Intro: 
G Major

Verse 1   
G                                                            D
Do you remember we traipsed around from pub to pound shop up through Kentish Town
D
Only a fiver to our name, the drunk on the doorstep had more to our shame
G                                                             D
Living over the offie had its trials the fights all night out there and inside
D
And those stews that lasted three days into four and the dreaded baliffs 
D
returned to our door,

Bridge 1:
C                            Am                  C                     Am
but we stook with each other with all our might, we pulled it together and held on tight,
D
And Im glad for us yeah Im glad machree but its nothing to anyone cept you and me

Chorus:
C                 G                C                      G
There were wrongs for every right, theres ups and theres downs
C                  G               D

I watched the moon cover the might of the sun, The weird eerie light at a 
D
quarter past one, and I knew in my head as I lay in my bed that you?d stay
D
in my heart til the day I was dead,
G                                                                 D 
We killed each other and loved in time, and laughed til we almost cried,
D
yeah we cried as well when it all went to Hell, And my heart it broke til I 
D
swear it died

Bridge 2:
C                            Am                  C                     Am
but we stook with each other with all our might, we pulled it together and held on tight,
D
And Im glad for us yeah Im glad machree but its nothing to anyone cept you and me

C                  G               D
But youre the one for all my life, my true love I have found, yeah you my 
       G

Oh youre good at the things Im hopeless at and I notice what you ignore
D
But its when I see youre not prefect for me, its then I love you more and more,

The country may be going to shite but at least we can be proud of our brilliant 
artists, from Hannon and Davey to May and Hannigan.
