Highroyds Lyrics

Track: Highroyds
Tabber: Woodshed
Riff 1 x4
Riff 2 (w/riff 1)
I remember nights out when we were young
They weren't very good, they were rubbish
Running round Highroyds isn't fun
Just teenagers testing their courage
Standing outside nightclubs in the snow
It's not very cool or impressive
They let in all the girls from the year below
No need for IDs with those dresses
Riff 3
Got news from afar
From a girl who knows who were are
She's still got my dinner money
B Riff 3
And she can keep it
Riff 1 x4
Riff 2 (with riff 1)
Never had a fight that we haven't lost
We're not very tough or athletic
Once I had a boxing champ in a headlock
When he gets out I'll regret it
Riff 3
Got keys to a car, picked up a girl from Fosters Bar
B Riff 3
The fast food and the cinema, it's not worth it
Got word from down South, where he had heard it by word of mouth
B Riff 3 x3
Haven't much stayed in touch, since Highroyds
Riff 1 x8
Let it go, let it go, and if I'm wrong then I won't know
Coz no one's gonna tell me but ...
But he has gone and Ian's gone, And everybody went home
And nobody was left here in the end
Got news from Uncle Hue, through his second cousin once removed
B Riff 3
It's too late there's a housing estate, it's called Highroyds
Got a text from an ex, she wants to know when we're in London next
B Riff 3 x3
Will you write a song about me, I don't think so
Riff 1 x4
Riff 2 (with riff 1)
