[Verse]
CWell Jamie gets home from work
AmPuts a record on
D7Fixes up the dinner, waits for GLily to come
CShe's been teaching all day
AmShe's got papers to mark
D7She agrees with the kids when it Gcomes to homework
CBut there's a veggie lasagna
AmLeft from last night
D7She could warm it up, do a little Gsalad on the side
CShe lays the table
AmPours two glasses of juice
D7She hears her coming up the stairs, her Gkey goes in the lock
CThen Lily gets home from work
AmKicks off her shoes
D7She smiles at Jamie and it Glights up the room
CShe's just back from the hospital
AmAnother double shift
D7She knew that nursing wasn't gonna be easy, but she Gwasn't expecting this
CIn fact the only thing
AmThat got her through today
D7Was knowing she'd be coming home to GJamie, gay
[Instrumental]
C
[Chorus]
FDancing round the kitchen
GTime is standing still
And for a Fmoment we forget about the Gworries of the G/Cworld
FTeaching and nursing
It's been a Greally long day
But FJamie and Lily count their Gblessings all the G/Csame
[Verse]
CThe rent in Brighton
AmIsn't cheap
D7Which is annoying, because Gthat's where they live
CAnd that's all Jamie wanted
AmWhen she was growing up
D7To move to Brighton, find a Ggirl and fall in love
CThat's exactly how it happened
AmWhen she met Lily
D7Love at first sight and the Grest is history
CJamie went to work
AmTo help pay for Lily's training
D7But they toughed it out together, both Gscrimping and saving
CUntil that final day
AmThey both fully qualified
D7Now just like Jamie, she's Gworking all the time
[Chorus]
FDancing round the kitchen
GTime is standing still
And for a Fmoment we forget about the Gworries of the G/Cworld
FTeaching and nursing
It's been a Greally long day
But FJamie and Lily count their Gblessings all the G/Csame
[Outro]
Well, Fteachers and nurses
Are the Gfabric of society
And Fthey deserve to be treated like CroyalGty
So that's Fhow they treat each other
GJamie and Lily
Because Flove stays Ctrue while the Gworld goes Ccrazy
Oh, Flove stays Ctrue while the Gworld goes Ccrazy

[Intro]

C Am D7 G G6sus4

[Verse]

Well Jamie gets home from work

Puts a record on

D7 G

Fixes up the dinner, waits for Lily to come

She's been teaching all day

She's got papers to mark

D7 G

She agrees with the kids when it comes to homework

But there's a veggie lasagna

Left from last night

D7 G

She could warm it up, do a little salad on the side

She lays the table

Pours two glasses of juice

D7 G

She hears her coming up the stairs, her key goes in the lock

Then Lily gets home from work

Kicks off her shoes

D7 G

She smiles at Jamie and it lights up the room

She's just back from the hospital

Another double shift

D7 G

She knew that nursing wasn't gonna be easy, but she wasn't expecting this

In fact the only thing

That got her through today

D7 G

Was knowing she'd be coming home to Jamie, gay

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

Dancing round the kitchen

Time is standing still

F G G/C

And for a moment we forget about the worries of the world

Teaching and nursing

It's been a really long day

F G G/C

But Jamie and Lily count their blessings all the same

[Verse]

The rent in Brighton

Isn't cheap

D7 G

Which is annoying, because that's where they live

And that's all Jamie wanted

When she was growing up

D7 G

To move to Brighton, find a girl and fall in love

That's exactly how it happened

When she met Lily

D7 G

Love at first sight and the rest is history

Jamie went to work

To help pay for Lily's training

D7 G

But they toughed it out together, both scrimping and saving

Until that final day

They both fully qualified

D7 G

Now just like Jamie, she's working all the time

[Chorus]

Dancing round the kitchen

Time is standing still

F G G/C

And for a moment we forget about the worries of the world

Teaching and nursing

It's been a really long day

F G G/C

But Jamie and Lily count their blessings all the same

[Outro]

Well, teachers and nurses

Are the fabric of society

F C G

And they deserve to be treated like royalty

So that's how they treat each other

Jamie and Lily

F C G C

Because love stays true while the world goes crazy

F C G C

Oh, love stays true while the world goes crazy
