F
I people-watch on the way back home

                F   C     G
Envious at the glimmer of hope
Give me a break from feeling alone
                  C   G      F
Gives me a moment out of the ego
I used to feel so invincible
                           F           C        G
I used to feel there was a world worth dreaming of
Back in the gasworks, screaming the song
                   C           G        F
Just the beauty of youth would quell my aching heart

                        G          C   F
Oh, it feels so dark remembering

                              G
Oh, my heart feels so dark remembering
[Chorus]
F
I people-watch on the way back home

C
Evеrybody on the treadmill, running

G                                      C  G
Under the billboards, out of thе heat

                     C      G       F
Somebody's darling's on the streets tonight
Oh, I can't stop running
C                    G
I see the whole town fall

                                      C  G
I people-watch on the way back home

                                F     C  G
I people-watch on the way back home
[Verse 2]
F
I came back home after seven years

                   F      C        G
Wide awake tracing tracks of their tears
Cornered the nurse to get the gist of it
                           G   C      F
I promised her I'd get her out of the care home
The place was falling to bits
                      F    C            G
Understaffed and overruled by calloused hands
The poor nurse was around-the-clock
                  G         C       F
And the beauty of youth had left my breaking heart

                            G               C    G   F
But it wasn't hard when you love someone
Oh, I stayed all night, till you left this life
G
'Cause that's just love
[Chorus]
F
I people-watch on the way back home

C
Everybody on the treadmill, running

G                                      C  G
Under the billboards, out of the heat

                     C      G       F
Somebody's darling's on the streets tonight
Oh, I can't stop running
C                    G
I see the whole town fall

                                     C  G
I people-watch on the way back home

                      G   C      F   C    G
I people-watch on the way back home
[Post-Chorus]
G                                       C  G
I people-watch on the way back home

                      G   C    F       C   G
I people-watch on the way back home

G                                       C  G
I people-watch on the way back home

                      G   C    F
I people-watch on the way back home
[Bridge]
       C                F
In the cold rain-soaked Garden of Remembrance

       C                G               F
Kittiwakes etched your initials in the sky

      C                       G             F
Oh, I fear for this crippled island and the turmoil of the time

         G                                        C   G
And I'll hold you in my heart till the day I die
[Chorus]
F
I people-watch on the way back home

C
Everybody on the treadmill, running

G                                      C  G
Under the billboards, out of the heat

                     G      C       F
Somebody's darling's on the streets tonight
Oh, I can't stop running
C
I see the whole town fall

G                                       C  G
I people-watch on the way back home

G                     G   C    F      C    G
I people-watch on the way back home
[Post-Chorus]
G                                    C
I people-watch on the way back home

G                     G   C   F         C   G
I people-watch on the way back home
I people-watch on the way back home
                      G   C    F     C  G  C G F  C  G
I people-watch on the way back home
