*Fairly easy song to sing pretty rhythmic - can be sung however you want and strum how 
you feel :)

[opening] CAPO 3 to sing low... CAPO 5/6/7 to sing higher (works for me)

G             D               Em
We opened the book to write a story
G                 D                Em
We walked a quaint road singing our rhymes
G [sing louder here]   D [down again]Em [quite by this point]
Down in the streets and up on the hills, we walked...
G      [pause] D              Em                         C
And we talked, and we talked, from ancient history to technology.


    G [sing louder here] D     [down again] Em
and we lived, and we laughed, oh but i lied
G                   D        Em
It was a fad a farce, my dishonesty
G            D                       Em
But the pretence you loved so I let my self go
G [sing louder here]   D [down again]Em [quite by this point]
Down in the streets and up on the hills, we walked...
G      [pause] D              Em                         C
And we talked, and we talked, from ancient history to technology.

                      [PAUSE]
     G               D             Em          C
and you're voice charmed me- your pleasant company
G                   D                      Em
Guitars with names, you were quirky, extra-ordinary...
G [sing louder here] D     [down again] Em [quite by this point]
and we lived, and we laughed, oh but i lied
G                Em                       C
and for a while, we lived exactly this life.

G             D             Em          C
But soon when walked and we talked and, we talked,
Em                                C          Am
we changed from ancient history, to what was contemporary
G           D            Em
and you saw behind my dis.guise

G   D                     Em
and that's why i say i lied,
G   D                Em
but that is all a lie
G      D       Em
and i,  i cant deny
