[Intro 1]
[Am][C]
[Am][C]
[Am][C]
[Bb][Gm][C][Am][F]
[Am]
[C][Bb][Am][F]
[C][F][C]
I'm [Am]imagining rippling

[Verse 1]
[C]fingers on keys
[Am]Miming it wild on a cold stone table[C]
Picturing and wishing for home
and jiggling my knees
Send an ur[Am]gent [C]cable[F]

[Verse 2]
Dickhead's done a [F]runner
and he's wondering
If anyone [C]cares
Is the land[F]ing light on
Back [C]to the pebbles that mum's
eggs hatched in
Give me her per[F]fume
Give [Em]me her prayers an[C]d advi[Am]ce

[Verse 3]
Hands up [Am]if you've never seen th[C]e sea
[Am]I'm from a land with an island s[C]tatus
Makes [Gm]us think that
everyone hates us
Maybe [C]darling they [Gm]do[C]
But they [Gm]haven't met [F]you
They only know the villains at the tiller
And they gambled the farm
on a headline

[Verse 4]
[F]Jesus, get[C]ting harder to see what
they're doing 'til it's done
And they're [Am]never gonna make
an arrest on [C]Fleet [Bb]Street

[Verse 5]
Yes [Bb]and I'm given to believ
[Gm]ing in l[F]ove[Am]
I've written [F]the word in my blood
And I perch on [C]a shelf of the K2
Made of the believers that
[Bb]Love, opens the fist just
enough for a [Am]hand[F]
To slip [C]into the hand
[F]To slip in[C]to the hand

[Verse 6]
[C]I've been [Am]asleep in the woods
with a mother to [C]be
Plan[Am]ning on a static caravan
in the [C]Andes
Making a break with the steel
magpie on the rise
Defeat in our time or do [F]we
Meet on the street again due to the few?
Batter it [C]out and re[F]fresh vendetta
Better [C]surely to pause
Consider the path
It's full [Am]of blood,
snot and teeth and the glory of no one

[Verse 7]
Hands up [Am]if you've never
seen [C]the sea
[Am]We're from a place with
an island [C]status
[Gm]Queuing round the corner for
a pencil and [C]paper
[Gm]Again[C]
Come the vir[Gm]us of vi[F]rii
God send us to a digital end
With following stranger
[C]s and swi[F]ping at friends
I'll [C]send you a postcard
See you in Hull
In a sweat[Am]er made of
Atacama llama [C]wool[Bb]

[Verse 8]
Yes [Bb]and I'm given to believ
[Gm]ing in l[F]ove[Am]
I've written [F]the word in my blood
And I perch on a shelf [C]of the K2
Made of the believers that
[Bb]Love, opens the fist just
enough for a [F]hand[Am][F]
To slip in[C]to the hand
To [F]slip in[C]to the hand

[Verse 9]
[C][Bb]
Yes and I'm given to believ
[Gm]ing in l[F]ove[Am]
I've written [F]the word in my blood
I've seen it make a heaven of
[C]Backstreet,
bedsit and bomb site living room
[Bb]Love, opens the fist just
enough for [Am]a hand[F]
To slip [C]into the hand
[F]To slip in[C]to the hand

[Outro 1]
