[Intro]
F Dm Am
...............
[Verse 1]
F Dm Am
I love my hometown as much as Motown, I love SoCal
F Dm Am
And you know I love Springsteen, faded blue jeans, Tennessee whiskey
F Dm
But something happened, I heard him laughing
Am
I saw the dimples first and then I heard the accent
F Dm
They say home is where the heart is
Am
But that's not where mine lives
[Chorus]
F
You know I love a London boy
Dm Bb C
I enjoy walking Camden Market in the afternoon
F Dm
He likes my American smile, like a child when our eyes meet
Bb C
Darling, I fancy you
F Dm
Took me back to Highgate, met all of his best mates
Bb C
So I guess all the rumors are true
F Dm
You know I love a London boy
Bb C
Boy, I fancy you (Ooh)
[Verse 2]
F Dm Am
And now I love high tea, stories from Uni, and the West End
F Dm Am
You can find me in the pub, we are watching rugby with his school friends
F Dm
Show me a gray sky, a rainy cab ride
Am
Babe, don't threaten me with a good time
F Dm
They say home is where the heart is
Am
But God, I love the English
[Chorus]
F Dm
You know I love a London boy, I enjoy nights in Brixton
Bb C
Shoreditch in the afternoon
F Dm
He likes my American smile, like a child when our eyes meet
Bb C
Darling, I fancy you
F Dm
Took me back to Highgate, met all of his best mates
Bb C
So I guess all the rumors are true
F Dm
You know I love a London boy
Bb C
Boy, I fancy you (Ooh)
[Bridge]
F
So please show me Hackney
Dm Bb
Doesn't have to be Louis V up on Bond Street
C F Dm
Just wanna be with you
Bb C
Wanna be with you
F
Stick with me, I'm your queen
Dm Bb
Like a Tennessee Stella McCartney, I'm the heat
C F Dm
Just wanna be with you (Wanna be with you)
Bb C
Wanna be with you (Oh)
[Chorus]
F Dm
You know I love a London boy, I enjoy walking SoHo
Bb C
Drinking in the afternoon (Yeah)
F Dm
He likes my American smile, like a child when our eyes meet
Bb C
Darling, I fancy you
F Dm
Took me back to Highgate, met all of his best mates
Bb C
So I guess all the rumors are true
F Dm
You know I love a London boy
Bb C
Boy, I fancy you (Ooh)
[Outro]
F
So please show me Hackney
Dm Bb
Doesn't have to be Louis V up on Bond Street
C F
Just wanna be with you
Dm Bb C
I, I, I fancy you
Oh whoa, oh, I
Stick with me, I'm your queen
Like a Tennessee Stella McCartney, I'm the heat
Just wanna be with you (Ooh)
Wanna be with you
I fancy you (Yeah), I fancy you
Oh whoa, ah
I don't know nor care who this song is about, but I just love how Taylor arranged this song. It was masterfully made and will surely be one of the more memorable songs in her album. I'll say it now that Taylor's "Lover" album will be one of the contenders for the best album of the year.
