[Verse]

C                  C/B
I moved to town at 23
Am                     Gadd4
And launched myself in society
D                        Dsus2
From a squat in Archway, N19
F             G
Looking for a thrill
C                   C/B
I fell in love with Ecstasy
Am                      Gadd4
Which seemed to fuel my vanity
D                     Dsus2
I swore to write just poetry
F               G
And live upon a hill

[Chorus]

F         C            Dm  C   
It wasn't her my love,      it was 
G
me
F       C    G             Am
Looking for another way to see
F            G               C
Looking for another place to be

[Verse]

C                  C/B
I sang my songs of Birmingham
Am            Gadd4
How did you relate to them?
D                    Dsus2
Did you dig the proleterian way
F         G
I got it wrong?
C               C/B
I bet you never thought I'd dream of
 you
Am                 Gadd4
More than that I'd fall for you
D            Dsus2
Walk just to bump into you
F                         G
Like you bumped into this song


[Chorus]

F         C            Dm  C   
It wasn't her my love,      it was 
G
me
F       C    G             Am
Looking for another way to see
F            G               C
Looking for another place to be

[Verse]

C                 C/B
And I'd betray my childhood
Am              Gadd4
Betray my class if I could
D                  Dsus2
For a moment truly understood
F             G
A reason to believe
C             C/B
In ornamental flower beds
Am                  Gadd4
There in blooms the memory
D                           Dsus2
Of all those who can't come back to 
me
F                    G
The love we have to leave


[Chorus]

F         C            Dm  C   
It wasn't her my love,      it was 
G
me
F       C    G             Am
Looking for another way to see
F            G               C
Looking for another place to be

F         C            Dm  C   
It wasn't her my love,      it was 
G
me
F       C    G             Am
Looking for another way to see
F            G               C
Looking for another place to be
