[Verse 1]
          A
I'm going back to a time when we owned this town

     D5
Down Powder Mill Lane and the Battlegrounds

        A                      F#m      Esus4   E
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns
[Verse 2]
                     A
I didn't know I was finding out how I'd be torn from you

        D5
When we talked about things we were gonna do

        A                      F#m     Esus4  E
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too
[Chorus]
                    D               A
We'd go down to the rides on East Parade,

       F#m                      E
by the lights of the Palace Arcade

                   D                     A       Esus4  E
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
[Verse 3]
                         A
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say

       D5
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away

      A                     F#m      Esus4  E
I'm a better man now than I was that day
[Chorus]
                     D                A
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

       F#m                     E
by the lights of the Palace Arcade

                   D                     A       Esus4  E
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

               D                A
Go down to the bandstand on the pier

          F#m                     E
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear

                       D                      A        Esus4  E
To take turns as the stars at the Sovereign Light Café
[Bridge]
  D    Esus4 A          E
I wheel my bike off the train,
Up the North Trade Road,
D       Esus4 A        E
Look for you on Marley Lane

                         F#m
In every building, every street sign

                   D              Esus4  E
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?
[Verse 4]
                          A
But you've got nothing to hide, you can't change who you really are

        D5
You can get a big house and a faster car

        A                     F#m       Esus4  E
You can run away boy, but you won't go far
[Chorus]
                     D                A
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

       F#m                     E
by the lights of the Palace Arcade

                  D                     A      Esus4  E
Watch night going down on the Sovereign Light Café

                   D                A
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier

          F#m                    E
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear

                      D                      A       Esus4  E
To take turns as the stars at the Sovereign Light Café

      D           A     F#m
La la la la la la la la yeah,

    E                      D       A   Esus4  E
I'm going where the people know my name

      D           A     F#m
La la la la la la la la yeah,

    E                      D       A   Esus4  E
I'm going where the people know my name
