[Am][Em][G][Am][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Am]I remember nights wh[G]en we were young
They [F]weren't very good
they were rub[Am]bish
Running round Highroyds is[G]n't fun
Just [F]teenagers testing [Am]their courage

[Verse 2]
[Am]Standing [A5]outside [Am]night[G]clubs in the snow
Is [F]not very cool or impress[Am]ive[A5]
They let in all the girls [Am]from [G]the year below
No [F]need for I.D's with those
dresses
[Am][Bb][A5][Am][B][G]

[Verse 3]
[B]
Got news from afar
From a girl who [G]knows who we are
[B]She's still got my dinner money

[Interlude 1]
She can keep it

[Verse 4]
[Am]Never had a fight that we [G]haven't lost
We're [F]not very tough or [Am]athletic
Once I had a boxing champ [G]in a headlock
And [F]when he gets out I'll regret
[Am]it[Bb][A5][Am][A5][Am][B]

[Verse 5]
Got keys to a [A5]car[B]
Picked up a girl from [G]Boston Spa
[B]For fast food and the cinema
It's not worth it
[Am][A5][C5][B]

[Verse 6]
Got word from down south
Well he had heard about it [G]word of mouth
[B]Haven't much stayed in touch
[A5]Since[Am][A5][B][A5][B][A5][B][A5][B][G][Em][G][A5][Em][G][Am]

[Verse 7]
Let it go and let it go [G]And
if I'm wrong then
I won't know
'Cause [F]no one's gonna
tell me but [Am]a friend
But [A5]he has gone and Ian's gone
And [G]everybody went along
And [F]nobody was left here in the
[Am]end[A5][Adim]
[Am][Em][E]

[Verse 8]
[B]
Got news from uncle Hugh
Through a second cousin [G]once removed
[B]It's too late there's a housing estate
It's [A5]called [B]Hig[Am]hroyd[B]s

[Verse 9]
Got a text [B]from an ex
She wants to know when
we're in [G]London next
[B]"And will you write a song about me?"

[Outro 1]
I don't think so
