    D           G                D
He made his way back to the old town
    D           G               Asus4 A
And everything looked just the same
     Em                            Bm
The shops and the schools and the factories were there
     C                     Asus4  A
But somehow the faces had changed
       D          G                Dadd9
So he went for a walk in the high street
          D            G              Asus4 A
Took his coat off and rolled up his sleeves
     Em                           Bm
He thought of his father and his father before him
         C                      Asus4A
And how he was the first one to leave

         D           G           D
Well he didn't come here for forgiveness
       D       G           Asus4  A
There isn't a lot they can say
            A#                    C
'Cause I remember the reasons he first ran away

Chorus:
        D   G
He's a rebel
        D   G
Just a rebel
         D
Got his back to the wall
        G
Gonna fight 'til he falls
        D  G
He's a rebel

Don't ever look back - don't surrender
The old men say they've seen it before
Oh they drink their beer and they talk about friends
Who didn't come back from the war
Don't say he's too young to remember
Don't tell him what's wrong or what's right
Just give him a chance to go out there and fight

Chorus:
He's a rebel
Just a rebel
All the battles are won
But he's still on the run
He's a rebel

Asus4                    A
When it comes time for leavin'
Asus4              A
Don't stand in my way
Em                           G
There's nothin' left for me here
               Asus4 A
Gonna run, run away

In the morning he walks past the old house
In the rain under grey northern skies
There's a new coat of paint on the front garden gate
But there's more there than first meets the eye

For a moment he stands undecided
Looking back on the days of his youth
As two worlds collide in a moment of truth
He's a rebel
