Badly Drawn Boy is Damon Gough, born October 2, 1969 in Dunstable, Bedfordshire, although the family moved to Bolton, Lancashire before Gough reached the age of one. Gough chose his stage name from a character that appeared in the cartoon show "Sam and His Magic Ball" which he saw on TV at a party in Trafford, Manchester in 1995. Before he thought of using this name he made some 'business cards', each one unique, with a printed picture of a drawing by his nephew, and a small collage by Gough.

CAmCAm The way things used to be, well not anymore FCC/BAm Close your eyes, open up your door CAmCAm Well I’m not tired, I’m coming alive CC/BAmGF But you make up on, let’s go out tonight
CC/BAmGF CC/BAmC C
C These things don’t matter now AmF We can leave it all behind C That’s all depending on AmF If you’re free to free your mind
GAmF The crucifix still hung up by the door GAmF But Jesus doesn’t come here anymore GAmF Those memories still hanging on the wall GAmF But people there don’t look like us at all
CC/BAmGF Don’t need reminding of CC/BAMC The way things used to be
C I race you to the top AmF Then we walk back down again C Look to the future now AmF Where you’re going, where you’ve been
GAmF The universe is smaller than you think GAmF So many years spent blind and then you blink GAmF I promise you we're meant to suffering GAmF If you could be my queen, I’ll be your king
CC/BAmGF Don’t need reminding of CC/BAMC The way things used to be

GAmF Take this chance to rest your tired eyes GAmF Come with me, we’ll move to better skies GAmF If where we go don’t make a difference GAmF Just turn around and we’ll come back again
CC/BAmGF Don’t need reminding of CC/BAMC The way things used to be
