Tono: D
D
F#m
G
A7
Cross the border, into the big bad world
D
F#m
Where it takes you about an hour just to cross the road,
G
A7
Just to stumble across another poor old sole,
D
F#m
From the dreary old lanes to the High St madness,
G
A7
I fight with my brain to believe my eyes
D
F#m
And it's harder than you think to believe this sadness,
G
A7
It creeps up my spine and haunts me through the night
Bm7
Life is good, and the girls are gorgeous,
G
Suddenly the air smells much greener now
Bm7
And I'm walking around with a half pack of cigarettes
A7
Searching for the change I've lost somehow
D
F#m
These Streets, have too many names for me
G
A7
I'm used to Glenfield Road and spending my time down in Orchy
D
F#m
G
A7
I'll get used to this eventually I know, I know
D
F#m
G
A7
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
A7
Just a run and a jump into a harmless fall
D
F#m
From walking by a high-rise to a landmark square,
G
A7
You see millions of people with millions of cares
D
F#m
And I stuggle to the train to make my way home
G
A7
I look at the people as they sit there alone
Bm7
Life is good and the sun is shining,
G
Everybody floats to their ideal place
Bm7
And the children all smile as the boats shuffle by them,
A7
Trying to pretend that they've got some space.
