Verse - 0:20 - 1:11
[E]So here you are in hoxton two years on
Since you [G#m]left that little nowhere that you're from
[A]First few weeks you stayed with your ex
[B]Same old arguements but without the sex
Now you're [E]renting down the road its not so cheap
[G#m]Every weekend police state in the street
[A]Wiry looking kids hoods up eyes down
[B]Weave their bIkes through the arty crowd.
Chorus - 1:11 - 1:25
[A] Now they're [B]squaring [A]up
"What [B]phone you got [A]bruv?"
Yeah they're [B]gonna give you [A]grief
But you still get [B]home in one [E]piece
Verse - 1:25 - 1:53
[E]In the party your mates spot a celebrity
But [G#m]your not fussed by the gay guy off CBBC
[A]Limos ferry hen nights to the west end
The [B]night is dragging its heels till the end
Chorus - 1:53 - 2:18
[A] Now he's [B]in your [A]face
"Got any [B]drugs on ya [A]mate?"
You get [B]out for some [A]peace
Still get [B]home by half-[A]three
Now you're [B]home[A]
Crashing [B]out in your [A]coat
Jet [B]lag from the night [A]bus
Planning [B]your es[E]cape

Bridge - 2:56 - 3:09
[E]No point trying to act all hard
As the [A]kids take the [B]piss as you walk past
[E]No sane place left to go
Your [A]mates wanna try and [B]stop this agro
Chorus - 3:09 - 3:21
[A] Now you [B]tear it [A]up
Just need [B]one night [A]off
Get out of [B]this in one [A]piece
And come h[B]ome for some [A]sleep
Outro - 3:21 - 3:45 (End)
Now you're [B]home[A]
Crash [B]out in your [A]coat
Jet [B]lag from the night [A]bus
And p[B]lan your [C]esc[C#]ape
And thats it. Its pretty much all chords but i put it down as a tab beacause of the solo
the middle. Please rate :D
