[Verse 1]
G
I was born in a land of grace
                                   C
That I left behind up a long dark road
G
And I like the noise of an urban place
         Em                 C
But the city life is not my own


[Verse 2]
G
Its been a while since I walked this beats
                             C
And I can't remember where to go
G
And the sunny side of a Glasgow street
Em                     C
Passed me by some time ago


[Bridge]
Am   C
Oh, oh oh oh
Am        C
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh


[Chorus]
G                                          C
So get up, get up you're standing on solid ground
G                      Em              C             D
Restless nights in the city lights are all behind us now
G                                                    C
And the sun only shines so bright when your homeward bound
Am                                             G
Its been four long years since I left this town

G


[Verse 3]
G
Street lights shaking in the wind
                             C
Sandstone red on a tenement wall
G
Highs a multitude of sins
Em                              C
For cowering men who once stood tall


[Bridge]
Am   C
Oh, oh oh oh
Am      C
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh


[Chorus]
G                                          C
So get up, get up you're standing on solid ground
G                      Em              C             D
Restless nights in the city lights are all behind us now
G                                                    C
And the sun only shines so bright when your homeward bound
Am
Its been four long years since I left this town


[Break](As Chorus)
G                                        C
G                     Em               C             D
G                                                    C
Am                                            G
G


[Verse 4]
G
So brothers there's an open sky
                           C
But I can't walk this path alone
G
Arm and arm and eye to eye
    Em                      C
Our sentience will guide us home


[Bridge]
Am   C
Oh, oh oh oh
Am      C
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh


[Chorus]
G                                          C
So get up, get up you're standing on solid ground
G                      Em              C             D
Restless nights in the city lights are all behind us now
G                                                    C
And the sun only shines so bright when your homeward bound
Am
Its been four long years since I left this town

G                                          C
So get up, get up you're standing on solid ground
G                      Em              C             D
Restless nights in the city lights are all behind us now
G                                                    C
And the sun only shines so bright when your homeward bound


[Outro]
Am
Its been four long years since I
C               G
