[Intro]
Dm - D - Dm - D
[Verse 1]
Dm D
She moved from Clapham, and didn't look back
D
Her life was changed in an instant
Dm D
The van was filled up and tied to the rack
D
Her home that now seemed so distant
[Verse 2]
Dm E
Kissing good-bye to her friends on the stairs
A# G
She felt a loss deep within her
D# C
Sat in the front seat with stuff every-where
F A
The neighbours said they would ring her
[Verse 3]
Dm D
They moved to the sea front and loved their new view
D
Of tides coming in on the shingle
Dm D
She and her daughter found new things to do
D
At last it was good to be single
[Verse 4]
Dm E
And in the summer, the place came a-live
A# G
Lights on the pier in the evening
D# C
The fresh sea air and could cut with a knife
F A
It was such a wonderful feeling
[Verse 5]
A C#m
She worked in a pub where bands would appear
G Bm
On a tiny stage in the corner
F C
She watched them load in with tattered old gear
Em D
The place would get like a sauna
A C#m
London had gone now, her new life was strong
G Bm
She found herself a new karma
F C
She fell for a man who played in a band
Em D
And took her life from his drama
[Verse 6]
Dm D
She moved from Clapham, and didn't look back
D
The past was neatly extinguished
Dm D
He was much younger but she lived with that
D
He struggled hard with his english
Dm E
She felt his loving and proudly re-claimed
A# G
All of the warmth she'd been lacking
D# C
They lay in bed looking out at the rain
F A
No more moving or packing
[Outro]
Dm
She moved from Clapham
D
And didn't look back
D A
Her life had changed in an instant
