[Verse 1]
E Well, oh, they might wear classic Reeboks or knackered Converse A Or tracky bottoms stucked in socks (A) But all of that's what the point is not Am The point's that there ain't no romance around there
E And there's the truth that they can't see (E) They'd probably like to throw a punch at me A And if you could only see them, then you would agree Am Agree that there ain't no romance around there
[Chorus]
C#mBm You know, oh, it's a funny thing, you know? A We'll tell them if you like Am We'll tell them all tonight E They'll never listen C#m Because their minds are made up F#mB * And 'f course it's all OK to carry on that way
[Verse 2]
E 'Cause over there there's broken bones A There's only music, so that there's new ringtones (A) And it doesn't take no Sherlock Holmes Am To see it's a little different around here
E Don't get me wrong though there's boys in bands A And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands (A) And just cause he's had a couple of cans Am He thinks it's alright to act like a dickhead
[Chorus]
C#m * Bm * Don't you know, oh, it's a funny thing, you know? A * We'll tell them if you like Am * We'll tell them all tonight E * They'll never listen C#m * Because their minds are made up F#m * B * And 'f course it's all OK to carry on that way
C#m* But I said no, Bm * Oh no! A * Am * Well you won't get me to go EA Not anywhere, not anywhere (A) Am ... E Oh, yeah
