Verse 1

C                                Am
Early in the morning where there used to be a slough
          C                                 Am
There's a tiny business lake, don't let the cattails fool you
            C            Am
Down in the bottom where nothing is born
C                                Am
Sleeps a silver dollar with your face thereon

Pre-Chorus 1

F                                       D7
Wish I could trace the frowning compass of your mouth
       F                                   D7
Drop a mercury dime down a Roman drain and summon Mars

Chorus 1

C
Last lion of Albion
        Am
They'll use you for centuries to come
        F
They'll steal your patents for the sun
    D7
And you'll feel extinction
                                Am
When you see your face on their money

(x3) (on these three and the prior Am, alternate removing your finger off the D string)
Am

Verse 2

C                            Am
Late in the heavens that are already bought
C                          Am
Sleeps a red planet in the galaxy of a lion's thoughts
       C                    Am
On the surface every tendon and intended machine
         C                           Am
Is gonna buckle, knuckle, kneel on a carpet of lion's tongues

Pre-Chorus 2

F                                                    D7
Wish I could stand in the spray of the cliff of your sweet revenge
F                               D7
Oceans of naked serrated marble crushing in

Break 2

Chorus 2

C
Last lion of Albion

They'll steal your patents for the sun
    D7
And you'll feel extinction
C
Last lion of Albion
        Am
They'll use you for centuries to come
     F
Your wound's the main road into London
D7
You'll feel extinction
                                Am
When you see your face on their money

Chorus 3

C
Last lion of Albion
    D
The last she-wolf to mother Rome
    Am
The last virgin to wash ashore
You'll feel extinction
C
Last lion of Albion
    D
The last of the Mohicans gone
    Am
The last cedars of Lebanon
And you'll feel extinction
C
Last lion of Albion
     D
Last tiger of Tasmania
    Am
The last she-wolf to suckle Rome
You'll feel extinction
     C
When you see your face
 D                 Am
(Fay-ay-ay-ay-ace) on their money
