verse 1 
      Am                         C           Dm 
I was told about a man who would never leave Grimsby 
         F   C     Dm 
And that may sound strange 
        Am                              C               Dm 
But his heart was in that town with his friends and his family 
       F    C   Am 
But to make him leave  
         F    C Dm 
Would be pain indeed 


verse 2 
       Am                                  C        Dm 
Now he could have toured the world, he was highly respected 
       F    C   Dm 
But to make him go 
         Am                        C           Dm 
Would be ripping out his heart and leaving him restless 
      F   C   Am 
So to see him play 
       F    C  G 
Go the Grimsby way 


          Dm7               C       F                    D 
?Cause he has a little love, but he gives a lot of love 
           G               F   Em  G 
It doesn?t matter where he is 
          Dm7              C        F                   D 
If you?ve got a little love and you give a lot of love 
           G                          F 
It doesn?t matter where you are, it?s up to you 
Em              G           Dm7  G  Dm7  G 
You could be in Grimsby too 



verse 3 
      Am                       C          Dm 
Got a letter from a boy from a village in Kenya 
       F    C Dm 
He was such a fan 
   Am                        C              Dm 
So smitten by the band, they called him the Strawbs Boy  
         F    C   Am 
And that made him proud 
         F    C  Dm 
He would play us loud 


verse 4 
       Am                           C          Dm 
In the letter Lucky wrote that he?d been to Nairobi 
        F     C     Dm 
Which I found quite sad 
           Am                            C        Dm 
Because he said he looked around, but he couldn?t see me 
       F     C    Am 
With a faith like that 
      F    C  G 
How I wish he had 


      Dm7              C       F                  D 
Lucky had a little love and he gave a lot of love 
       G               F   Em  G 
Didn?t matter where he was 
          Dm7              C        F                   D 
If you?ve got a little love and you give a lot of love 
           G                          F 
It doesn?t matter where you are, it?s up to you 
Em              G           Dm7  G  
You could be in Grimsby too 



verse 4 
       Am                          C           Dm 
If you ever meet the man who would never leave Grimsby 
       F    C   Dm 
Try to make him see 
         Am                           C        Dm 
That the home is in the heart and you carry it with you 
        F C   Am 
You may never leave 
         F  C     G 
And your spirit?s free 

 
          Dm7            C        F                  D 
If you've got little love and you give a lot of love 
        G                F   Em  G 
Doesn?t matter where you are   
    Dm7               C        F                  D 
So, take a little love and you give a lot of love 
           G                          F 
It doesn?t matter where you are, it?s up to you 
Em              G           Dm7  Em  F  Dm  G  F  Em  G 
You could be in Grimsby too
