[Verse]
A G
I remember nights when we were young
F A
They weren't very good they were rubbish
G
Running round Highroyds isn't fun
F A
Just teenagers testing their courage
G
Standing outside nightclubs in the snow
F A
Is not very cool or impressive
G
They let in all the girls from the year below
F A
No need for I.D's with those dresses
[Chorus]
B
Got news from afar
G
From a girl who knows who we are
B
She's still got my dinner money
A B C D
She can keep it
[Interlude]
E G A E G A

E G A E G A
E G A E G A
[Verse 2]
A G
Never had a fight that we haven't lost
F A
We're not very tough or athletic
G
Once I had a boxing champ in a headlock
F A
And when he gets out I'll regret it
[Chorus 2]
B
Got keys to a car
G
Picked up a girl from Boston Spa
B
For fast food and the cinema
A B C D
It's not worth it
B
Got word from down south
G
Well he had heard about it word of mouth
B
Haven't much stayed in touch
A B C D
Since Highroyds

[Verse 3]
A
Let it go and let it go
G
And if I'm wrong then I won't know
F A
'Cause no one's gonna tell me but a friend
A
But he has gone and Ian's gone
G
And everybody went along
F A
And nobody was left here in the end
[Chorus 3]
B
Got news from uncle Hugh
G
Through a second cousin once removed
B
It's too late there's a housing estate
A B C D
It's called Highroyds
B
Got a text from an ex
G
She wants to know when we're in London next
B
"And will you write a song about me?"
A B C D
I don't think so
[Outro]
