1996 Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][C][Em][D]
[C][C][Em][D]
[C]

[Verse 1]
I had no cares in the [Em]1990s
I knew of no [D]downfalls
[C]Though war was breaking out
all around [Em]me
My concerns were with [D]prank calls
[C]

[Pre-chorus 1]
She kissed me on the cheek,
she kissed me on the cheek
Right in [Em]front of the older [D]kids
[C]When our self-belief, our self-belie[G]f
Wasn't [Em]scarred by the modern [A]itch

[Chorus 1]
'Cause now it feels like
[C]We kiss with one eye[G] on our TV set[Em]
And the more I [D]give, the less I [C]get
Needing fairground [G]rides
just to spark a [Em]smile
There's little here to [D]miss
Bring back nineteen nine[C]ty [G]six
Bring back nineteen nine[Em]ty s[D]ix
So hard to beat those teen[C]age kicks
[G]Bring back nineteen ninety [Em]six[D]

[Interlude 1]
[C][Em][G][Bm]

[Verse 2]
[C]We were cloning sheep in the 199[Em]0s
We were building tel[D]e scopes
[C]And sugar filled the whole
of my bo[Em]dy
As I urged it on [D]to grow
[C]

[Pre-chorus 2]
I kissed her on the cheek,
I kissed her on the cheek
Just to im[Em]press the older [D]kids
[C]But my self-belief, my self-belie[G]f
Wasn't [Em]lost in the modern [A]glitch

[Chorus 2]
'Cause now it feels like
[C]We kiss with one eye[G] on our TV set[Em]
And the more I [D]give, the less I [C]get
Needing fairground [G]rides
just to spark a [Em]smile
There's little here to [D]miss
Bring back nineteen nine[C]ty [G]six
Bring back nineteen nine[Em]ty s[A]ix

[Bridge 1]
[C]Stop talking, stop tal[G]king
[Em]I need a lover, not a frie[A]nd tonight
[C]I'm leaving, I'm lea[G]ving
[Em]I'm not cut out for the mode[A]rn life
[C]

[Outro 1]
[Em][G][Bm]
[C][Em][G][Bm]
I'll never beat those teen[C]age kicks
[Em][G][Bm]
I'll never beat those teen[C]age kicks
[G][Em][Bm]
I'll never beat those teen[C]age kicks
[G][Em][Bm]
Bring back nineteen nine[C]ty six
[G][Em][Bm][C]
[G][Em][Bm][C]
