VERSE 1
********
F G
Now you're all past twenty-one
C E7
We think it's time that you were gone
Am D
Time you started on your own
G C
If you were birds, you would have flown
F G
We've had a talk, your Mom and me
C E7
We're sorry if you don't agree
Am D
You can shout and you can moan
G C
But Mom and me, we're leaving home
E|E|---------------||-----------
VERSE 2
********
F G
You've had the best days of our lives
C E7
So never doubt our love survives
Am D
But when we think of all we've spent
G C
We think we should have charged you rent
F G
We've pushed the trolleys then we've queued
C E7
To fill the fridge and buy the food
Am D
The fridge was empty the next day
G C
So fridge and us, we're on our way
E|E|---------------||-----------
VERSE 3
********
F D
'Cause there's so much we've never seen
G E7
So many places we've not been
Am D
So many dreams we'd like to dream
G C
We'll trade conformity for cream
F D
And if you think we won't get far
G E7
Well, sorry kids, we'll take the car
Am D
You've got ten days, no time to grouse
G C
You see we've gone and sold the house
C F G C E7 Am D G
C F G C E7 Am D G C

VERSE 5
********
F G
You've taken all that we could bring
C E7
You've never wanted for a thing
Am D
In fact you've had it so damn good
G C
You wouldn't leave it when you could
F G
That's why we're taking all TVs
C E7
To share our leisured life of ease
Am D
And in a month, well, more or less
G
You'll get our P.O. Box address
C F C
'Cause we're leaving home
