George Ezra-Shotgun

BPM 116 - big doubled vox for choruses - 
home grown, south of the, we got two in the front
E A C#m B ----------- for all of song 
                                                    
[Verse 1] E A C#m B                                                                       
[E] Home grown alligator,  [A] see you later                                                          
Gotta hit the  [C#m] road, gotta hit the road [B]  
Something changed in the atmosphere,
Architecture unfamiliar,            
I could get used to this  
          
[Pre-chorus] E A C#m B                
Time flies by in the yellow and green,         
stick around and you'll see what I mean.     
There's a mountain top, that I'm dreaming of,
If you need me, you know where I'll be.  
    
[Chorus] E A C#m B                                  
Ill be riding shotgun,                              
Underneath the hot sun,                             
Feeling like a someone.                             
Ill be riding shotgun,                              
Underneath the hot sun,                             
Feeling like a someone.    
                         
[Verse 2] E A C#m B                                 
The south of the equator, navigator,                
Gotta hit the road, gotta hit the road.             
Deep-sea diving round the clock,                    
Bikini bottoms, lager tops                          
I could get used to this    
                        
[Pre-chorus] E A C#m B                              
Time flies by in the yellow and green,              
stick around and youll see what I mean.             
Theres a mountain top, that Im dreaming of,         
If you need me, you know where Ill be. 
             
[Chorus] E A C#m B         
                         
[Bridge] E A C#m B                                  
We got two in the front, two in the back,           
Sailing along and we dont look back.  
              
[Pre-chorus] E A C#m B                              
Time flies by etc       
                            
[Chorus] E A C#m B - repeat lots until below           
Feeling like a someone, a someone,a someone, a someone.
