         F*                    F*             F          G     F*
From the heart of the Southern Downs, to the North-East London reservoirs,

         F*                         F*                F    G       F*
From the start, the land scaped my sound, before I'd ever been to America.
C D [don't know this bit] And if I knew anybody who played pedal steel guitar, C D [don't know this bit] I'd get them in my band and then my band would get real far,
           F               G                   E7              Dm
But I was raised in middle England, and not in Nashville Tennessee,

         F          G             F*
And the only person in my band is me.
A simple scale on an old guitar, and a punk rock sense of honesty. I cannot fail, I've got this far with no knowledge of mid-west geography. And if I knew anywhere where I could drive in a straight line For hours in the desert, I'd drive for hours at a time. But I was raised in middle England, not in Nashville Tennessee, And the only person in this car is me.
Dm                F         F                   G           Dm
   And yes I'm in four-four time, and yes I use cheap cheap rhymes,

                    F        F*
But I try to make a sound my own.

Dm                 F        F                 G              Dm
   I know I don't break new ground, many have travelled this sound,

                     F          F*
But I try to make it sound like home.

           F  [hold]                     F [hold]
Well I've been to Texas state, I didn't think it was that fucking great,
And Nebraska is just a bunch of songs, Holloway and Hampshire where I belong. And I don't know anybody who plays pedal steel guitar, All the city roads are twisted and I do not own a car. I was raised in middle England, not in Nashville Tennessee, And the only thing I'm offering is me.
