(CAPO 1)

INTRO:  | G | G | D | D |    | G | G | D | D |

                     G
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
        D
       Football's coming home
             G
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
        D
       Football's coming home
                    G         Bm     Em         A
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
         D          F#m    B A
       Football's coming home
                     G         Bm     Em         A
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
         D          F#m    B A
       Football's coming home

	   Em         A                 D
       Everyone seems to know the score
                B              Em             A
       They've seen it all before, they just know,
                    D
       They're so sure,
             B                Em
       That England's gonna throw it away,
              A
       Gonna blow it away,
              D
       But I know they can play,
             B
       'Cos I remember,

       G           Bm     Em  A
       Three Lions on a shirt,
         D       F#m        B     A
       Jules Rimmet still gleaming,
       G        Bm     Em       A
       Thirty years of hurt,
         D    F#m         B      A
       Never stopped me dreaming,

       Em         A               D
       So many jokes, so many sneers,
                 B              Em             A
       But all those "Oh so nears", wear you down
                    D
       Through the years,
              B               Em
       But I still see that tackle by Moore,
                  A
       And when Lineker scored,
              D
       Bobby belting the ball,
             B
       And Nobby dancing,

        G          Bm     Em  A
       Three Lions on a shirt,
         D       F#m        B     A
       Jules Rimmet still gleaming,
       G        Bm     Em       A
       Thirty years of hurt,
         D    F#m         B      A
       Never stopped me dreaming,

BREAK: | Em | C | F#m | B |   | Em | C | F#m | B |

       Em               C                       B
       I know that was then, but it could be again

       G
        It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
        D
        Football's coming home
             G
        It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
        D
        Football's coming home
                    G         Bm     Em         A
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
         D          F#m    B A
       Football's coming home
                     G         Bm     Em         A
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
         D          F#m    B A
       Football's coming home
                     G         Bm     Em         A
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
                    (Three Lions on a shirt)
       D          F#m    B A
       Football's coming home
       (Jules Rimmet still gleaming)
                     G         Bm     Em         A
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
                     (Thirty years of hurt)
         D          F#m    B A
       Football's coming home
       (Never stopped me dreaming)
