[Verse 1] (Am,Fmaj,G,E)

I[Am]t started on a weekend [Fmaj]in May
I[G] was looking for attention
n[E]eeded intervention

F[Am]elt somebody looking at[Fmaj] me
W[G]ith a powder white complexion
f[E]eeling the connection

[Am]The way she looked was so [Fmaj]ridiculous
[G]Every single step
[E]Had me waiting for

the next

[Am]Before I knew it, it was [Fmaj]serious
[G]Dragged me out the bar
To the [E]backseat of a car

[Chorus](Am,Fmaj,G,E)

Am ^
When the lights go out,
she's all I ever t[Fmaj]hink about
The picture burning [G]in my brain

kissin' in the rain
[E]I can't forget my English love affair
[Am]Today, I'm seven thousand[Fmaj] miles away
The movie playing [G]in my head

Of her king size bed
Means I[E] can't forget my

English love affair

My English love affair

Am Fmaj G E x2

[Verse 2] (Am,Fmaj,G,E)

[Am]Next thing we were back at
her [Fmaj]place
A[G] hideaway in Mayfair [E]all

the great and good there
[Am]Drinking all the way to third
[Fmaj]base
[G]Princess getting naked
[E]Falling on their faces

[Am]The story line was so [Fmaj]ridiculous
G e
Every single step had me begging

for the next

[Am]Before I knew it, it was [Fmaj]serious
[G]Dragged me up the stairs and it
[E]wasn't ending there

[Chorus] (Am,Fmaj,G,E)

When the l[Am]ights go out,
she's all I ever [Fmaj]think about
The picture burning [G]in my brain

kissin' in the rain
I [E]can't forget my
English love af[Am]fair
Today, I'm seven thousand [Fmaj]miles

away
The movie playing [G]in my head

of her king size bed
Means I [E]can't forget my English
love aff[Am]air

Am Fmaj G E x1

[Middle XD] (Fmaj,G)

When I got ou[Fmaj]t I knew that

nobody I knew would be
b[G]elieving me
I look back [Fmaj]now and know that
nobody could ever take the
G
memory

[Chorus Break down] (Am,Fmaj,G,E)
Am^
When the lights go out, she's
all I ever [Fmaj]think about
The picture burning [G]in my brain

kissin' in the rain
I [E]can't forget my
(start fading in with strumming)
English love affair
[Am]Today, I'm seven thousand
[Fmaj]miles away
The movie playing [G]in my head

of her king size bed
Means I [E]can't forget my

English love affair

Am Fmaj G x1

My [E]English love affair

Am Fmaj G x1

E Am
My English love affair
