Biography:
Levellers is a popular English rock band influenced by punk and traditional English music. The band is based in Brighton, England, where they were founded in 1988. There are several stories regarding how they got their name; from the Levellers, a radically democratic faction of Oliver Cromwell's New Model Army; as a reference to "The Level", a flat open space near where members of the band used to live in Brighton; or simply, according to guitarist, Simon Friend, a word they chose from a dictionary.

Leave This Town - Levellers *tabbed by trixywoo*
INTRO:
Bm G (D) A x4
VERSE I:
Bm G A
Wasting time at nowhere very special
Bm G A
Seems almost a part of it these days
Bm G A
I know every crack along the pavement
Bm G A
I remember what you said in '88
CHORUS:
E A
You said "It's time to leave this town
E A
The world keeps turning 'round
Bm G A
The only thing that keeps me here is you"
E A
You said "It's time to leave this town
E A
The world keeps turning 'round
Bm G A
The only thing that keeps me here is you"
Bm G A x2
VERSE II:
So I'm drinking in the same bar where I met you
Without you it wouldn't be the same
We talk for hours and hours 'bout different places
You said that you would see them all some day
(CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
A E D
You were always so good with words
A E D
The tales you told we've heard
A E D
The things you said to me that day
A E
Will never fade in memory
D
But time is unforgiving
Bm G A
You know that I will make it when I can
Bm G A x3
VERSE III:
No matter just what window you look out of
The view just never ever seems to change
And I swear that we ain't getting any younger
But we'll chase all of our dreams all the same
(CHORUS)
Bm G A
Just another lonely winter's day ...
