D Let me tell you all a little story
G of the things I've found,
D Hanging out and drinking with my
G friends in the cathedral grounds,
D And later dodging drunks as we
G dance along Jewry Street,
D As we wander up town to the
G railway our friends to meet,
D There's something about coming back
Em7 to your hometown again,
G The place where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends,
D And though none of them still live
Em7 here, I've got nowhere to go,
G I'm a Wessex Boy and when I'm here
D I'm home

D Huddling for warmth on the top
G step of the Buttercross,
D Sitting on the benches by the
G bridges at the riverside,
D Of counting down the hours for the
G buses cause I missed my ride
D There's something about coming back
Em7 to your hometown again,
G The place where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends,
D And though none of them still live
Em7 here, I've got nowhere to go,
G I'm a Wessex Boy, a Wessex boy and
Bm when I'm here I'm home
G And one day I will hear this song
Em7 D anonymous and sweet,
Bm G Ringing out from a buskers guitar
Em7 D on the ancient city streets,
Bm G I'll pause a while and smile
Em7 D before I continue on alone,
Em7 And somebody else will sing the
G words and I'll feel like I'm home the 0's here are played fast and quietly (you could probably go without them)

D There's something about hometowns
Em7 you never can escape
G The triumphs and the tragedies, the tawdry little fates
D The welling of nostalgia, the
Em7 feeling kinda strange
G Cause despite all the little changes, this place still feels the same
D There's something about coming back
Em7 to your hometown again,
G The place where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends,
D And though none of them still live
Em7 here, I've got nowhere to go,
G I'm a Wessex Boy, a Wessex boy and
D when I'm here I'm home outro part 1: same as intro
