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 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
