(CAPO 1)

INTRO:  |  |  |  |  |    |  |  |  |  |

                     
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
        
       Football's coming home
             
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
        
       Football's coming home
                                           
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
                        
       Football's coming home
                                            
       It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
                        
       Football's coming home

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

                         
       Three Lions on a shirt,
                             
       Jules Rimmet still gleaming,
                           
       Thirty years of hurt,
                            
       Never stopped me dreaming,

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

                         
       Three Lions on a shirt,
                             
       Jules Rimmet still gleaming,
                           
       Thirty years of hurt,
                            
       Never stopped me dreaming,

       I know that was then, but it could be again

       
        It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,
