[E] [B]
[F#] [E] [B] [G#m]
[E]
[F#] I thought I [G#m] could forever be your passenger, [Bm] as we [B] gently raced beneath the trees of B [D#m]-Rods
and C [G#m]-Rods, watching [E] for fauna [B] and singing along to that classic love CD [G#] we found in
a hired [E] car.
[B]
A [G#m] weekend away from pills and paranoia was the [E] plan, [F#] so we headed for [G#m] familiar territory.
[E]
[B] [G#m]
[C#] [F#]
[Bm] I'm happy when we move,
[F#] [E] I'm [B] happiest in [F#] here.
[B]
But nothing's left to [C#] prove, [F#]
[E] and nothing's [Bm] left to fear.
[E]
[G#m]
I used to [G] swim [E] over there, [B] but the pub's gone [G#m] downhill.
I made [E] my very first [B] and very last attempt at smoking on that [D#m] swing bridge with Gillian [E] Smith.
We all [G#m] love Gillian.
Expelled from school, we [E] crashed a graduate's [B] ball in the function room of that [G#m] hotel, and
I came second [E] last in the treasure [B] hunt.
[G#m]
[F#] [E] I'm happy [Bm] when we [F#] move,
[B] I'm happiest in [F#] here.
[E] [B] But nothing's left to [F#] prove, [B]
and nothing's left to [F#] fear.
[E]
[B] [D] So [F#] let's do it.
Let's sell our home and all [G#m] our things, and buy a camper van, and live on service station
junk food and roadside pub lunches.
[E] We can burn [B] our smartphones [F#] and donate the computer to the school down the road, [G#m] leave
bin bags full of clothes we never [E] wear outside the charity [B] shop, and [F#] just go.
[B] We walk to the shore, and I think I could keep going, but someone deep inside [E] you quietly
screams, [B] it's time [F#] to stand still.
[G#m] [D#m]
[B] And he's right.
[F#] So let's go home.
[B]
[G#m] [B]
What [F#]
we can't build in bricks, I can build in my heart.
We know how it ticks, and we know where to start.
[D#m] If the [F#] foundation's raw, should the wrecking ball swing?
If I [B] misplace my plot, [F#] I'd still lose everything.
[B] Just remember us here, hand in hand by [F#] the shore, and forget each triteer and the [B] burdens we bore.
[E]
[N]
Thank you so much, Eden.
Thank you, mate.
It's really sweet to see you come, and thank you so much.
I am Humber, everyone!
Woo!
Oh, that was exquisite, is the word I'd use.
