The Great Escape (acoustic)
Dtoday might be the Bmday you might make a change
Dlock yourself indBmoors and plan a getaway
Dtake a walk outsidBme in the heavy weather
Dthe British summerBmtime's just great forever
Djoin a local ganBmg and get a cool nickname
Dmake your lifelong swBmeetheart your ball and chain
Dconvert your self belief Bmto a new religion
Dor leave the TV on, mBmake a decision when you're
Bmwaiting for the Dday you're not looking for Gsomething else, for something else
Bmwaiting for the Dday you're not looking for Gsomething else, for something else
Dgo put your last 5 Bmpounds on the lottery
Dif you're not in it to Bmwin it then you won't receive
Dthen place all your winnings Bmon an outsider
Dif it wins you'll be grinning and you Bmcan celebrate
Dsix months of our liveBms are at a red light
Dbut there's a thousand cBmhances to get it right
DSo put your foot in the doBmor cos it's free admission
DI'll leave the TV on, Bmthey've gotta ? you when ya
Bmwaiting for the Dday you're not looking for Gsomething else, for something else
Bmwaiting for the Dday you're not looking for Gsomething else, for something else
D Bm
Rip away your ties and find a new squeeze
Show a local scheme your generosity
Stand back in the shadows and be a right hand man
Buy a brand new semi next door to the Taliban
Who knows what's around the bend
Stay up get drunk with all your best friends
Celebrate your side to a new division
Leave the TV on, make a decision when you're
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else
