Easy Chords
Capo: 2nd fret
[Verse]
C Em F G
Cross the border, into the big bad world
C Em
Where it takes you about an hour just to cross the road,
F G
Just to stumble across another poor old sole,
C Em
From the dreary old lanes to the High St madness,
F G
I fight with my brain to believe my eyes
C Em
And it's harder than you think to believe this sadness,
F G
It creeps up my spine and haunts me through the night
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Life is good, and the girls are gorgeous,
F
Suddenly the air smells much greener now
Am
And I'm walking around with a half pack of cigarettes
G
Searching for the change I've lost somehow
[Chorus]
C Em
These Streets, have too many names for me
F G
I'm used to Glenfield Road and spending my time down in Orchy
C Em F G
I'll get used to this eventually I know, I know
[Verse]
C Em F G
Where'd the days go when all we did was play
C Em
And the stress that we were under wasn't stress at all,
F G
Just a run and a jump into a harmless fall
C Em
From walking by a high-rise to a landmark square,
F G
You see millions of people with millions of cares
C Em
And I stuggle to the train to make my way home
F G
I look at the people as they sit there alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Life is good and the sun is shining,
F
Everybody floats to their ideal place
Am
And the children all smile as the boats shuffle by them,
G
Trying to pretend that they've got some space.
[Chorus] (x2)
