Sting - English Man In New Yorkadd

Em A Bm Bm7I don't drink coffee I take tea my dearEm A Bm Bm7I like my toast done on the sideEm A Bm Bm7And you can hear it in my accent when I talk Em A Bm Bm7I'm an Englishman in New York
See me walking down Fifth AvenueA walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I'm an Englishman in New YorkEm A Bm Bm7I'm an alien I'm a legal alien Em A Bm Bm7I'm an Englishman in New YorkEm A Bm Bm7I'm an alien I'm a legal alien Em A Bm Bm7I'm an Englishman in New York
If "manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New YorkD A A7Modesty, propriety can lead to notorietyBm Bm7 F#You could end up as the only one G AGentleness, sobriety are rare in this society G* BmAt night a candle's brighter than the sun
Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you canA gentleman will walk but never run
If "manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
