[Intro]
Em G C Em D D C C
[Verse]
Em G C Em D C
When you come home the neighbours look at you funny
Em G C Em D C
Thank someone, I dunno, maybe God, that you're not new money
Em G C Em D C
So it's up the stairs and lock the world away
Em G C Em D C
And then it's phone off for the rest of the day
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G C Em D
The afternoon is peppered with regret
C
And all the things that you're trying to forget
Em G C
Well just know that you're not on your own
Em D C
No, you're not on your own
[Solo]

[Verse]
Em G C Em D C
Yellow Lambretta is knocked on its side
Em G C Em D C
It's begging you to steal it and go for a ride
Em G C Em D C
Just let me know and I'll meet you in the 17 - th
Em G C Em D
And you can bore me again with how much you love Halloween
C
How much you love Halloween
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G C Em D
Your afternoon is peppered with regret
C
And all the things that you wanna forget
Em G C
Well just know that you're not on your own
Em D C
No, you're not on your own
[Verse]
Em G C Em D
If you've risen just the second that the sun goes down
C
You wash away your sins and feel the pull of the town
Em G C
Know that you're not on your own
Em D C
No, you're not on your own
Em G C Em D
Everyone can hear you but nobody's listening
C
We've got another wedding and another christening
Em G C Em D
We have to go to before we get to the summer
C
Might have to back door it and do another runner
Em G C Em D
Like someone I used to know
C
But please don't go there
[Chorus]
G
Because we're having such a good time
Em D C
Having such a good time
G
We're having such a good time
Em D C
Having such a good time
[Break]
Em G C Em D D C C
[Verse]
Em G C Em D C
The Irish bar is kicking out for the first time
Em G C Em D C
It seems nobody's playing Shanghai like last night
Em G C Em D C
So let's find that place with the pink neon sign
Em G C Em D C
The one that points to you and says 'do you wanna be mine?'
