[Intro]
C G Am F 4x
[Verse]
C
I've done with being brave
Dm F C
And oh how we slaved to pave our way
G F
And only to be dropped upon this quay
G C C
And only to be press-ganged overseas
C Dm F
Is this the end of the begining or the begining of the end
C G
And these miserable strangers will be the making of our friends
F G
They've been dropped upon this quay
C C
Just the same as you and me
[Verse]
C Dm F
With each step forward there's two looks back
C
Are you so bewildered inside
G F
But you know we'll have the new life that we talked of loud and proud
G C C
Hack them high and hold them dear
C Dm F
For we'll soon forget these faces in the crowd blurred by our tears
C
And yet we'll miss them year on year
G F
So let's pull ourselves together like the others
G
We'll throw our hats into the air
C G Am F
And try to raise a hearty cheer
[Instrumental]
C G Am F 2x
[Chorus]
C G Am F
And at the back of my mind and I was always hoping I might just get by
C G Am F
At the back of my mind and I was always hoping I might just get by
C G Am F
Always hoping I might just get by
C G Am F
At the back of my mind I was always hoping I might just get by
C G Am F
At the back of my mind I was always hoping I might just get by
C G Am F
Always hoping that I might just get by
C G Am F C
Always hoping that I might just get by
