           E5
I left the North

I traveled South

I found a tiny house
  A5              B5        E5
I can~t help the way I feel
A5      B5         E5
oh yes you can kick me

and you can punch me

and you can break my face
        A5                B5        E5
but you won~t change the way i feel
A5             E5
Cause i love you


          G#5    C#5 F#5     B5    E5
And is it really so  strange?
          G#5    C#5 F#5     B5    E5
Oh, is it really so  strange?
          G#5        C#5       F#5     B5 - Bb5 - A5
Oh, is it really so, really so strange?
                  B5
I say NO, you say YES
                    D5
(but you will still change your mind)


    D5 - Eb-  E5
I left the South

I traveled North

I got confused- I killed a horse
  A5              B5        E5
I can~t help the way I feel
A5       B5        E5
Oh yes, you can punch me

and you can buck me

and you can break my spine
        A5                B5       E5
but you won~t change the way I feel
A5             E5
Cause I love you


          G#5    C#5 F#5     B5    E5
And is it really so  strange?
          G#5    C#5 F#5     B5    E5
Oh, is it really so  strange?
          G#5        C#5       F#5     B5 - Bb5 - A5
Oh, is it really so, really so strange?
                  B5
I say NO, you say YES
                                D5
(but you will still change your mind)


D5 - D5 - Eb5 - E5

E5    E5    A5    B5

           E5
I left the North again

I left the South again

I got confused- I killed a nun
  A5              B5       E5
I CAN~T HELP THE WAY I FEEL
  A5              B5       E5
I CAN~T HELP THE WAY I FEEL
  A5              B5       E5
I CAN~T HELP THE WAY I FEEL
A5                         E5
(I lost my bag in Newport Pagnell)


           G#5  C#5      F#5     B5    E5
Why is the last mile the hardest mile
   G#5        C#5           F#5         B5    E5
My throat was dry, with the sun in my eyes
      G#5     C#5    F#5   B5 - Bb5 - A5
And I realised, I realised 

That I could never
        B5                   D5      D5 - D5 - Eb5 - E5
I could never, never, never go home again
