Tuning: E A D G B E

Intro:

G D G D
 
 
Verse 1:
G               D/F#
Looking back at white and black
  Em            D
Reminders of my past
G              D/F#
Smoky bars and cheap guitars
    Em               D
But nothing built to last
 
 
Chorus:
D            C
Nothing ever stays
                 G
Nothing comes to mind
D           Em
No one can erase
    C              G    D C
The days we left behind

Verse 2:
G                D/F#
 See the boys of Dungeon Lane
 Em              D
Along the Mersey shore
G                 D/F#
Some of them will feel the pain
    Em                  D
But some were meant for more
 
 
Chorus:
    D                 C
And nothing stays the same
                G
No one needs to cry
D             Em
Nothing can reclaim
    C              G
The days we left behind
 
 
Bridge:
Em
  We met at Forthlin Road
Bm
  And wrote a secret code
Em            Bm
  To never be spoken
G
 I stand by what I said
D
 The promise that I made
C              D
 Will never be broken
 
 
Chorus:
D            C
Nothing ever stays
                 G
Nothing comes to mind
    D           Em
And no one can erase
    C              G    D C
The days we left behind
 
 
Verse 3:
G                 D
 In the skies the skylarks rise
 Em                 D
Above the sounds of war
G                D
Since that day I knew they’d stay
     Em         D
With me for evermore
 
 
Chorus:
       D                 C
’Cause nothing stays the same
                    G
And no one needs to cry
    D            Em
And no one is to blame
        C              G
For the days we left behind
    C              G    D G  Em D G
The days we left behind
