1997 Livid Festival
D5      A5             C5
Me and Sarah my best friend
D5              C5
Stripy tights and fairy wings
G5
As safe as safe can be
Bb5                      D5
We drank the gin we'd snuck in
A5              D5
Danced to Ben Folds Five
A5              C5
I turned around to Sarah
D5              C5
Couldn't see her anywhere
G5              Bb5     Bb5
As safe as safe can be

D5      A5     G5     Bb5
Oh Sarah, I didn't mean to let you down
C5                       D5     A5
But you left me on my own, Sarah
G5              Bb5
Why didn't you scream?

C5               D5
I went to all the stages
A5                      D5
And to the St John's stand
A5                              C5
The man said 'you just missed her
D5                      C5
Stay - maybe she'll come back again'
G5              Bb5
I sat and watched the crowds
D5
My father came at midnight
A5                      D5
We searched til half-past four
A5              C5
I was half hysterical
D5              C5
My father wasn't sure
G5              Bb5
He called for the police

D5      A5     G5     Bb5
Oh Sarah, I didn't mean to let you down
C5                       D5     A5
But you left me on my own, Sarah
G5              Bb5             C5      D5
Why didn't you scream?  Why didn?t you shout?
A5      G5                     Bb5 
Sarah, I hated that I let you down
C5                       D5     A5
But you left me on my own, Sarah
G5                      Bb5     C5      D5
Why didn?t you scream?  Why didn?t you shout?


                D5
The next day the sergeant
A5                      D5
Found her blue dress in the creek
A5                      C5
Her parents were so angry
D5                      C5
They put the blame on me
G5      
Bb5              D5
Then a fortnight later
A5                      D5
Sarah knocked upon their door
A5                      C5              D5
Her mother asked her 'Where've you been?'
C5
And she said
G5       F5              D5     A5     D5     A5     D5
'I don't know, I don't know, I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I can't remember
A5
Anything at all.'

D5      A5     G5     Bb5
Oh Sarah, I didn't mean to let you down
C5                       D5     A5
But you left me on my own, Sarah
G5              Bb5             C5      D5
Why didn't you scream?  Why didn?t you shout?
A5      G5                     Bb5 
Sarah, I hated that I let you down
C5                       D5     A5
But you left me on my own, Sarah
G5                      Bb5     C5      D5
Why didn?t you scream?  Why didn?t you shout?
