[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
Cadd9 D/F# G
Stumbling three miles home from Stourbridge again
Cadd9 D/F# G
I've spent the whole night getting drunk, singing songs with my friends
Cadd9 D/F# G D/F# Em7
The sun's a few minutes from waking, My mind and my body are aching
Cadd9 D/F#* G
I am weak, I need sleep but even so I don't want it to end
[Verse 2]
Cadd9 D/F# G
Now I can't count the times that I've walked home along this path
Cadd9 D/F# G
By the light of the stars, my guitar safe upon my back
Cadd9 D/F# G D/F# Em7
And these boots they have treated me well , They'd walk through the fires of Hell
Cadd9 D/F#* G D/F#
March me straight through the gates but I'll wait a bit longer for that
[Chorus]
Cadd9 D/F#
And it's taken me too long to see
G D/F# Em7
That this is all I need
Cadd9
My guitar, some dear friends
D/F#*
And a good pair of boots on my feet
G D/F#
[Verse 3]
Cadd9 D/F# G
Now I always take with me much more than I actually need
Cadd9 D/F# G
And until I let go, well I know I can never be free
Cadd9 D/F# G D/F# Em7
I'm just always so scared of the going , Of the wandering around and not knowing
Cadd9 D/F#* G D/F#
Where I am, without a plan and then what's out there waiting for me
[Chorus]
Cadd9 D/F#
And it's taken me too long to see
G D/F# Em7
That this is all I need
Cadd9
My guitar, some dear friends
D/F#*
And a good pair of boots on my feet
G D/F#
Cadd9 D/F#
G D/F# Em7
Cadd9 D/F#
G
[Verse 4]
Cadd9 D/F# G
And those nights are the best when we sit and pass round the guitar
Cadd9 D/F# G
We've been in here since doors but we've got one more song in our hearts
Cadd9 D/F# G D/F# Em7
And though most of the words we've forgot, We'll still try and give it a shot
Cadd9 D/F#* G D/F#
Then we'll gather our money and buy one last drink from the bar
[Chorus]
Cadd9 D/F#
And it's taken me too long to see
G D/F# Em7
That this is all I need
Cadd9
My guitar, some dear friends
D/F#*
And a good pair of boots on my feet
G D/F#
[Chorus]
Cadd9* D/F#*
I'm so glad that I finally see
G* D/F#* Em7*
That this is all I need
Cadd9*
My guitar, some dear friends
D/F#*
And a good pair of boots on my feet
