Though I can't promise you

To be everything for everyone

Bm
Though it's a struggle when

You can't take everyone away

On a caravan holiday
E A A
To the western edge of Wales

And the beer was warm and the chips were wet

And you were missed a lot
E A A
And we took selfies in your name
[Verse 4]

All those good times that we shared upon the road
Bm E A A
All those struggles disappear
Bm E A F#m
All those troubles in the world in relief
Bm E A A
Given friendship, never shiver
[Verse 5]
Bm
You know I'm as reliable
E A F#m
As asking a seal to deliver the post
Bm
Or a random Pokémon
E A A
To remember the number of your phone
Bm
And though I'm a bad friend
E A F#m
Yes, I'm a really, really bad friend
Bm
Just know I'm well meaning
E A A
And I'm still be here at the end
