RE/FA# SOL RE/LA
Well he made his way back to the old town,
RE/FA# SOL LAsus LA
And everything looked just the same,
MIm SIm
The shops and the schools and the factories were there,
DOsus2 LAsus LA
But somehow the faces had changed.
RE/FA# SOL RE/LA
So he went for a walk in the high street,
RE/FA# SOL LAsus LA
Took his coat off and rolled up his sleeves,
MIm SIm
He thought of his father and his father before him,
DOsus2 LAsus LA
And how he was the first one to leave.
RE/FA# SOL RE/LA
Well he didn't come here for forgiveness,
RE/FA# SOL LAsus LA
There isn't a lot they can say,
SIb DO
Cause I remember the reasons he first ran away.
CHORUS
RE5 RE5/MI RE5/FA# SOLsus
He's a rebel,
RE5 RE5/MI RE5/FA# SOLsus
Just a rebel,
RE5 RE5/MI
Got his back to the wall,
RE5/FA# SOLsus
Gonna fight till he falls,
RE5 RE5/MI RE5/FA#
He's a rebel.
Don't ever look back - don't surrender,
The old men say they've seen it before,
Oh they drink their beer and they talk about friends,
Who didn't come back from the war.
Don't say he's too young to remember,
Don't tell him what's wrong or what's right,
Just give him a chance to get out there and fight.
RE5 RE5/MI RE5/FA# SOLsus
He's a rebel,
RE5 RE5/MI RE5/FA# SOLsus
Just a rebel,
RE5 RE5/MI
All the battles are won,
RE5/FA# SOLsus
But he's still on the run,
RE5 RE5/MI RE5/FA# SOLsus
He's a rebel.
BRIDGE:
LAsus LA
When it comes time for leavin',
LAsus LA
Don't stand in my way,
MIm SOL
There's nothin' left for me here,
LAsus LA LAsus LA RE9 REsus RE9 REsus
Gonna run - run away.
In the morning he walks passed the old house,
In the rain under grey northern skies,
There's a new coat of paint on the front garden gate,
But there's more there than first meets the eye.
For a moment he stands undecided,
Looking back on the days of his youth,
As two worlds collide in a moment of truth.
