The billboards, signposts, standing in the way

Bb F Eb

To every day, every day every day

Bb

To every day

Repeat Intro

In the front rooms of old towns far from the city

With beat up guitars and hearts full of pity

The people gather round singing songs from everywhere

Torn from the nation, left without a care

CHORUS

Gm F Gm Bb

And we'll rid the bloody world for a moment in a word

Gm F

And we'll rid the bloody world cos

Eb Bb

The words that you heard when you were young will always stay

F Eb Bb

The one's that always stay make the world go away, go away

Repeat Intro

Warm night, clear sky, European town

Out side the bars singing their hearts out to a crowd

Open boots, violin, banjo and a voice

Exiled buskers, happy with their choice

CHORUS
