Am, F, G, E


[Verse]

Am                          F
It started on a weekend in May
      G
I was looking for attention
E
needed intervention

Am                       F
Felt somebody looking at me
       G
With a powder white complexion
E (stop)
feeling the connection

    F                    G
The way she looked was so ridiculous
      E
Every single step
       Am
Had me waiting for the next

F                       G
Before I knew it, it was serious
E
Dragged me out the bar
E
To the backseat of a car


[Chorus]

         Am
When the lights go out,
                 F
she's all I ever think about
                    G
The picture burning in my brain
       G
kissing in the rain
  E                             Am
I can't forget my English love affair
                        F
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
                 G
The movie playing in my head
       G
Of her king size bed
        E
Means I can't forget my
               Am, F, G
English love affair
E
My English love affair


[Verse]

Am                             F
Next thing we were back at her place
  G                   
A hideaway in Mayfair 
E
all the great and good there

Am                            F
Drinking all the way to third base
G
Princes getting naked
E (stop)
Falling on their faces

F                    G
The story line was so ridiculous
E                        
Every single step had me 
Am
begging for the next

F                       G
Before I knew it, it was serious
E
Dragged me up the stairs and it
E
wasn't ending there


[Chorus]

         Am
When the lights go out,
                 F
she's all I ever think about
                    G
The picture burning in my brain
       G
kissing in the rain
   E                              Am
I can't forget my English love affair
                          F
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
                 G
The movie playing in my head
       G
Of her king size bed
        E
Means I can't forget my
               Am, F, G, E
English love affair


[Bridge]

           F
When I got out I knew that

nobody I knew would be
G
believing me
            F
I look back now and know that

nobody could ever take the
G
memory


[Chorus]

         Am
When the lights go out,
                 F
she's all I ever think about
                    G
The picture burning in my brain
       G
kissing in the rain
  E                              Am
I can't forget my English love affair
                          F
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
                 G
The movie playing in my head
       G
Of her king size bed
        E
Means I can't forget my
                Am, F, G
English love affair

E                 Am, F, G
My English love affair
E                   Am
My English love affair
