Verse 1
======
[The lick in the intro carries on under the vocal.]
|C - - - - - - G |G - - - - - - Dm|Dm- - - - - - G7|G7 - - - - - - C|
Its been a long time since we hung around together in the street
|C - - - - - - G |G - - - - - - Dm|Dm- - - - - - G7|G7 - - - - - - C|
and I miss those days when the world would wait for us
|C - - - - - - G |G - - - - - - Dm|Dm- - - - - - G7|G7 - - - - - - C|
with our crowd of friends we'd sit along the pavemnent near your house
|C - - - - - - G |G - - - - - - Dm|Dm- - - - - - G7|G7 - - - - - - C|
'til the sun came down and we brought the stars out....
|C - - - - - - G |G - - - - - - Dm|Dm- - - - - - G7|G7 - - - - - - C|
...(out).......
Verse 2
=======
[Cue drums.]
|C - - - - - - G |G - - - - - - Dm|Dm- - - - - - G7|G7 - - - - - - C|
When I heard it for the first time I could only stand and cry.
|C - - - - - - G |G - - - - - - Dm|Dm- - - - - - G7|G7 - - - - - - C|
you were just a boy, we were all so innocent
|C - - - - - - G |G - - - - - - Dm|Dm- - - - - - G7|G7 - - - - - - C|
we never thought this kind of thing would happen in our lives
|C - - - - - - G |G - - - - - - Dm|Dm- - - - - - G7|G7 - - - - - - C|
but it broke our hearts and we won't forget, no
Bridge
======
[Detached chords on acoustic guitar - lots of space. Electric guitar muted.]
|Em7 - - Am7 - - - - |F - - Dm7 - - - - |
All this time has fallen through me since you've been gone,
| G - - Dm7 - - - - |G - - Dm7 - - - - |
and I wonder where you are, because you never let me know, no no no
Chorus
======
[Mute electric guitar - double time, but quiet.]
|C - - - - - - - F - - - - - - - |C - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
Your always going too soon.
|C - - - - - - - F - - - - - - - |Em - - - - - - - - - - - - - -|
I'm always left on my own..
[Louder with full drum kit and backing vocals.]
|G - - - - Dm- - - - - - - - - - |Em- - - - F - - - - - - - - - |
Its ok, I understand, sometimes life can hold you down.
