If you ain't bombed in Birmingham then you ain't one of us

We don't really give a damn

London is a hundred miles away from where we're at

And a thousand years behind

Splittin' from a sorry gig that left us feelin' flat
A A7 D
Outta sight and outta mind

Cruisin' through the countryside we'll never see again

Ain't it lonesome out tonight

Outta mind and outta sight

E A
Well I've been everywhere and I seen everything there is
D
But I never saw the light
E A
Scared to death of dyin' so I do my best to live
D A
Outta mind and outta sight
E A
Knowin' no one nowhere's gonna miss us when we're gone
D
Let's keep drinkin' 'til we're blind
E A
Everybody's sleepin' and I'm stuck inside a zone
D A
Outta sight and outta line, outta line
E7 A
Someday when it's over and it's time to settle down
D
And we've left it all behind
E A
We can sit and wonder how we ever got around
D A
Outta sight and out of mind
D A
Outta sight and outta mind
