Intro:
G C/G G
As I lay dreaming in my bed
C G Am G D6 D Dsus4 D
Across the great divide
Am Em
I thought I heard the trawler boats
C Em D/F#
Returning on the tide
G C/G G
And in this vision of my home
C G Am G D6 D Dsus4 D
The shingle beach did ring
Am Em
I saw the lights along the pier
C Dadd9 D
That made my senses sing
Em Em/D D
Oh oh Grimsby, a thousand delights
E
Couldn't match the sweet sights
Am G D/F# Em D
Of my Grimsby
C
Oh England you're fair
G/B Am Am/G G D/F# Em Em/D D Dsus4 D
But there's none to compare with my Grimsby
Em
Through nights of mad youth
D C D
I have loved every sluice in your harbour
Em D
And in your wild sands from boyhood to man
C B7
Strangers have found themselves fathers
Take me back you rustic town
I miss your magic charm
Just to smell your candy floss
Or drink in the Skinners Arms
No Cordon Bleu can match the beauty
Of your pies and peas
I want to ride your fairground
Take air along the quay
