Biography:
The Bluetones are an indie rock formed in Hounslow, England in 1994, featuring Mark Morriss (vocals, keyboards & occasional guitar), Adam Devlin (guitars), Scott Morriss (bass guitar & backing vocals), and Eds Chesters (drums)
Classed as a Britpop band, given that their appearance and initial huge success with songs such as Slight Return coincided synchronously with the Britpop explosion, their debut record Expecting To Fly appeared in 1996.

A E F#m
if you get out before September
C#m D A
remember that I'm still inside
B E
but I'm dry I'm dry
A E F#m
and you when you try to make a difference
C#m D A
you're so different and then I try
B E
and just die I die
A E
she knows that I need
F#m
you more than I want ya
C#m D
but I want ya for all time
A
so I'm I guess on the line.
[chorus]
D A
its all that I can do to sing-these stupid songs to you
D A
I give up half my time just trying-to think up words that rhyme
D A F#m
I aint getting any younger but you wouldn't know
G E
so its on with the show
[verse]
A E F#m
Some times a smoke a drink and a ponder
C#m D
can work wonders when you're down
A B E
takes your frown turns it round around
A E F#m
and you when you try to make a difference
C#m D A
you're no different than when I try
B E
and just die I die
A E F#m
and now that your day dream is forgotten
C#m D
and forgiven and the world
A
has been saved be brave
[chorus]
D A
its all that I can do to sing these stupid songs to you
D A
I give up half my time just trying to think up words that rhyme
D A F#m
I aint getting any younger but you wouldn't know
G F#m
cos i wooo...on't live in your shadow
G F#m
and i never ever ever really showed my face
G
but i'm only ever see in the right place
