A I've never seen but I still believe it
I'd like to F#dig it out or maybe wrench it out
A There's no touching
But there's not much involved in F#casting doubt
Too hard to think about.
DI'd relate my thoughts to C#myou
But I'm not that F#mstupid to put Emy faith in Dyou.
AOoh-ooh Dah-ah Gooh____D_____
AOoh-ooh Dah-ah GI'll keep Dsearching even more.
AOoh-ooh Dah-ah Gooh____D_____ E
A Lord have mercy on me
Keep me away from Leeds
I've F#been before; it's not what I'm looking for
A There's no touching
But there's not much involved in F#casting doubt
No need to think about.
DI'd relate my thoughts to C#myou
But I'm not that F#mstupid to put Emy faith in Dyou.
AOoh-ooh Dah-ah Gooh_____D______
AOoh-ooh Dah-ah GLord, I'm Dsearching, searching
AOoh-ooh Dah-ah Gooh been Dlooking here for more.
AOoh-ooh Dah-ah Gooh_____D______ E
A I've walked around, seen the town with the crowds
With their C#mfrowns on their faces
And occasional traces of doubt
A I've walked about, worked it out, pissed about
Tried to C#mshout,
No one's listening. Cm
Bm It's all you your rules and fools.
D And it's all you and your schools their tools, then. E
Lord have mercy on me
Keep me away from Leeds
I've been before; not what I'm looking for
There's no touching
But there's not much involved in casting doubt
No need to think about.
I'd relate my thoughts to you,
But I'm not that stupid to put my faith in you.
Ooh-ooh ah-ah ooh_____________
Ooh-ooh ah-ah Lord, been looking, looking here for more.
Ooh-ooh ah-ah ooh_____________
I've walked around, seen the town with the crowds
With their frowns on their faces
And occasional traces of doubt
I've walked about, worked it out, pissed about
Tried to shout,
No one's listening.
It's all you and your rules and fools.
And it's all you and your discos, your fists don't count, count.
Chorus to fade.
