Biography:
The Fratellis is an alternative rock band from Glasgow, Scotland who took their name from the villains in the film "The Goonies" (although, by coincidence, Barry's mother's maiden name is in fact Fratelli). The band consisted of lead vocalist and guitarist Jon Fratelli (real name John Lawler), bass guitarist Barry Fratelli (real name Barry Wallace), and drummer, backing vocalist, occasional guitarist and banjo player Mince Fratelli (real name Gordon McRory).

Verse 1:
C E
This place was once a home, but now you're gone.
Am Dm F Fm
Gone like the sun, you took away, it was coming, so they say.
C E
This boy and his heavy heart, were feeling small.
Am Dm F Fm
Kicking around the leaves, it seems, we're so vacant, after all.

Verse 2:
C E
This night, this pretty light, with my best friends.
Am Dm F Fm
Keeping the hounding dogs away, from my window, night and day.
C E
This place was once a home, but now it's still,
Am Dm F Fm
All of the stars are sleeping low, on my broken windowsill.
Chorus 2:
F G C Cmaj7 Am
Won't you let me be, just the old has-been's and me.
D

Rolling in style, be gone for a while,

Pretending to care, oh, going nowhere, floating around,

Nobody's favourite now.
