Best Years Of Our Lives chords by Steve Harley

Chords with lyrics

European Maids, so hard to ignore
C majorC C/B*  A minorAm    G+G    FF  C majorC
You, me, and the boys, barred from the shore

FF           C majorC
Fresh-faced imbeciles, laughing at me
     FF            C majorC
I've been laughing myself, is that so hard to see?
   FF             C majorC
Do I have to spell each letter out, honestly!
      FF              C majorC
If there's no room for laughter there's no room for me
DmDm       G+G
For me...

Try looking at you, rather than me
No truth is in here, it's all fantasy

Since the last time we met I've been through
About seven hundred changes and that's just a few
And the changes all tend to be something to do
But you've got to believe thaYthey're all done for you

CHORUS
FF         E minorEm        DmDm      C majorC
You'll think it's tragic when that moment first arrives
Oh, but it's magic, it's the best years of our lives

Lost now for the words to tell you the truth
please banter with me the banter of youth

If I knew how to say it I'd say it for you
If I knew how to whisper I'd whisper, for you
If I knew how to waltz, I'd get up and dance for you
If I thought I could run I'd come running to you

I've discovered now how to be fair
This I could teach you if only I dare

The only conclusion I've reached in my life
Is that if I should die I should die-by the knife
Since it's only a matter of courage all right
Die a man or a martyr, the two would be nice, so nice

CHORUS
