G Am7
I was a stranger in the city
G7M G7 Am7 D9
Out of town were the people I knew
G F#7
I had that feeling of self-pity
Bm Bm7 Bm5-/7 E7
What to do? What to do? What to do
Am7 Cdim G9
The outlook was decidedly blue
G6 Bm Am6 Am7 E9
But as I walked through the foggy streets alone
Fdim Bm Fdim Am7 D7 G Am7 G
It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known

A foggy day in London town
G G7M Gm7 Gm6 A7/13 A7 D9
Had me low had me down

The British museum had lost its charm.

How long, I wondered, could this thing last

But the age of miracles hadn't passed
