       G            C            G      D
I was just a little boy without care
    Em              G       Em         Am      D
I remember looking up and seeing you there
        C             Bm            Am
I never wandered too far from your sight
                G                  C            Am      D
'Cause all the love I needed was there in your eyes
         G                                       D
We grew up in a war zone city with a cast iron wind
        Em                                  Am          D
Broken lives, darken streets, and twisted steel
      C                   G         D  Am
But around our house the sky seems so blue
          Em                  C                   D
And on a wing and prayer we just muddled through
Bm      C               G                D               Em
And we always kept the laughter and the smile upon our face
         C                 G               D                   Am
In that good-old-fashion British way with pride and faultless grace
G         C                 G                     D               Em
I shall never forget those childhood days for as long as I shall live
          Am                       G                  D    G
And I'll always find my way back, always find my way back home
G
Tell me why in wars that made our family strong
         Em                                          G
As our defiant little island weathered the storm
       C             G            Am
There never seemed enough on my plate
              Em           C               Am       D
You said be grateful, say grace, don't complain
     C          G                  D                Em
How can I ever thank you for the lessons that I've learnt
          C                   G                D             Am
And the precious warmth and comfort that I've felt at every turn
Bm       C              G                      D               Em
And for those that sacrificed their lives for freedom and for peace
        Am                        G                 D    G
I will always find my way back, always find my way back home
Em             D            C              G
I'll give you stories, of raging, burning skies
         D               C                G
And our nation with its back against the wall
        Em        D            C             G
Like a wide-eyed school boy I hang on every word
Am                           D
Stories I was too young to recall
         C              G                D              Em
And we always kept the laughter and the smile upon our face
         C               G                D                    Am
In that good-old-fashion British way with pride and faultless grace
G       C                   G                     D              Em
I shall never forget those childhood days for as long as I shall live
          Am                       G              D
And I'll always find my way back, always find my way
        C               G                D              Em
And we always kept the laughter and the smile upon our face
         C                G                D                   Am
In that good-old-fashion British way with pride and faultless grace
Bm      C                   G                    D               Em
I shall never forget those childhood days for as long as I shall live
          Am                        D                      G
And I'll always find my way back, always find my way back home
Outro……………    Em   G   D   G
Covering Churchill’s voice saying:
We shall fight on the beaches
We shall fight on the landing grounds
We shall fight in the fields, and in the streets
We shall fight in the hills, we shall never surrender
