1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 .

And the [C]women tug [Fmaj7]their hair

Like they're [Cmaj7]trying to [Fmaj7]prove it won't fall out

[C] [Fmaj7] [Cmaj7] [Fmaj7]
And [C]all the men [Fmaj7]are gargoyles

Dipped [Cmaj7]long in [Fmaj7]Irish stout

[C] [Fmaj7] [Cmaj7] [Fmaj7]
[G]The whole place is pickled

[G]The people are pickles for [Am]sure

And [G]no-one knows if they've done more here

Than they [C]ever would do in a [E7]jar

This could be [Am]Rotterdam or [C]anywhere, [Am]Liverpool or [C]Rome,

'Cause [Am]Rotterdam is [C]anywhere, [D7]anywhere [G7]alone,

[G7]Anywhere alone

Intro 2

And everyone is blond
And everyone is beautiful
And when blond and beautiful are multiple
They become so dull and dutiful

And when faced with dull and dutiful
They fire red warning flares
Battle-khaki personality
With red underwear

This could be Rotterdam or anywhere, Liverpool or Rome,
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere, anywhere alone,
Anywhere alone

Intro 4

The whole place is pickled
The people are pickles for sure
And no-one knows if they've done more here
Than they ever would do in a jar

This could be Rotterdam or anywhere, Liverpool or Rome,
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere, anywhere alone,
This could be Rotterdam or anywhere, Liverpool or Rome,
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere, anywhere alone,
Anywhere alone
