Intro chords
Verse 1 chords:
I tumbled out of Gateshead, it was a lazy afternoon
I put the pedal down for southbound, beneath an early rising moon
And I ended up in Durham, standing underneath the rain
Sometimes the whole world is a city, where no one knows your name
Pre-chorus 1 chords:
There was a gypsy selling papers she sounded like a mourning dove
Calling soft and sad and quiet, one part grief and one part love
Chorus 1 chords:
One part love, one part love
One part love
Verse 2
[use verse 1 chords]
It was a late night in Newcastle and I made myself a friend
We traded cab fare from the hotel across the Tyne and back again
And we stood each other beers out of the money from the show
And then we talked about the job and indie bands and bars back home
Pre-chorus 2
[use pre-chorus 1 chords]
And with the hotel windows open I slept and woke and slept again
And I dreamed they burned a city with a suitcase and a grin
Verse 3
[use verse 1 chords]
And so I stood in Durham City beneath the castle and the keep
And I heard a gypsy woman selling, like one part love and one part grief
Pre-chorus 3
[use pre-chorus 1 chords]
And my dream came to me waking, on the cobbles in the rain
Maybe nothing is forever, nothing is in vain
Chorus 2

One part love, one part love
One part love
