We can go driving in, on my scooter

Uh, you know, just riding in London
D Bm F#m
[Verse 1]
I love my Dhometown as much as BmMotown, I love F#mSoCal
And you know I love DSpringsteen, faded Bmblue jeans, Tennessee wF#mhiskey
But something Dhappened, I heard him Bmlaughing

They say Dhome is where the heart isBm  
But tF#mhat's not where mine lives
[Chorus]
You know I love a DLondon boy

So I guess Gall the rumors are Atrue
You know I love a DLondon boyBm

And now I love Dhigh tea, stories from BmUni, and the F#mWest End

Babes, F#mdon't threaten me with a good time
They say Dhome is where the heart isBm  
N.C.
But God, I love the English
[Chorus]
You know I love a DLondon boy, I Bmenjoy nights in Brixton
GShoreditch in the afternAoon
He likes my DAmerican smile, like a Bmchild when our eyes meet
