C/GI Gremember the sickness was forever
Cadd9I Fremember snuff C/Gvideos
Cold GSeptembers
C/GThe distances we covered
The fist fightsCadd9 on the Fbeach
The Bizzies round us C/Gup
Do it all again next Gweek
C/GAn embryonic love
The first time Cadd9that it Fscarred
Embarrass yourself forC/G someone
Crying like a Gchild
C/GAnd the boy who kicked Tom’s head in
Still Cadd9bugs me Fnow
That’s the thing it C/Glingers
And claws you when you’re Gdown
G Cadd9 F C/G
GI was far too scared to hit him
But I would hit him in a Cadd9heartbeat Fnow
That’s the thing with C/Ganger
It begs to stick aroGund
C/GSo it can fleece you of your beauty
And leave you spent with Cadd9nowt to Foffer
It makes you hurt the ones who C/Glove you
You hurt them like they’re Gnothing

GSee I spent my teens enraged
Cadd9Spiralling in Fsilence
And I armed myself with a C/Ggrin
Cause I was always the fuckin' Gjoker
GBuried in their humour
Amongst the white Cadd9noise and Fboys' boys
Locker room talkin' C/Glads' lads
Drenched in cheap drink and Gsnide fags
GA mirrored picture of my old man
Oh God the Cadd9kid’s a Fdab hand
Canny chanter, but he C/Glooks sad
God, the kid looks Gso sad
G Cadd9 F C/G
C/GGod, the kid looks Gso sad
G Cadd9 F C/G
C/GShe said the Gdebt, the debt, the debt
C/GSo I thought about shifting gear
Cadd9And how she Fwept and wept and wept
C/GLuck came and died round here
I see my Gmother
C/GThe DWP see a number
She cries on the Cadd9floor Fencumbered
I’m seventeen going C/Gunder
I’m seventeen going Gunder
