[Intro 1]
[Em][Csus2][Gsus2][G][Gsus2][Em][Csus2]
[D]

[Verse 1]
I [G]was
just a [Gsus2]little boy without ca[G]re[Gsus2][D]
I re[Em]member looking up
and seeing you there
[D]I never wan[C]dered too far
[Bm]from your [Am]sight
'Cause [G]all the [F]love I needed
[C]was there in your [D]eyes

[Verse 2]
We grew [G]up in a war zone [Gsus2]city
with a cast iron [D]wind
Broken [Em]lives, darken streets,
and twisted steel
[D]But[C] around our house
[G]the sky seems so [Am]blue
[G]And on a win[F]g and prayer
[C]we just muddled [D]through
[Bm]And we al

[Verse 3]
[C]ways kept the [G]laughter
and [D]the smile upon [Em]our face
In that [C]good-old-fashion british british [G]british
way [D]with pride and faultless [Am]grace
[G]I shall [C]never forget those [G]childhood
days for as [D]long as I shall [Em]live
And I'll always [Asus4]find my w[A]ay back,
[D]always [Dsus4]find my w[D]ay back home[G][Gsus2]
[G]Tell me

[Verse 4]
why in wars that made
our family strong
As our de[Em]fiant little island
weathered the storm
There [C]never seemed [G]enough
on my [Am]plate
You said be grate[F]ful, say [C]grace,

[Verse 5]
don't complain
[Dsus4]How can I[D] ev[G]er thank[C] you[G]
for the [D]lessons that [Em]I've learnt
And the pre[C]cious warmth and
[G]comfort that [D]I've felt at every [Am]turn
[G]And the ros[C]es sacrific[G]e their
lives for [D]freedom and [Em]for peace
I will [Asus4]always find my wa[A]y back,
[Dsus4]always find my[D] way back ho[G]me

[Verse 6]
[Em]I'll give you [D]stories,
oper[C]ation burning [G]skies
And our [F]na tion with its [C]back
again[D]st [G]the wall
Like a [Em]wide-eyed school [D]school boy
I [C]hang on with the re[G]cord
[Am]Stories I was too young to rec[D]all
[G]And we

[Verse 7]
[C]al ways kept [G]the laughter
and [D]the smile upon [Em]our face
In that [C]good-old-fashion british british [G]brit
ish way [D]with pride and faultless [Am]grace
[G]I shall n[C]ever forget those c[G]hildhood
days for as [D]long as I should [Em]live
And I'll al[Asus4]ways find my w[A]ay back,
al[Dsus4]ways find[D] my way

[Verse 8]
And we [C]always kept the [G]laughter
and [D]the smile upon [Em]our face
In that [C]good-old-fashion british british brit
[G]ish way with [D]pride and faultless [Am]grace
[G]I shall [C]never forget those [G]childhood
days for as [D]long as I should [Em]live
And I'll al[Asus4]ways find my way [A]back,
[Dsus4]always find my wa[D]y back ho[G]me

[Verse 9]
We [G]shall fight on the beaches
We shall fight on the landing
grounds
We shall fight [Em]in the fields,
and in the streets
We shall [D]fight in the hills,
we shall never [G]surrender
