      [Intro]
G D Em D C D G    

[Verse 1]
G                  D
One day there will come a time when the 
Em              D
person you are named after
C                    D                      G
dies and all of a sudden you're the only one left 
    G                   D              
And out of something as insincere as pride 
Em                    D
   You'll change the way you turned on 
C                       Cmaj7            
time to remember the smiles 
D               Dsus4
            As we stood out front of the 
   G              D
little church
Em                      D
      The traffic just close enough to 
C              Cmaj7
drown out                   Whatever we 
C                Cmaj7
heard the family say as they 
D                   Dsus4
waved the hearse away 

[Chorus]
      G
And tonight I'm getting young drunk 
C
  Walking down the streets where I grew 
Em 
up. Knowing that they're to 
C                            D
blame it All the red brick fences look the 
G
same. I'm getting young drunk 
C
   Walking round the streets where I grew 
Em                         
up. Knowing that they're to 
C                            D
blame it. All the red brick fences look the 
G      C     Em     C  D
same.

[Verse 2]
G            D
   And all alone in the suburbs
Em         D
   I can make as much noise as I 
C                  Cmaj7
want without disturbing more than the 
D             Dsus4
wind in the trees and
G                    D
Passing cars and security lights 
Em                   D
Guide my way home through the night and it feels
C               Cmaj7
   safe here 
D                          Dsus4
  And the neighbours aren't close enough to 
C         Cmaj7       D        Dsus4
hate me 

[Chorus]
      G
And tonight I'm getting young drunk 
C
  Walking down the streets where I grew 
Em 
up. Knowing that they're to 
C                            D
blame it All the red brick fences look the 
G
same. I'm getting young drunk 
C
   Walking round the streets where I grew 
Em                         
up. Knowing that they're to 
C                            D
blame it. All the red brick fences look the 
G      C     Em     C  D
same.
G C C Em Em D Dsus4

[Verse 3]
           G
And I've finally found a home 
       C  
In a handful of people I was lucky enough to 
      Em
bump into We act like pessimists but 
          D             Dsus4
we're in love with it 
    G
And I'm in love with you 
       C
And our tiny bed in the upstairs front room 
     Em
Of a rundown terrace house 
        D                               Dsus4
Which is obviously perfect as it sounds 

[Bridge]
G            D
Even in the summer
          Em               D
When the cardboard window that you tape on 
  C            Cmaj7
everyday falls out and 
D           Dsus4
wakes us up 

[Chorus]
      G
And tonight I'm getting young drunk 
C
  Walking down the streets where I grew 
Em 
up. Knowing that they're to 
C                            D
blame it All the red brick fences look the 
G
same. I'm getting young drunk 
C
   Walking round the streets where I grew 
Em                         
up. Knowing that they're to 
C                            D
blame it. All the red brick fences look the 
G      C     Em     C  D
same.

[Outro]
G D Em D C  D                   G
               All alone in the suburbs
