Intro: C Em Dm G (x2)
Verse 1:
C G
They ran away for true love
Am F C
Saying they knew life wasn't fair
G Am Am C
Thought they'd be together for all times
G
They'd always have this true love
Am F
For they made each other swear
C G Am Am C
Two kids, they never saw the signs
Verse 2:
G
They settled in a new life
Am F C
And the bairn grew slow inside
G Am Am C
They showed a disregard and little time
G Am F
Oh, this is when the alpha and the omega collide
C G Am Am
No hope, no conscience, no crime
C Am
But it cannot be what it appears to be
F C
Nothing living lies that still
C Am
For sale, baby shoes, never worn
F C
It's a bitter pill
Break: C Em Dm G
Verse 3:
C G
They thought they had a true love
Am F C
It was fire-proof and immune

They never the truth, that this is all
G
And when the spell was shattered
Am F
When they broke from their cocoon
C G Am Am
Two kids, they never saw the fall
C Am
But it cannot be what it appears to be

Nothing living lies that still
C Am
For sale, baby shoes, never worn
F C F
It's a bitter pill

Nobody warned them

Nobody saw the signs

Two kids from broken lines
