At fifteen we had to (C major)
leave the States again
Dad was stationed at an RAF base
they called (F major) Mildenhall
Black moss on a (C major) busted wall (A minor)
(C major) The cobblestones made
it hard to skate
I thought my flattop (A minor) was so (C major) new wave
Until it (F major) melted away in
the Suffolk (C major) rain
Well god dam (G major) n, you miss the USA
