D 

Verse 1:

I think back on all those weekends G When I'd lose track then fall asleep and Bm A G Wake up drinking out of mugs with vimto stains D On your chair sat in the corner G You'd say the weather?s getting warmer Bm A G Then we?d go out to fly our paper planes

Pre-Chorus

G I wonder what you'd think if you could see me now
D G So I'll wear the boots you bought me when I was 15 Bm G And hope that you'd be proud of who I turned out to be

Verse 2:

D Six years on, I still remember G That day in mid December Bm A G Dad sat me down with red around his eyes D It had been weeks since I?d last seen you G Kissed your cheeks, said 'I'll be back soon' Bm A G 'Cause I thought we had a little bit more time

Pre-Chorus

G What would it be like if you were still around?
D G So I'll wear the boots you bought me when I was 15 Bm G And hope that you'd be proud of who I turned out to be

Bridge:

Em I?ll steal bread from the kitchen Bm Chase my sisters round the garden D A G Trampling on the flowers on the lawn Em You'll never see me graduate Bm Or any of our wedding days D Bm G I don?t want to grow up on my own
D G So I'll wear the boots you bought me when I was 15 Bm G And hope that you'd be proud of who I turned out to be D G But all the things I wish I told you I'll never get to say Bm G And you won't get to meet the man that I am today

Verse 3:

D Now with every passing Christmas G I feel so low and I can't fix it Bm A G I wish I was back at your house again D Now I'm older and I'm taller G And the weather's getting warmer Bm A G So I'll go out to fly my paper planes
