted fountains drown me
This frozen river and these lions that breathe
On an expressway
Is this the best way
On the last time through, play a G major bar chord instead of the last B2 chord.
Outro:
This is exactly the same as the verse, but a half step up, so you use bar chords
on the first fret.
