D F#m
Cross the border,
G A
Into the big bad world
D
where it takes you 'bout an hour
F#m
just to cross the road
G A
just to stumble across another poor old soul from
D F#m
The dreary old lanes to the high-street madness
G A
I fight with my brain to believe my eyes
D
and it's harder than you think
F#m
to delay the sadness
G
that creeps up my spine
A
and haunts me through the night
Bm
and life is good and the girls are gorgeuos
G
suddenly the air smells much greener now
Bm
and I'm wondering 'round
with a half pack of cigarettes
A
searching for the change that I've lost somehow
D F#m
These streets have too many names for me
G A
I'm used to Glenfield road and spending my time down in Orchy
D F#m
I'll get used to this eventually
G A
I know, I know
D F#m G A
where'd the days go? When all we did was play
D F#m
And the stress that we were under wasn't stress at all
G A
just a run and a jump into a harmless fall from
D F#m
walking by a high-rise to a landmark square
G A
you see millions of people with millions of cares
D F#m
And I struggle to the train to make my way home
G A
I look at the people as they sit there alone
Bm
Life is good, and the sun is shining
G
Everybody floods to their ideal place
Bm
And the children all smile as a boat shuffled by them
A
Trying to pretend that they've got som space
D F#m
These streets have too many names for me
G A
I'm used to Glenfield road and spending my time down in Orchy
D F#m
I'll get used to this eventually
G A
I know, I know
D F#m
These streets have too many names for me
G A
I'm used to Glenfield road and spending my time down in Orchy
D F#m
I'll get used to this eventually
G A
I know, I know
Bm
Life is good, and the girls are gorgeous
G
suddenly the air smells much greener now
Bm
and I'm wondering 'round
with a half pack of cigarettes
A
searching for the change that I've lost somehow
D F#m
These streets have too many names for me
G A
I'm used to Glenfield road and spending my time down in Orchy
D F#m
I'll get used to this eventually
G A
I know, I know
D F#m
These streets have too many names for me
G A
I'm used to Glenfield road and spending my time down in Orchy
D F#m
I'll get used to this eventually

I know, I know
