Verse 1:

          A
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town

     D5
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds

        A                      F#m      Esus4   E
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns

Verse 2:

                     A       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you

        D5
When we thought about things we were gonna do

        A                      F#m     Esus4  E
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too

Chorus:

               D               A
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
Or I'm turning back home and I'm walking away

      A                     F#m      Esus4  E
I'm a better man now than I was that day

Chorus

               D                A

by the lights of the Palace Arcade

Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

               D                A
Go down to the bandstand on the pier

          F#                      E
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear

                    D                      A        Esus4  E
Take time, just 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 streetlight

                   D              Esus4  E
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?

Verse 4:

                       A~
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you 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
