Englishman in New York Sting
[Verse]
[Em]I don't drink c[A]offee I take t[Bm7]ea, my dea[F#m7]r.
[Em]I like my t[A]oast done on one s[Bm7]ide.[F#m7]
[Em]And you can h[A]ear it in my [Bm7]accent when I talk,[F#m7]
[Em]I'm an [A]Englishman in N[Bm7]ew York.[F#m7]
[Verse]
[Em]You see me w[A]alking down Fifth [Bm7]Avenue,[F#m7]
[Em]A walking [A]cane here at my s[Bm7]ide.[F#m7]
[Em]I take it [A]everywhere I w[Bm7]alk,
[F#m7]I'm an [Em]Englishman [A]in New [Bm7]York.[F#m7]
[Cborus]
[F#m7]Who -[Em7] a. I'm an a[A]lien.
[Bm7]I'm a legal alien.
[F#m7]I'm an [Em]Englishman [A]in New [Bm7]York.
[F#m7]Who -[Em] a. I'm an [A]alien.
[Bm7]I'm a legal alien.
[F#m7]I'm an [Em7]Englishman [A]in New [Bm7]York.[F#m7]
[Verse]
[Em]If "manners maketh m[A]an" as someone [Bm7]said,[F#7]
[Em]He's the h[A]ero of the d[Bm7]ay.[F#m7]
[Em]It takes a m[A]an to suffer i[Bm7]gnorance and smile.
[F#m7]Be yours[Em]elf no m[A]atter what they s[Bm7]ay.[F#m7]
[Cborus]
[F#m7]Whoa.[Em7] I'm an alie[A]n.

[F#m7]I'm an [Em]Englishman [A]in New [Bm7]York.
[Bridge]
[D]Modesty, propriety can l[A]ead to notoriety,
But y[Bm7]ou could end up as the only [F#7]one.
[G]Gentleness, sobriety are so [A]rare in this society.
At [C#dim]night a candle's brighter than [Bm7]the sun.[F#m7]
[Verse]
[Em]Takes more than c[A]ombat gear to m[Bm7]ake a man.[F#m7]
[Em]Takes more than a l[A]icense for a g[Bm7]un.[F#m7]
[Em]Confront your [A]enemies, av[Bm7]oid them when you can.[F#m7]
A g[Em]entleman will w[A]alk but never r[Bm7]un.
[Em]If "manners mak[A]eth man" as someone s[Bm7]aid,[F#m7]
[Em]He's the h[A]ero of the d[Bm7]ay.[F#m7]
[Em]It takes a m[A]an to suffer [Bm7]ignorance and smile.
[F#m7]Be yours[Em7]elf no m[A]atter what they s[Bm7]ay.
[F#m7]Be yours[Em7]elf no m[A]atter what they s[Bm7]ay.
