Highroyds

(início)

INTRO

Riff 1 x4

     I remember nights out when we were young

They weren't very good, they were rubbish

     Running round Highroyds isn't fun

Just teenagers testing their courage
A                           G
Standing outside nightclubs in the snow
     F                  A
It's not very cool or impressive
     A                             G
They let in all the girls from the year below
   F                       A
No need for IDs with those dresses

B
Got news from afar

From a girl who knows who were are
B
She's still got my dinner money
B                     Riff 3
And she can keep it
Riff 1 x4
Riff 2 (with riff 1)

     Never had a fight that we haven't lost

We're not very tough or athletic

     Once I had a boxing champ in a headlock

     When he gets out I'll regret it

B                                        G
Got keys to a car, picked up a girl from Fosters Bar
B                                            Riff 3
The fast food and the cinema, it's not worth it
B                                                  G
Got word from down South, where he had heard it by word of mouth
B                                        Riff 3 x3
Haven't much stayed in touch, since Highroyds
Riff 1 x8

   Let it go, let it go, and if I'm wrong then I won't know

Coz no one's gonna tell me but ...

But he has gone and Ian's gone, And everybody went home

And nobody was left here in the end
B                                                  G
Got news from Uncle Hue, through his second cousin once removed
B                                                          Riff 3
It's too late there's a housing estate, it's called Highroyds
B                                                      G
Got a text from an ex, she wants to know when we're in London next
B                                               Riff 3 x3
Will you write a song about me, I don't think so
