stAmrange as it may seem
I Conce F/Chad my football dreams
but I was always the lC+6ast one
the last to get choCsen
when my clCassmates picked their teams
I guess tAmhat was the way it stayed
C in F/Cevery game I played
life just C+6kicked me
and clattered and trCipped me
til you pCicked from the parade
now I fEmeel like I've won the cup
every tAmime that we make love
forty fF/Cive minutes each way
at halftCime I hear a brassband plEmay
[chorus]
the F/Cboy done good
the gCirl done better
Amseasons turnC, F/Cwe're still together
tF/Che sky's still blue
Ctomorrow is another dAmay C
You weren't that kind of a bird who
likes her studs to be covered in mud
Taking you to the pictures was a regular fixture
For one of life's eternal subs
I tried hard acting tough
but I just can't stand the taste of that stuff
Like some macho park player I got in the way of
In some grudge match against his pub
But I'm happier than I am today
now I've put my boots away
I guess I'll never get picked to play my
song on Match of the Day
[chorus] x 2
