Biografía:
Gavin Osborn's plan for his second record was to make an upbeat album, filled with positive songs to perk us all up in these troubled times. But the plan failed, and 'Meeting Your Heroes' is essentially about love, heartbreak and nostalgia. Which is far better. Featuring a collection of live favourites including 'Charlie's 18th Birthday'', 'Sweet Bedford' and 'FM2030', the story of the famous cryogenically-frozen futurist.
Previously, Gavin has written for and performed on BBC Radio 4 and Resonance FM.

VERSE:
A D A Asus4 A
Who told you folk music was yours
A D A Asus4 A
Is it something you heard in the chords
F#m
Did you dig up our roots
F#m
From the fiddle and the flute
A D A Asus4 A
Or was it the ghost of Saint George
A E A Asus4 A
Who told you folk music was yours
VERSE:
A D A Asus4 A
Who showed you your family tree
A D A Asus4 A
'Cause those branches are broken you see
F#m
Did your nationalist pain
F#m
Spring from Celts and Danes
A D A Asus4 A
Or was it our half German queen
A E A Asus4 A
Who showed you your family tree
PRE-CHORUS:
F#m
Playing Bellowhead backwards
F#m A
Do you Anglo Saxons all hear
E
A subliminal code and
F#m
Is your whole agenda
F#m A
Mapped out by the end of the spinning reel
E
By Spears and Bowden
CHORUS:
D
Or do you see a country
E
Draped in red and white
F#m
Where blacks only seen
B
Under cover of night
D
Do the Ceilidh Caller
E
And the Morris Man
F#m
All appeal to your sense
B D D D D
Of a long lost England
VERSE:
A D A Asus4 A
But who said you have right to belong
A D A Asus4 A
Was that something you stole from our songs
F#m
That have been sung through out time
F#m
Every note, every line
A D A Asus4 A
Hand me down by the writer Anon
A E A Asus4 A
Did he say you have right to belong
VERSE:
A D A Asus4 A
And who gave you the key to the door
A D A Asus4 A
Did you pick it up during the war
F#m
Keep it in your pocket
F#m
Until it's time to unlock it
A D A Asus4 A
And stop anyone from coming ashore
A E A Asus4 A
For who gave you the key to the door
PRE-CHORUS:
F#m
Or was it the underdog
F#m A
All that hard work and slog
E
From sailors to farmers
F#m
And that formed your racism
F#m A
Your sense of place and your love
E
Of a tikka masala
CHORUS:
D
All them songs about soldiers
E
All sent off to war
F#m B
Make you forget what you were fighting for
D
As you fly the flag
E
And dream of green pastures
F#m
We recall the strength
B B
Of the Tolpuddle martyrs
BREAK;
B C#m F#m
Well you can still make a fuss at any debate
D E
Oh but here social justice transcends every race
D E F#m F#m F#m F#m
But I'm glad you think folk music's good
D E A A Asus4 Asus4 A A
But you seem to have misunderstood /// / /// / ///
VERSE:
A D A Asus4 A
So stop sitting there on the fence
A D A Asus4 A
The fight is about to commence
F#m
Songs bring us together
F#m
But to change the weather
A D A Asus4 A
But then it's up to the whole audience
A E A Asus4 A
So stop sitting there on the fence
VERSE:
A D A Asus4 A
'Cause folk music belongs to us all
A D A Asus4 A
It catches whenever we fall
F#m
Across villages and towns
F#m
The songs will ring out
Bm
Down the valleys and streams
Bm
Carrying hopes and dreams
F#m
You can hear people come
F#m
To the sound of the drum
Bm
It's inclusivity
Bm
Just the fact that it's free
A D A Asus4 A
Means no fences, no doors, no walls
A E A Asus4 A
'Cause folk music belongs to us all
OUTRO:
F#m
It's inclusivity
F#m
The mere fact that it's free
A D A Asus4 A
Means no fences, no doors, no walls
