Lest We forget
[D] [G] [Em7][Asus] [D] [G] [Em7]
Your deeds as a younger man
[Asus] [D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
Like how when you were nine, you fell in love because
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
she was the first girl you'd seen throw a cricket ball
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus] [D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
You knew that you'd be together for the rest of your lives
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
Now you sit alone in the sun in the backyard
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
feeding the birds, reading the newspaper
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus] [D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
thinking about the love that you shouldn't have lost
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
//: Love that you lost, love that you shouldn't have://
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus] [D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
Love that you lost, love that you shouldn't have lost
//: D / D / G / G / Em7 / Em7 / Asus4 / A7 ://
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
When I was a child I didn't see her much
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
She passed away before I was five
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus] [D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
I was so young that it barely affected my life
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
Then one day when I asked you told me she was magnificent
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
All that I had was your word and her photograph
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus] [D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
But one look in your eyes told me all that I needed to know
[D] [G] [Em7] [Asus]
//: Love that you lost, love that you shouldn't have://
Love that you lost, love that you shouldn't have lost
Love that you lost, love that we shouldn't have
Love that you lost, love that you shouldn't have
Love that we lost, love that we shouldn't have lost
