[Verse 1]
D D/C#
Whenever I'm in the tightest corner
G/B D/A
Whenever I feel forlorn
G D/F#
I think of the isle where I was born
G E/G# A F#/A#
And the duty to which I've sworn
Bm BmM7
But I woke up in a nightmare
Bm7 Bm/G#
With a Union Jack and half B crown
G
John Bull got caught with his
D/F# Em7
Pants down, again
A7 Bm BmM7
That's inviting sundown
Bm7 Bm/G#
It's time to do or die
G D/F# Em A7
It's time to say "Good-bye"
C B Em A7
'Cause I'm the man who lost the British Empire
C B Em A7
Yes I'm the one, I let the Sun go down
[Verse 2]
D D/C#
Don't let the shadows lengthen
G/B D/A
And cover my good intentions
G D/F#
They say that darkness brings
G E/G# A F#/A#
The right time
Bm BmM7
But it's also time for tears
Bm7 Bm/G#
I'm so sorry and sincere
G D/F# Em7
Ahead of me a brilliant career
A7 Bm BmM7
Now I'm going nowhere
Bm7 Bm/G#
It's time to do or die
G D/F# Em A7
It's time to say "Good-bye"
C B Em A7
'Cause I'm the man who lost the British Empire
C B Em A7
Yes I'm the one, I let the Sun go down
[Bridge]
F G
Stay awhile Delay the night
Em Bmb5
I'm too young for twilight
F G
They'd tell the sun to hesitate
Em Asus4 A7
That's when Britain was Great
[Verse 3]
D D/C#
Now that the lights are flickering
G/B D/A
My pulse is quickening
G D/F#
All over the world the lamps will dim
G E/G# A F#/A#
And never be seen again
Bm BmM7
The balloon's gone up the night descends
Bm7 Bm/G#
As they lower the flag on no-man's land
G D/F#
They'll take you down B peg or two
Em7
This is the bitter end
A7 Bm BmM7
I walk into darkness
Bm7 Bm/G#
It's time to do or die
G D/F# Em A7
It's time to say "Good-bye"
C B Em A7
'Cause I'm the man who lost the British Empire
C B Em A7
Yes I'm the one, I let the Sun go down
[Ending]
D D/C# G/B
I let the sun go down
D/A G A7
Don't let the sun go down
A7 D D/C# G/B D/A G D/F# Em E/G# A F#/A#
I let the sun go down
Bm BmM7 Bm7 Bm/G# G D/F# Em A7
(Whistle)
C B Em A7
Yes I'm the man who lost the British Empire
C B Em A7
Yes I'm the one, I let the Sun go down
