Verse 1:

Oh oh ohh you’ve been needing a place to stay
But watch yourself dont hide away
In a panic you call yesterday
Oh oh ohh well your memory’s been letting you down
You ask for what to do in this town
Like you never saw it coming
Bm (?)
But oh my God

Chorus:

When all these governments take places
That you can never understand
When all these things that you believed in
They never got the upper hand
Well you may find friends in higher places
But you got swallowed by your town
That keeps you hanging around for ages
Just to make sure you keep your head down

Verse 2:

Oh oh ohh you’ve been needing a holiday
To stop yourself from hiding away
In a panic you call yesterday

Oh oh ohh well your memory’s been letting you down
You ask for what to do in this town
Like you never saw it coming

But oh my God

1xChorus
Yeahhhh

But oh my God

1xChorus

A F#m D A played through the entire song

Would you stop talking

Because I don’t think we agree

You’re always keeping all your borders up

I’m thinking something must be wrong with me

Repeat chord progression throughout the rest of the song.

Well I know you don’t like it
You’re no exclusive company
You’re always keeping all your borders up
And it’s a little more than you and me

Oh well I best say something
To stop us creeping ‘round these avenues
You’re always keeping all your borders up
I bet you’re getting a little confused
(I don’t think so)
Well it’s time to turn this thing around
Well there’s no reason for this thing you’ve found
You’re always keeping all your borders up
I think it’s time we tore them all down

Whoa, whoa, oooooh

Whoa, whoa, oooooh

You gotta fight for a reason, what’s your reason? You never cared.

You gotta fight for a reason, what’s your reason? You never cared.

You gotta fight for a reason, what’s your reason? You never cared.

Oh what a shame

(and fade)
