B 
Well, oh they might wear classic Reeboks 
B 
Or knackered Converse 
B 
Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks 
E 
But all of that's what the point is not 
                                Em 
The point's that there ain't no romance around there 
B 
And there's the truth that they can't see 
B 
They'd probably like to throw a punch at me 
B      E 
And if you could only see them, then you would agree 
Em 
Agree that there ain't no romance around there
[Refrain]
    G#m             F#m7 
You know, oh it's a funny thing you know 
      E 
We'll tell 'em if you like 
      Em 
We'll tell 'em all tonight 
              B 
They'll never listen 
              G#m 
Because their minds are made up 
    C#m                     F#                 B 
And course it's all okay to carry on that way
[Strophe]
B 
'Cause over there there's broken bones 
B 
There's only music, so that there's new ringtones 
E 
  And it don't take no Sherlock Holmes 
                     Em 
To see it's a little different around here 
B 
Don't get me wrong, oh there's boys in bands 
B 
And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands 
E 
And just cause he's had a coupla cans 
                          Em 
He thinks it's alright to act like a dickhead
[Refrain]
          G#m             F#m7 
Don't you know, oh it's a funny thing you know 
      E 
We'll tell 'em if you like 
      Em 
We'll tell 'em all tonight 
              B 
They'll never listen 
              G#m 
Because their minds are made up 
    C#m                     F# 
And course it's all okay to carry on that way  
           G#m 
But I said no 
   F#m7 
Oh no! 
         E               Em 
Well you won't get me to go! 
B             G#m 
Not anywhere, not anywhere 
      C#m       F# 
No, I won't go 
          B 
Oh no no!
[Strophe]
B 
Well, over there there's friends of mine 
B 
What can I say, I've known 'em for a long long time 
E 
And yeah, they might overstep the line 
                       Em               B 
But I just cannot get angry in the same way 
B 
No, not in the same way 
                 E 
Said in the same way 
             Em 
Oh no, oh no no
