^CLet me tell you all a little story of the things I've f^Cound, ^CHanging out and drinking with my friends in the cathedral gro^Cunds, ^CAnd later dodging drunks as we dance along Jewry St^Creet, ^CAs we wander up town to the railway our friends to ^Cmeet,

There's ^Csomething about coming back to y^Am7our hometown again, The p^Clace where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends, And though ^Cnone of them still live here, I've^Am7 got nowhere to go, I'm a ^CWessex Boy and when I'm here I'm h^Come

^CLet me tell you all a little story of the things I've lo^Cst, ^CHuddling for warmth on the top step of the Buttercr^Coss, Si^Ctting on the benches by the bridges at the riversid^Ce, ^COf counting down the hours for the buses cause I missed my ri^Cde

There's ^Csomething about coming back to y^Am7our hometown again, The p^Clace where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends, And though ^Cnone of them still live here, I've ^Am7got nowhere to go, I'm a ^CWessex Boy, a Wessex boy and when I'm here I'm h^Emome

And one day I will h^Cear this song a^Am7nonymous and ^Csweet, Ringing ^Emout from a bu^Cskers guitar on the ^Am7ancient city s^Ctreets, I'll p^Emause a while and s^Cmile before I c^Am7ontinue on a^Clone, And s^Am7omebody else will sing the words and I^C'll feel like I'm home

There's s^Comething about hometowns you^Am7 never can escape The t^Criumphs and the tragedies, the tawdry little fates The we^Clling of nostalgia, the ^Am7feeling kinda strange Cause d^Cespite all the little changes, this place still feels the same

There's s^Comething about coming back to ^Am7your hometown again, The p^Clace where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends, And though ^Cnone of them still live here, I've^Am7 got nowhere to go, I'm a ^CWessex Boy, a Wessex boy and when I'm here I'm h^Come
