B minorBm
When you were younger
A augmentedA
Blue eyed boy wonder
G+G Riff 1
Never used to ponder on what life may hide
B minorBm
Now you're older
A augmentedA
the nights are so much colder
G+G Riff 2
Never even told her how you feel inside
B minorBm A augmentedA
You were so proud with your head up in the white clouds
G+G
She'd call you so loud but you'd never know
B minorBm A augmentedA
Now that you're wiser you'd never compromise her
G+G
Every day you'd realise her
G+G
But this bird has flown

And you curse yourself for things you never done
B minorBm - A augmentedA - G+G (do with the Chorus tab) x2
B minorBm
She would wait for you
A augmentedA
Idolise adore you
G+G Riff 1
Love and reassure you you couldn't let it be
B minorBm
You let it linger
A augmentedA
Slip on through your fingers
G+G Riff 2
So that september she moved across the sea
B minorBm
How your face dropped
A augmentedA
How your heart stopped
G+G
Sitting at the bus stop when they told you that she'd gone
B minorBm
So you run to the harbour
A augmentedA
Need to tell her that you love her
G+G
As the boat disappears you never felt so alone

Now your grandson blonde haired blue eyed handsome
