Intro:

E  B  A  x3


Verse:
A                            E  B  A
I think we had the same ideas
A                    E  B  A
Though I can’t be sure
A                       E  B  A
Because I got left behind
A                          C#m  B  A
I got caught out in the storm
A                        E  B  A
The light is hard to find
A                         E  B  A
When I’m never in control
A                    E  B  A
What a selfish thing
A                    C#m  B  A  G#m7
To go and get so old

Chorus:
F#m7
When the lilacs bloom
F#m7                  E B A
I’ll be thinking of you


Verse:
A             E  B  A
Back up to the top
A              E  B  A
Back to my room
A                    E  B  A
Some days I find it hard
A                  C#m  B  A
Hard to see the view
A                         E  B  A
On a chain I have your ring
A                          E  B  A
It’s too big for my knuckles
A                            E  B  A
This morning’s coffee’s cold
A                               E  B  A
And I’m doing yesterday’s puzzles

C#m  B  A  G#m7

F#m7                  E
When the lilacs bloom
F#m7              C#m
I’ll be thinking of you
   C#m7/C
And me
         B         B/Bb
And that old apple tree
      C#m7    C#m7/C
Yeah you and me
         B            B/Bb*
And all that I used to be

N.C.                         E  B  A
I think we had the same ideas
A                   E  B  A
But now I don’t know
A                      E  B  A
I feel like a stranger
A                            C#m  B  A  G#m7
       Walking in these old bones


Chorus:
F#m7                      E
    When the lilacs bloom
F#m7                      E
When the lilacs bloom
F#m7                      E
When the lilacs bloom

A                            E  B  A
       I’ll be thinking of you
A                            E  B  A
       I’ll be thinking of you
A                            E  B  A
       I’ll be thinking of you
