Verse 1   
G5                                                            D5
Do you remember we traipsed around from pub to pound shop up through Kentish Town
D5
Only a fiver to our name, the drunk on the doorstep had more to our shame
G5                                                             D5
Living over the offie had its trials the fights all night out there and inside
D5
And those stews that lasted three days into four and the dreaded baliffs 
D5
returned to our door,

Bridge 1:
C5                            A5                  C5                     A5
but we stook with each other with all our might, we pulled it together and held on tight,
D5
And Im glad for us yeah Im glad machree but its nothing to anyone cept you and me

Chorus:
C5                 G5                C5                      G5
There were wrongs for every right, theres ups and theres downs
C5                  G5               D5

I watched the moon cover the might of the sun, The weird eerie light at a 
D5
quarter past one, and I knew in my head as I lay in my bed that you?d stay
D5
in my heart til the day I was dead,
G5                                                                 D5 
We killed each other and loved in time, and laughed til we almost cried,
D5
yeah we cried as well when it all went to Hell, And my heart it broke til I 
D5
swear it died

C5                            A5                  C5                     A5
but we stook with each other with all our might, we pulled it together and held on tight,
D5
And Im glad for us yeah Im glad machree but its nothing to anyone cept you and me

C5                  G5               D5
But youre the one for all my life, my true love I have found, yeah you my 
       G5
love I found
