Hello. That's just a quick take on James Arthur's cover of Hometown Glory by Adele on X 
Factor UK. Few chords over and over again. If you're not comfortable with barre chords, 
then simply transpose one step lower and put a  
Capo on 1st fret and play simple Am G Em  
F progression. I hope you like it. ;) 

verse 1 
Bbm                           G#     Fm F# 
I've been walking in the same way as I did 
Bbm                           G# 
Missing out the cracks in the pavement 
            Fm          F# 
And tutting my heel and strutting my feet 
Bbm                      G#                        Fm             F# 
"Is there anything I can do for you dear? Is there anyone I could call?" 
Bbm                G#                    Fm         F# 
"No and thank you, please Madam. I ain't lost, just wondering" 


        Bbm       G# 
Round my hometown 
   Fm        F# 
Memories are fresh 
         Bbm       G# 
Round my hometown 
        Fm          F# 
Ooh the people I've met 
        Bbm        G# 
Are the wonders of my world 
        Fm         F# 
Are the wonders of my world 
        Bbm        G# 
Are the wonders of this world 
        Fm         F# 
Are the wonders of now 

The rest is exactly the same. 

Verse2: 
I like it in the city when the air is so thick and opaque 
I love to see everybody in short skirts, shorts and shades 
I like it in the city when two worlds collide 
You get the people and the government 
Everybody taking different sides 

Chorus: 
Round my hometown 
Memories are fresh 
Round my hometown 
Ooh the people I've met 

Are the wonders of my world 
Are the wonders of my world 
Are the wonders of this world 
Are the wonders of my world...
