Verse 1:
F                   C
So Jonny was a good man
      G                     Am
Armed with the power of his Homeland
F                                                  C
And with his boots laced tight and a ticket in his hand,
      G              Am
Never to return home again

F                                  C
So he lost what he knows, and what all is right
      G                            Am
For a broken world, and a world of lies,
F                            C
But the days where numbered, relationships suffered
        G                      Am
He lost the faith of all those who mattered so

Verse 2:
F                             C
So Jesse thought that she was all that,
        G                      Am
Thought she was heading on the right track
F                                C
Her mates sat at the gate as she walked away
G             Am
Never to look back again

So she lost what she knows and what all is right
      G                      Am
For a brand new image, and a world of lies
        F                   C
But the day where numbered, relationships suffered
    G                               Am
She lost the faith of all those who mattered so
