Did the ironing in a cowboy hat
        D                      G
Felt as fresh as the paint in this new flat
I will never tell you what to do
Have ambition simply to see things through
         D                       G
Did you know I could be a lot of fun
     D                     G
I'm aware that friendship can die young
As the glow from the street light bled
Down the Langlands Road we set off the best of friends
G                D
I know where I stand
G                           D      A
I don't need you to hold my hand

Well, I've tried to get along with you
I have asked myself ?What are we gonna do??
I'm coming round to take a stand
Going to put us together with glue or an elastic band

I know where I stand
I don't need you to hold my hand

I am softer than my face would suggest
At times like these I'm at my lowest ebb
Now I can confide in you
If I cry to set the mood oh please could you cry too

Happy New Year
                 G
You are my only vice
                   D
What if we compromised?
       G
I am open

        D           G
Do you want to? (Yes I do)
Do you have to? (So do you)
Do you want to? (So do you)
Do you have to?
