Grimsby Chords & Lyrics - Elton John

[Em] [D] [Em] [D] [Em] [D] [Em] [D] [C] [D]

[G]As I lay dreaming i[C/G]n my [G]bed
[C]Across [G]the g[Am]reat [G]di[D]vide

[Am]I thought I heard the [Em]trawler boats
[C]Returning on the [Em]tide [D/F#]

[G]And in this vision [C/G]of my [G]home
The [C]shi[G]ngle [Am]beach [G]did [D]ring

[Am]I saw the lights a[Em]long the pier
That [C]made my senses [D]sing

Oh oh[Em] Grimsby, a [D]thousand delights
Couldn’t [E]match the sweet sights

[Am]Of [G] [D/F#] [Em]my [D]Grimsby
Oh [C] England you’re fair

[G/B]But t[Am]here's [Am/G]none t[G]o compare [D/F#]with [Em]my [Em/D]Grimsb[D]y
[Em]Through nights of mad youth
I have
[D]loved every sluice in your [C]harbour [D]
And [Em]in your wild sands from [D]boyhood to man

[C]Strangers have found themselves [B7]fathers
Take me back you rustic town

I miss your magic charm
Just to smell your candy floss
Or drink in the Skinners Arms
No Cordon Bleu can match the beauty
Of your pies and peas
I want to ride your fairground
Take air along the quay
