[Verse]
G C G
I'm in the toilets of a shit old club
D Em
While all of these other boys are taking drugs
C G
I'm talking with Bossman about love and loss and
D
Where life goes wrong
G C G
'cause he works all night just to take home a wage
D Em
Selling chewing gum and lollypops and cheap aftershaves
C G
To the boys in huaraches sniffing cocaine off car keys
D
All night long
G C G
And I say mate Don't you ever get sick of the sight
D
Of the drunken fights
Em C
And the smell of shit sick and piss
G D G D
There's got to be more to life than this
G C G
And he said son I've got no riches to boast
D Em
But see in luck and love I swear I'm richer than most
C
I've got a wife and two kids
G D
There's so much more to my life than this
G C G
So no spray no lay no splash no gash
D Em
Cheap aftershaves in exchange for cash
C
I'm not making a killing bruv
G D
But I'm making a living and that's enough
[Break] - G C G D
G C G
I'm on my way home in the backseat of a cab
D Em
And I'm talking with bossman while I eat my kebab
C G
I'll ask him if he's been busy what time he gets off and dizzy
D
From 'round this way
G C G
'cause he works all night on a twelve-hour shift
D Em
With the gypsy jeans and the beauty queens and the lads on the piss
C G
They've had a couple of shandies mixed with charlie and mandy
D
Every weekend's the same
G C G
And I say mate don't you ever get sick
D
of abuse from the drunken youths
Em
Leaning out your window being sick
C G D
There's got to be more to life than this
G C G
And he said son I've got no riches you see
D Em
But my son's at school and education ain't free
C
He'll be a doctor someday
G D
If he wants a future we've got to pay
G C G
So I'll drive all night with these drunken kids
D Em
Who need to stop to get cash or need to stop for a piss
C
I'm not making a killing bruv
G D
But I'm making a living and that's enough
[Break] - G C G D Em C G D
G C G
I'm at the counter of my local shop
D Em
Where bossman's been working since we were kids in the blocks
C G D
Every Saturday night he would serve me with my fake ID when I was fifteen years old
G C G
And he's still there now before I go to bed
D Em
And in the morning with the bakers a pint of milk and loaf of bread
C G
He sleeps and he showers then works another twenty four hours
D
You see it's taking its toll
G C G
And I say mate don't you ever get sick
D Em
of this place stacking shelves every day Come on bruv you've got to admit
C G D
there's got to be more to life than this
G C G
And he said son I'm barely making ends meet
D Em
But there's a war back home and people die in the street
C G D
Said I thank God every day that me and my family have got away
G C G
So I'll spend my life in this shop but it's sweet
D Em
'cause I don't fight to survive and I don't fight just to eat
C
And I'm not making a killing bruv
G D
But I'm alive and I'm living and that's enough
[Outro] - G C G D "Thats Enough" G.
