As It Is When It Was chords by New Order

Guitar chords with lyrics

I made another tab on this song that shows how you play the chords
I'm unsure about the ending because end on g,c not an am,d

Intro: (x2)
G C G C G C Am D

Verse 1:
G                            C
I've kept my head against the wall
G                        C
I've been this way for so long now
G                      C
You weren't exactly falling over yourself
Am     D
  When last I saw you
G             C
Well I always thought
G                     C
We'd get along like a house on fire
G                          C
Until you told me that I'd have to go
Am                         D
How can someone like you, work that slow?

Chorus:
G             C
 Whatever you think of me
G                          C
You listen hard and I will make you see
G             C
 Whatever you think of me
Am                          C
You listen hard and I will make you see

Pre-Verse:
G C G C G C Am D

Verse 2:
G                     C
I don't feel anything no more
G                      C
This state of grace is consuming me
G                    C
I'm not grown up and I am not a boy
Am                 D
I feel no pain and I feel no joy
G              C
Well, I always thought
G                     C
We'd get along like a house on fire
G                       C
 In those days when the sun was warm
Am                   D
I ran in the street where I was born

Chorus:
G             C
 Whatever you think of me
G                          C
You listen hard and I will make you see
G             C
 Whatever you think of me
Am                         C
You listen hard and I will make you see

Pre-bridge:
G C G C G C Am D G C G C

Bridge:
G                        C
The streets are so empty at this time of night
Am                    D
I'd rather walk on my own than fight
G                    C
In a world where I'd forgotten you
G              C
I found myself forgotten, too
G                    C
That's the danger of believing books
Am                  D
And all the lies of those thieves and crooks
G                    C
We sing intellectual songs of love
G                      C
