We Were Children Lyrics

Intro : B F# E Eb x2
It was a day like today,
a sunday afternoon when they took you away
down to Hades in a shopping trolley
with a magazine and a suitcase
They stole your clothes
i took your watch
i couldnt look you in the eye
why its always those who you love the most you criticise
Oh no stranger your just like me,
these things happen we were children in the mid 90's
Oh no stranger your just like me,
we get older they get younger it was you or me
Interlude: B F# E Eb x2
We stood there throwing ice cream in your hair how i solemly swear
B F# Eb (6th) E (7th)
its the thing in life i regret the most... leaving you standing there
And if you asked me id pull my eyes out
and when i woke up blind
B F# Eb (6th)
if you forgave i would sleep at night
E (7th)
knowing i'd led a good life.
Oh no stranger your just like me,
these things happen we were children in the mid 90's
Oh no stranger your just like me,
we get older they get younger it was you or me
Solo B F# E Eb x4
Play both chords once
Learning how to keep living
Chorus - play power chords softly over the chorus
Oh no stranger your just like me,
these things happen we were children in the mid 90's
Oh no stranger your just like me,
we get older they get younger it was you or me
Oh no stranger your just like me,
these things happen we were children in the mid 90's
Oh no stranger your just like me,
we get older they get younger it was you or me
End on - B
