[Verse 1]
Eb5               Cm             Am                    Dm
Spring light in a hazy May and a man with a gun at the door
Eb5                       Cm                  Am                 Dm
Someone's crawling on the roof above, all the media here for the show
Ab        Bb              Cm
I've been waiting for our friends to come
     Ab           Bb            Cm
Like spiders down ropes to free-fall
  Ab           Bb         Cm
A thirty round clip for a visiting card
      Ab         Bb      C/G
Admit one to the embassy ball
 
[Chorus 1]
Gm                         C5           Dm
Caught in the crossfire on Princes Gate Avenue
Gm                    Bb5 C5     Eb5    F5
In go the windows and out go the lights
Gm                C5           Dm
Call me a doctor, fetch me a policeman
    Gm                       Bb5  C5         G F
I'm down on the floor in one hell of a fight
 
[Verse 2]
Eb5                     Cm               Am                     Dm
I'm just a soul with an innocent face, a regular boy dressed in blue
   Eb5                 Cm              Am                     Dm
Conducting myself in a proper way as befitting the job that I do
Ab             Bb           Cm
They came down on me like a ton of bricks
Ab           Bb             Cm
Swept off my feet, knocked about
Ab              Bb            Cm
There's nothing for it but to sit and wait
        Ab          Bb         C/G
For the hard men to get me out
 
[Chorus 2]
Gm                         C5           Dm
Caught in the crossfire on Princes Gate Avenue
Gm                    Bb5 C5     Eb5    F5
In go the windows and out go the lights
Gm                C5           Dm
Call me a doctor, fetch me a policeman
    Gm                               Bb5 C5
I'm down on the floor in one hell of a   fight

[Verse 3]
Eb5                         Cm                   Am                          Dm
Calm reason floats from the street below and the slow fuse burns through the night
Eb5                 Cm                       Am                         Dm
Everyone's tried to talk it through but they can't seem to get the deal right
Ab                  Bb             Cm
Somewhere there are Brownings in a two-hand hold
Ab                 Bb         Cm
Cocked and locked, one up the spout
Ab              Bb            Cm
There's nothing for it but to sit and wait
        Ab          Bb         C/G
For the hard men to get me out
 
[Chorus 3]
Gm                         C5           Dm
Caught in the crossfire on Princes Gate Avenue
Gm                    Bb5 C5     Eb5    F5
In go the windows and out go the lights
Gm                C5           Dm
Call me a doctor, fetch me a policeman
    Gm                               Bb5 C5
I'm down on the floor in one hell of a   fight
