Cm
Chicken shops with £2 tops
F
We're roaming but can't get enough
Bb
Eating sunshine everyday
Gm7
Accustomed to our South East way
Cm
Cruising in the rainy streets
F
Smoking cigarettes like sweets
Bb
Creamy legs in London air
Gm7
Our hands are up but we still care
Cm F
The blades don't turn
Bb
But you see them from miles and miles
Gm7
And you learn
Cm F
That over here we hide our grief behind smiles
Bb Gm7
And we run around and laugh cos' that's our style
[Chorus]
Cm F
Oh we know
Bb
It's not about where we're living
Gm7
Make the most for a minute
Cm F
Girls can dream, still no
Bb
It's not about where we're living
Gm7 Cm F
Make the most for a minute, ye
Bb
(It's not about where we're living
Gm7 Cm F
Make the most for a minute)
Bb
(It's not about where we're living
Gm7
Make the most for a minute)
[Verse 2]
Cm
Tommy, Shaq, Nathan and Mo
F
"Mum why ain't my brother home?"
Bb
Cradled by a dozen flowers
Gm7
The streets just took another child
Cm F
Ain't it strange that my home
Bb
Had closed before it ever opened
Gm7
Don't you know
Cm F
That over here we hide our grief behind smiles
Bb Gm7
And we run around and laugh 'cause that's our style
[Chorus]
Cm F
Oh we know
Bb
It's not about where we're living
Gm7
Make the most for a minute
Cm F
Girls can dream, still no
Bb
It's not about where we're living
Gm7
Make the most for a minute, ye
[Verse 3]
Cm
There's pain outside
F
There's pain in the art
No time for the worst in me
Bb
Remember finding the email
Gm7
From the penitentiary that locked up Tariq
Cm
They don't have control on us
F
No, they don't have control on we
Bb
They can steal all of our space
Gm7
But if we ain't there then it's cheap
[Chorus]
Cm F
Oh we know
Bb
It's not about where we're living
Gm7
Make the most for a minute
Cm F
Girls can dream, still no
Bb
It's not about where we're living
Gm7 Cm F Bb Gm7
Make the most for a minute, ye
