[Intro]
 
Em F#m G A
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
E     Bm        A               C#m
And into the sea goes pretty England and me
C                 Bm         E
Around the Bay of Biscay and back for tea
E                  Bm
Hit traffic on the Dogger Bank
A                       C#m
Up the Thames to find a taxi rank
C                   Bm       E
Sail on by with the tide and go to sleep
 
(And the radio says…)
 
 
[Chorus]
 
E         D    E            Am   Bm
This is a low, but it won't hurt you
E            D  E             Am     Bm
When you're alone, it will be there with you
C                Bm7    E
Finding ways to stay solo
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
E                     Bm
Up the Tyne, Forth and Cromarty
A                   C#m
There's a low in the high forties
    C                  Bm
And Saturday's locked away on the pier
    E
Not fast enough, dear
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
E           Bm        A                C#m
And on the Malin Head, Blackpool looks blue and red
        C                   Bm
And the Queen, she's gone 'round the bend
          E
Jumped off Land's End
 
(And the radio says…)
 
 
[Chorus]
 
E         D    E            Am   Bm
This is a low, but it won't hurt you
E            D  E             Am     Bm
When you're alone, it will be there with you
C                Bm7    E
Finding ways to stay solo
 
 
[Solo]
 
E Bm A C#m
C Bm E
 
 
[Interlude]
 
Em F#m G A
 
 
[Chorus]
 
E         D    E            Am   Bm
This is a low, but it won't hurt you
E            D  E             Am     Bm
When you're alone, it will be there with you
C                Bm7    E
Finding ways to stay solo
 
E         D    E            Am   Bm
This is a low, but it won't hurt you
E            D  E             Am     Bm
When you're alone, it will be there with you
C                Bm7    E
Finding ways to stay solo

nice tabs but there are a couple of little mistakes. there should be a Bm (over the you) after the Am in the first line of the chorus (this is a low, but it won't hurt you), much like the second line. and the chorus ends with a Bm7 (not Bm) followed by the E (... stay solo). I looked up the album sleeve of Parklife for the chords, so i'm pretty sure of my corrections. Happy guitar playing. :)

Not bad at all. FWIW you can spoof the into by playing the following chord sequence: Em F#m G A

Love this song!! Great tab. thank you!
