They'd be all around, change the face of this town cos they're lazy

I was with the soldiers in the school hall

But the lights you'll see form a line that'll be pointing all the way home

Bb         C
I was here before

    Bb             C
My name was on the door

Bb                                F
Took a score of years to get to your seat

Bb                                      F
