The great escape (accoustic)

(There's a bit of guess work gone on with some of the lyrics. Any corrections are welcome!!!)

D                  Bm
today might be the day you might make a change 
D                Bm
lock yourself indoors and find a getaway 
D                 Bm
take a walk outside in the heavy weather 
D                 Bm
the british summertime's just great forever 
D               Bm
join a local gang and get a cool nickname 
D                    Bm
make your lifelong sweetheart your ball and chain 
D                        Bm
the pressures are relieved and brought a new religion 
D                   Bm
I'll leave the TV on they've gotta ? you when ya 

Bm              D                          G
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else 
Bm              D                          G
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else 

D                 Bm
go put your lucky pounds on the lottery 
D                    Bm
if your not in it to win it then you're not on the scene 
D                            Bm
there may be space for you in it if you're an outsider 
D                                     Bm
but if you're pleased you'll be grinning and you can celebrate 
D                     Bm
six months of our lives are at a red light 
D                       Bm
but there's a thousand chances to get it right 
D                         Bm
So put your foot in a court you'll get a free admission 
D                   Bm
I'll leave the TV on they've gotta ? you when ya 

Bm              D                          G
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else 
Bm              D                          G
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else 

D, Bm


Rip away your ties and find a new squeeze 
show a local steed your generosity
Stand back in the shadows and be a right hand man
By a brand new semi and its all to the Taliban
Who knows whats around the bend
Stay up get drunk with all your best friends
Celebrate your sights are on a new religion
Leave the TV on they gonna ? you  in a

waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else 
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else
