Chords with lyrics

Verse:
 C                   Am
We wrote our Dear John letters in the same pen

   G                  C
And before the ink was dry they were already stamped and sent

 C                 Am
Yours to West Berlin and mine to Kent

   G                 C
And they sat side by side until they went


Verse:
 C                     Am
Your Sunday school script was packed in tight

 G                C
Careful and considered in the faltering bathroom light

 C                      Am
Mine in the spidery hand in which I still write

 G               C
I thought of every line as a fuse ready to light

Chorus:
 F                   C
They came back broken they came back bent

   F                       C
And expected us to be what they thought they’d left

        G
And though we weren’t quite whole

          F
Turned out we were all

             C
Each other needed to grow old


Verse:
 C                    Am
The thick skin on my back grew hard to cut

    G                     C
I’m sure the words were sharp but they never stuck

 C                Am
We sat back pretty easy and we watched the decades bend

 G                     C
Home, bus stop, shop, bus stop and home again

Chorus:
 F                   C
They came back broken they came back bent

   F                       C
And expected us to be what they thought they’d left

        G
And though we weren’t quite whole

          F
Turned out we were all

             C
Each other needed to grow old


Verse:
 C                      Am
Now my stiff limbs jerk across the station concours

    G            C
Like a wind up toy forced to walk

 C                         Am
And you’ve been dead six years now though sometimes it feels like more

     G      C
And I am old, I am old

 C                       Am
You’ve been dead six years now though sometimes it feels like more

     G      C
And I am old, I am old
