A
We got off the plane in the cold, cold rain
E
Lost track of the hour, lost track of the day
D Bm E
We were very far away from anywhere we'd been before
A
We got on a bus and we went to the city
E
Got off at a stop because we liked the name
D
We were in for an adventure
Bm E
And that's all we knew for sure
D F#m E
And we walked until we couldn't walk no more
Bm E (single strum)
Jet lag and sore feet led us to the door
A
Of an expensive noisy bed
E
Where we could rest our heavy heads
D
We slept away the rest of the day
Bm E
And well into the night
A F#m Bm
And we woke up with a hunger for life
E
Well before the sun rised
A
We didn't have money to ride the underground
E
So we walked the miles and miles of this town
D
When night fell like a rock we realized
Bm E A
We were never gonna find a patch of open ground
E
And the rain was comin' down
D
And the trains were shuttin' down
Bm
We were worn out, wet and lost
E A
There was no shelter to be found
A E Bm E A E A F#m (single strum)
D E
A
We spent over a week of our budget
E
On a taxi and a bed
D
And we made plans at night to escape
Bm E
This expensive wonderland
A
We would set out for the wild
E
We would see what was beyond
D
We would sleep above the soil
Bm E
And we would travel by our thumbs
D E
And written above my hostel bed
A F#m
In black marker it said
D
"There's a light
E A
And it never goes out"
A
We didn't have a clue what we were doin'
E
We didn't even know where we wanted to go
D
The next day we took the tube all the way
Bm E
Out to the end of the line
A
It took us five hours to find a place to stand
E
We stuck out our thumbs, we raised our hands
D
It was rainin' hard again
Bm E
But we were not surprised
D F#m
No one wants to pick you up
E
When you're soakin' wet
Bm D
It was hard not havin' second thoughts
E (single strum)
About goin' on this trip
D A
And we ate the rest of our hostel bread
D A
Under a dark, damp underpass
D A
We watched the cars go past
D A
The sun was sinking fast
D A
But salvation came at last
D A
In a little blue hatchback
E D A
And he took us a few miles down the road
A
The day was almost over
E
It was hard not to give in
D
We had made it outta the city
Bm E
We were thinkin' about givin' up and settin' up our tent
A
But a Jeep pulled over then
E
And he told us to get in
D
He said his name was Nick
Bm E (single strum)
Right away he felt just like a friend
D E
And he took us to some land
A D
Where some people live on buses
D E
Invited us to stay the night
A
And we could not refuse
D E
We got a bus of our own
A
And it had a soft, warm bed
D E
We built a little fire
A
And we dried our soaking shoes
Bm E
And we slept, yeah we slept
A
Just like little babies
A
The next day at Stonehenge
E
We couldn't afford to get in
D
We thought it would be free,
Bm E
We were surprised to see the fence
A
This day would set the theme
E
Of this trip for you and me
D
We could pay to see the sights of Europe
Bm E
Or we could choose to eat
D F#m
And we pressed on to an old Roman city
E
And we made it before night
Bm D
We broke down and bought some fries
E (single strum)
Just so we could get dry
D A D A D A
And curse the sky, curse the sky, curse the sky
E A
It rains all the time
A
We found a spot to pitch our tent
E
It was our first night in it
D
The rain soaked in, the ground was cold
Bm E
It sank into my bones
A F#m Bm
And we decided that it was way too cold
E
To keep goin' the way we had planned to go
A E
And that night we agreed that we would turn around
D Bm E
We'd head for warmer ground, we'd start makin' our way south
D E A D
Oh you can't get lost if you've got no place to go
D E A D
You can't take a wrong turn if you're not on your way home
Bm D E A
And we realized just how free we really were
