Oxford Street chords and lyrics - EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]Whe[G]n
[D]I was ten I thought
my brother was God -
He'd lie in [G]bed and turn out
the light with a fishing rod.
[D]I learned the names of all
his football team,
Aid I Still re[G]membered them when
I was [A]nine[D] teen.
[G]

[Verse 2]
[A]
[D]Strange the things deal that
I remember still
Shouts from [G]the playground when
I was home and ill.
[D]My sister taught me all
that she learned there;
When we Grow [G]up, we said,
we'd share a flat some[A]where.

[Verse 3]
[G]When I [A]was seventeen,
[G]Lon[A]don[G] meant [A]Oxford Street[G].[D]
[G][A]
Where [D]I grow up there
were no factories.
There was [G]a school and shops
and some Fields and trees,
And [D]rows of houses one by one appeared.

[Verse 4]
I was [G]born in one and Lived
there for eighteen [A]years.
[G]Then when [A]I was ninet[G]een.[A]
[G]I thought the Hum[A]ber would [G]be the [D]gateway
from my Little world into the [G]real world.
[A]But there is no rea[D]l world -

[Verse 5]
We live side by side,
and [G]sometimes [A]collide. [G].
When I [A]was seven[G]teen,
[A]Lon[G]don mea[A]nt Oxford Str[G]eet.
[D]
It was [G]a little [A]wor[D]ld;
I grew up in a [G]little world.
