[Intro]
Am Am7 Am Am7 x2

[Verse]
Dm            G             Am          Am7
I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear
Dm         G                 Am   Am7
I like my toast done on one side
Dm           G             Am           Am7
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
       Dm            G   Am
I'm an Englishman in New York
Dm        G               Am      Am7
See me walking down Fifth Avenue
Dm         G               Am   Am7
A walking cane here at my side
Dm            G     Am   Am7
I take it everywhere I walk
       Dm         G      Am
I'm an Englishman in New York

[Chorus]
Dm      G    Am          Am7
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
       Dm         G      Am
I'm an Englishman in New York
Dm      G    Am          Am7
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
       Dm         G      Am
I'm an Englishman in New York

[Verse]
Dm                G                 Am    Am7
If, "Manners maketh man" as someone said
Dm            G           Am    Am7
Then he's the hero of the day
Dm                G             Am      Am7
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
       Dm         G             Am
Be yourself no matter what they say

[Chorus]
Dm      G    Am          Am7
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
       Dm         G      Am
I'm an Englishman in New York
Dm      G    Am          Am7
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
       Dm         G      Am
I'm an Englishman in New York

[Bridge]
C                       G          G7
Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
Am            Am7            E
You could end up as the only one
F                         G
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
E                                     Am
At night a candle's brighter than the sun

[Verse]
Dm                G                   Am    Am7
Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Dm                G             Am    Am7
Takes more than a license for a gun
Dm                G                Am      Am7
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
       Dm         G             Am
A gentleman will walk but never run
Dm                G                 Am    Am7
If, "Manners maketh man" as someone said
Dm            G           Am    Am7
Then he's the hero of the day
Dm                G            Am       Am7
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
       Dm         G             Am
Be yourself no matter what they say
       Dm         G             Am
Be yourself no matter what they say
       Dm         G             Am
Be yourself no matter what they say

[Chorus]
Dm      G    Am          Am7
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
       Dm         G      Am
I'm an Englishman in New York
Dm      G    Am          Am7
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
       Dm         G      Am
I'm an Englishman in New York
