Verse:
   Em
We lended our heavy hearts,
   Em
motors with broken parts,
   Em
we had a deck of cards it was a start.
   Em
We'd sit out in the sun,
  Em
and wait for our skin to turn,
  C*
you would ask for truth,
  Em
and I would look for something to burn.
Chorus:
Em
Oh we walked in a hallowed place back then
                    F
the edge of Dublin, the edge of May and June.
                Em
Oh to live in a paper house again,
Em
where we grew by the light of the moon.

Em

  Em
Often we took the train,
  Em
the sky pacing white to grey,
  C*
when you or I would leave
        C**
and the others would stay.
  Em
We were all that we had
    Em
and breathed in each others word,
  C*
I would ask for truth
    Em
and you'd look for something to burn.

Chorus

Em

  Em
You were much younger then,
  Em
younger than I am now,
  C**
I still keep as much an eye as the wires allow,
  C**
I still keep as much an eye as the wires allow.

Chorus

Em

Em
Oh you know what you are to me
                      F
and you know you will always be.


    C**

The intro shows how the chords are played throughout the song.
During the chorus Em is played like this:
e|--------|
B|---0----|
G|-----0--|
D|----2---|
A|--2-----|
E|--------|

Unfortunately I wasn't sure about how the diffrent C-chords are called.
