CAPO 4TH FRET


Intro: G D G C G D G


G D G C G D G
If I was an Englishman I’d sing and dance and play
G D G C G D Dsus4 D
I’d dig out all the old ones and beseech you heed their say.
Em C G D
Their visions of a better life in a land as bright as day
Em D G C Em D G D
I’d do my William Morris Dance and I’d be on my way.
Em D G C Em D G Em D G C G D G
I’d do my William Morris Dance and I’d Be On My way



G D G C G D G
And if I was an English man I’d sing and dance all night
G D G C G D Dsus4 D
I’d sing a song of Tomas Payne of darkness and of light
Em C G D
I’d fire my favourite candles up old chokin' and old bright
Em D G C Em D G D
I’d do my Stanley Spencer dance and exit to the right
Em D G C G D G Em D G C G D G
I’d do my Harold Pinter (STOP) dance and exit to the right.


G D G C G D G
If I was an English man I’d raise my voice and sing
G D G C G D Dsus4 D
I’d enter in the house of lords and let the rafters ring
Em C G D
I’d sing to all those noble men of cabbages and kings
Em D G C Em D G D
I’d do my Arthur Muller dance and turf them in the bin
Em D G C Em D G Em D G C G D G
I’d do my Norman Wisdom dance and turf them in the bin


G D G C G D G
If I was an Englishman I’d sing and dance and play
G D G C G D Dsus4 D
I’d dig out all the old ones and beseech you heed their say.
Em C G D
Their visions of a better life in a land as bright as day
Em D G C Em D G D
I’d do my William Morris Dance and I’d be on my way.
Em D G C Em D G
I'd do my Martian Carthy Dance and I'd be on my way.
