today might be the day you might make a change 
C                Am
lock yourself indoors and find a getaway 
C                 Am
take a walk outside in the heavy weather 
C                 Am
the british summertime's just great forever 
C               Am
join a local gang and get a cool nickname 
C                    Am
make your lifelong sweetheart your ball and chain 
C                        Am
the pressures are relieved and brought a new religion 
C                   Am
I'll leave the TV on they've gotta ? you when ya 

Am              C                          F
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else 
Am              C                          F
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else 

C                 Am
go put your lucky pounds on the lottery 
C                    Am
if your not in it to win it then you're not on the scene 
C                            Am
there may be space for you in it if you're an outsider 
C                                     Am
but if you're pleased you'll be grinning and you can celebrate 
C                     Am
six months of our lives are at a red light 
C                       Am
but there's a thousand chances to get it right 
C                         Am
So put your foot in a court you'll get a free admission 
C                   Am
I'll leave the TV on they've gotta ? you when ya 

Am              C                          F
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else 
Am              C                          F
waiting for the day you're not looking for something else, for something else 

C, Am


Rip away your ties and find a new squeeze 
show a local steed your generosity
Stand back in the shadows and be a right hand man
By a brand new semi and its all to the Taliban
Who knows whats around the bend
Stay up get drunk with all your best friends
Celebrate your sights are on a new religion
Leave the TV on they gonna ? you  in a
