Noah and the Whale Give It All Back Lyrics

These chords are really basic and don't really do justice to the song. Having said that,
its a lot of fun to thrash them out and sing along to.
To make it sound a little more like the original you can mess about with the D & G
chords in the verses, listen to the song and hopefully it should make sense.
INTRO: D - G - D - G x2
VERSE 1:
Oh well the world never seemed bigger
Than the summer of '98
Living out in the suburbs
Planning my escape
I grew my hair to my shoulders
Formed a band with a couple of friends
And we called ourselves The Devils Playhouse
Influences like Bruce and the band
CHORUS:
And we'd sing and play
Simple three chord rock and roll
And miles away
The other kids would just grow old
But we're making our own way out
Yeah we're making our own way out
VERSE 2:
Well we'd practice every week in my bedroom
While my parents were working in town
And one morning in our school assembly
Played a cover of "Don't Let Me Down"
The performance was nervous and awkward
But the passion was real and profound
And the kids in the audience laughing
While the band just looked at the ground
CHORUS 2:
But the victory
For the kids who believe in rock and roll
I know for me
That performance lives, it never grows old
But we're making our own way out
Yeah we're making our own way out
OUTRO:
Well I'd give it all back just to do it again
Yeah I'd turn back time, be with my friends
Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again
Turn back time, be with my friends
Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again
Turn back time and be with my friends
Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again
Turn back time, be with my friends
Tonight
Hope that makes sense/sounds ok. Big Love, J.
