We Were Children(Keyboard chords)

	        


B                         F#   
It was a day like today, 
               Abm            E 
a sunday afternoon when they took you away 
B        F#         Eb 
down to Hades in a shopping trolley 
E 
with a magazine and a suitcase 
B              F# 
They stole your clothes  
            Abm 
i took your watch  
          E 
i couldnt look you in the eye  
B              F#             E               E  
why its always those who you love the most you criticise 




B       F#         Abm         E 
Oh no stranger your just like me, 
             B           F#          Abm            E 
these things happen we were children in the mid 90's 
B       F#         Abm         E 
Oh no stranger your just like me, 
       B           F#          Abm            E 
we get older they get younger it was you or me 





verse 2 

B                       F#                Abm          E         
We stood there throwing ice cream in your hair how i solemly swear 
B            F#                Eb (6th)    E (7th) 
its the thing in life i regret the most... leaving you standing there 
B                F#             Abm 
And if you asked me id pull my eyes out  
      E 
and when i woke up blind 
B            F#           Eb (6th) 
if you forgave i would sleep at night  
E (7th) 
knowing i'd led a good life. 




B       F#         Abm         E 
Oh no stranger your just like me, 
             B           F#          Abm            E 
these things happen we were children in the mid 90's 
B       F#         Abm         E 
Oh no stranger your just like me, 
       B           F#          Abm            E 
we get older they get younger it was you or me
