Well Jamie gets home from work

Puts a record on

She's been teaching all day

She's got papers to mark

C 
But there's a veggie lasagna 
Am 
Left from last night 
D7                                G 
She could warm it up, do a little salad on the side

She lays the table 
Am 
Pours two glasses of juice

Then Lily gets home from work

Another double shift

In fact the only thing 
Am 
That got her through today

Was knowing she'd be coming home to Jamie, gay

Time is standing still

Verse 
C 
The rent in Brighton 
Am 
Isn't cheap 
D7                         G 
Which is annoying, because that's where they live 
C 
And that's all Jamie wanted 
Am 
When she was growing up 
D7                          G 
To move to Brighton, find a girl and fall in love 
C 
That's exactly how it happened 
Am 
When she met Lily 
D7                          G 
Love at first sight and the rest is history 
C 
Jamie went to work 
Am 
To help pay for Lily's training 
D7                                     G 
But they toughed it out together, both scrimping and saving 
C 
Until that final day 
Am 
They both fully qualified 
D7                         G 
Now just like Jamie, she's working all the time

Outro 
      F 
Well, teachers and nurses 
        G 
Are the fabric of society 
    F                               C    G 
And they deserve to be treated like royalty

Jamie and Lily

Oh, love stays true while the world goes crazy
