A A7 A E E7 A From the heart of the Southern Downs, to the North-East London reservoirs, A A7 A E E7 A From the start, the land scaped my sound, before I'd ever been to America. D E A E D And if I knew anybody who played pedal steel guitar, D E A E D I'd get them in my band and then my band would get real far, D E A E D But I was raised in middle England, and not in Nashville Tennessee, D E A And the only person in my band is me. A A7 A E E7 A A simple scale on an old guitar, and a punk rock sense of honesty. A A7 A E E7 A I cannot fail, I've got this far with no knowledge of mid-west geography. D E A E D And if I knew anybody who played pedal steel guitar, D E A E D I'd get them in my band and then my band would get real far, D E A E D But I was raised in middle England, and not in Nashville Tennessee, D E A And the only person in my band is me. Bm D A E Bm And yes I'm in four-four time, and yes I use cheap cheap rhymes, D A But I try to make a sound my own. Bm D A E Bm I know I don't break new ground, many have travelled this sound, D A But I try to make it sound like home. A A Well I've been to Texas state, I didn't think it was that fucking great, D E And Nebraska is just a bunch of songs, A D Holloway and Hampshire where I belong. D E A E D And I don't know anybody who plays pedal steel guitar, D E A E D All the city roads are twisted and I do not own a car. D E A E D I was raised in middle England, and not in Nashville Tennessee, D E A And the only person in my band is me.
