[Verse 1]
B B/A#
Whenever I'm in the tightest corner
E/G# B/F#
Whenever I feel forlorn
E B/D#
I think of the isle where I was born
E C#/F F# D#/G
And the duty to which I've sworn
G#m G#mM7
But I woke up in a nightmare
G#m7 G#m/F
With a Union Jack and half G# crown
E
John Bull got caught with his
B/D# C#m7
Pants down, again
F#7 G#m G#mM7
That's inviting sundown
G#m7 G#m/F
It's time to do or die
E B/D# C#m F#7
It's time to say "Good-bye"
A G# C#m F#7
'Cause I'm the man who lost the British Empire
A G# C#m F#7
Yes I'm the one, I let the Sun go down
[Verse 2]
B B/A#
Don't let the shadows lengthen
E/G# B/F#
And cover my good intentions
E B/D#
They say that darkness brings
E C#/F F# D#/G
The right time
G#m G#mM7
But it's also time for tears
G#m7 G#m/F
I'm so sorry and sincere
E B/D# C#m7
Ahead of me a brilliant career
F#7 G#m G#mM7
Now I'm going nowhere
G#m7 G#m/F
It's time to do or die
E B/D# C#m F#7
It's time to say "Good-bye"
A G# C#m F#7
'Cause I'm the man who lost the British Empire
A G# C#m F#7
Yes I'm the one, I let the Sun go down
[Bridge]
D E
Stay awhile Delay the night
C#m Bmb5
I'm too young for twilight
D E
They'd tell the sun to hesitate
C#m F#sus4 F#7
That's when Britain was Great
[Verse 3]
B B/A#
Now that the lights are flickering
E/G# B/F#
My pulse is quickening
E B/D#
All over the world the lamps will dim
E C#/F F# D#/G
And never be seen again
G#m G#mM7
The balloon's gone up the night descends
G#m7 G#m/F
As they lower the flag on no-man's land
E B/D#
They'll take you down G# peg or two
C#m7
This is the bitter end
F#7 G#m G#mM7
I walk into darkness
G#m7 G#m/F
It's time to do or die
E B/D# C#m F#7
It's time to say "Good-bye"
A G# C#m F#7
'Cause I'm the man who lost the British Empire
A G# C#m F#7
Yes I'm the one, I let the Sun go down

I let the sun go down

(Whistle)
A G# C#m F#7
Yes I'm the man who lost the British Empire
