Biography:
The Spook School were a four piece band from Edinburgh, Scotland. The name is a reference to the Glasgow School. They met whilst attending the University of Edinburgh. Most of the band have previously been involved in live comedy shows, some of which were performed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Their music often gets compared to bands off the C86 compilation, such as The Shop Assistants, as well as The Buzzcocks; however the band also lists David Bowie as an influence.

[Intro]
C
[Verse]
C
We were friends
C
With feeling of pertinence
C
Smoke everyday
C
Got lost in each other's arms
C
Now I run
C
And I hope you get my letters
C
You don't wish
C
It were from someone better
C
We were so naive
C
We were sewn together
C
We were so young
C
Full of thoughts keep us together
[Chorus]
F
Everybody changes
G
Somethings stay the same
Em
We still keep in touch but
Am
You don't call my name
F
Everybody changes
G
Somethings stay the same
Em
We still keep in touch but
Am
You don't call my name
F
Hope the things I did say
G
Didn't hurt you
[Verse 2]
C
When I'm abroad
C
To change to a foreign language
C
So far away
C
And we never see face to face
C
Keep in touch with pictures
C
Keep in touch with postcards
C
Every night's the same
C
Make sure to see them gone
[Chorus]
F
Everybody changes
G
Somethings stay the same
Em
We still keep in touch but
Am
You don't call my name
F
Everybody changes
G
Somethings stay the same
Em
We still keep in touch but
Am
You don't call my name
F
Hope the things I did say

Didn't hurt you
