               [ch]Bm[/ch]              [ch]E[/ch]\r\nWe were very far away from anywhere we'd been before[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]   [ch]A[/ch]\r\nWe got on a bus and we went to the city[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]E[/ch]\r\nGot off at a stop because we liked the name[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]D[/ch]\r\nWe were in for an adventure[/tab]\r\n[tab]           [ch]Bm[/ch]              [ch]E[/ch]\r\nAnd that's all

[ch]F#m[/ch]        [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nAnd we woke up with a hunger for life[/tab]\r\n[tab]                [ch]E[/ch]\r\nWell before the sun rised[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]   [ch]A[/ch]\r\nWe didn't have money to ride the underground[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]E[/ch]             \r\nSo we walked the miles and miles of this town[/tab]\r\n[tab]     [ch]D[/ch]\r\nWhen night fell like a rock we

[ch]D[/ch]\r\nWhere some people live on buses[/tab]\r\n[tab]  [ch]D[/ch]           [ch]E[/ch]\r\nInvited us to stay the night[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd we could not refuse[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]D[/ch]                [ch]E[/ch]\r\nWe got a bus of our own[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]A[/ch]   \r\nAnd it had a soft, warm bed[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]D[/ch]              [ch]E[/ch]\r\nWe built a little fire[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd we dried our soaking shoes[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]Bm[/ch]             [ch]E[/ch]\r\nAnd we slept, yeah we slept[/tab]\r\n[tab]                 [ch]A[/ch]\r\nJust like little babies[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]    [ch]A[/ch]\r\nThe next day at Stonehenge[/tab]\r\n[tab]              [ch]E[/ch]\r\nWe couldn't afford to get in[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]D[/ch]\r\nWe thought it would be free, [/tab]\r\n[tab]           [ch]Bm[/ch]                [ch]E[/ch]\r\nWe were surprised to see the fence[/tab]\r\n[tab]     [ch]A[/ch]\r\nThis day would set the theme[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]E[/ch]\r\nOf this trip for you and me[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]D[/ch]\r\nWe could pay to see the sights of Europe[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]Bm[/ch]                 [ch]E[/ch]\r\nOr we could choose to eat[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]       [ch]D[/ch]                    [ch]F#m[/ch]\r\nAnd we pressed on to an old Roman city[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]E[/ch]\r\nAnd we made it before night[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Bm[/ch]                [ch]D[/ch]\r\nWe broke down and bought some fries[/tab]\r\n[tab]     [ch]E[/ch] (single strum)\r\nJust so we could get dry[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]
