The Pound Is Sinking Paul McCartney
The pound is [Fm]sinking, [C] [F]
[Fm]the peso's failing[C] [F]
[Fm]The lira's reeling and [Bb]feeling quite appalling
[Ab]The mark is holding,
[F]the franc is fading
[Bb]The drachma's very weak but [Eb]everyone's still trading
[Ab]The market's [F#]bottom has fallen right o[Ab]ut
And only the [F#]strong are survivors[Ab] [F#] [F]
Well, I [C]fear my d[Fm]ear that it's eminently clear
That you [Db]can't see the trees for the[Fm] forest
Your [Cm]father was an e[Bbm]xtraordinary man b[Eb]ut you don't seem
To have inherited[Db] many of his m[Fm]annerisms[Db] [Fm]
Oh, [Db]any of his m[Fm]annerisms
[Ab]The dollar's moving,
[F]the ruble's rising
[Bb]The yen is keeping up which [Eb]hardly seems surprising
[Ab]The market's [F#]bottom has fallen right [Ab]out
And only the [F#]strong are survivors[Ab]
[Fm]Hear me [C]lover, I [Eb]can't be held responsible[Ab] now
For [Bbm]something that d[Ab]idn't happen
I [Eb]knew you for a minute, [Ab]oh it didn't[Fm] happen
[Db]Only for a [Cm]minute, your [Fm]heart just wasn't i[Cm]n it anymore[Db]
[Fm]The pound is sin[C]ki[F]ng,
[Fm]the peso's faili[C]ng[F]
[Fm]The lira's reeling and [Bb]feeling quite appalling[Fm]
