[Verse 1]
D
On my street
A
There is a man who stands
G
Alone with open hands
G
And it brings me down
D
He say
A
He'll kick the stuff one day
D
Social took him away
G A
But he's back around
[Pre-Chorus]
D A Bm
I don't want to live round here, say no more
G
I'm sure, you probably thought it before
D A Em
Oh but I don't want to live round here, say no more
G A
I'm sure, living in the city, well you know the score
[Chorus]
D
And we all would like a life without no fuss, no fight
A
Counting pennies in your twenties on a Saturday night
Bm G
But don't you worry bout the money, it'll be alright, oh yeah…
D
Cos even if we gotta struggle just to make ends meet
A
When we're standing in the shadows of the cold concrete
Em
We can always pop our collar up and shuffle our feet
G A
To the sunny side of the street
[Interlude]
D G A
[Verse 2]
D
In my school
A
There was a girl who'd say
D
"I'll be a star one day"
G
And it made me smile
D
Last night
A
They had to break her door
D
And found her on the floor
G
She'd been there a while
[Pre-Chorus]
D A Bm
I don't want to live round here, say no more
G
I'm sure, you probably thought it before
D A Em
Oh but I don't want to live round here, say no more
G A
I'm sure, living in the city, well you know the score
[Chorus]
D
And we all would like a life without no fuss, no fight

Counting pennies in your twenties on a Saturday night
Bm G
But don't you worry bout the money, it'll be alright, oh yeah…
D
Cos even if we gotta struggle just to make ends meet
A
When we're standing in the shadows of the cold concrete
Em
We can always pop our collar up and shuffle our feet
G A
To the sunny side of the street
[Bridge]
D
Yeah, we all would like a life without the stress and debts
A
Without the pissheads and the buses and the launderettes
Bm
But the grass is always greener on the next man's lawn
G
And if we had a million quid we'd only piss it up the wall
D
So, forget the having all the best of what they make
A
And make the best of you do have
A
And leave the rest to fate
Em
If you're Bonnie, you can call me Clyde
G A
We can stride to the sunny side, yeah
[Chorus]
D
And we all would like a life without no fuss, no fight
A
Counting pennies in your twenties on a Saturday night
Bm G
But don't you worry bout the money, it'll be alright, oh yeah…
D
Cos even if we gotta struggle just to make ends meet
A
When we're standing in the shadows of the cold concrete
Em
We can always pop our collar up and shuffle our feet
G A
To the sunny side of the street
[Outro]
A
And we say
D A Bm
Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah, Oh Oh Yeaaah
G A D
Always pop our collar to the sunny side of the street
A Em G
Yeah, Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah, Oh Oh Yeaaah
A D G
Sunny side of the street
