I'm going back to a time when we owned this town
D5
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
A F#m E4 E
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns
A
I didn't know I was finding out now I'd be torn from you
D5
When we talked about things we were gonna do
A F#m E4 E
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too
D A
We go down to the rides on East Parade,
F#m E
By the lights of the Palace Arcade
D A E4 E
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
A
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
D5
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
A F#m E4 E
I'm a better man now than I was that day
D A
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
F#m E
By the lights of the Palace Arcade
D A E4 E
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
D A
Let's go down to the bandstand on the pier
F# E
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
D A E4 E
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café
D Esus4A E
I wheel my bike off the train,
Up the North Trade Road,
D Esus4A E
Look for you on Marley Lane
F#m
In every building, every streetlight
D E4 E
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?
A
You got nothing to hide, you can't change who you really are
D5
You can get a big house and a faster car
A F#m E4 E
You can run away boy, but you won't go far
D A
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
F#m E
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
D A E4 E
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
D A
Let's go down to the bandstand on the pier
F#m E
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
D A E4 E
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café
D A F#m
Sha la la la la la yeh, yeah
E D A E4 E
I'm going where the people know my name
