Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][G][Em][G][Em]

[Verse 1]
[G]We
lended our heavy [Em]hearts,
[G]Motors with broken [Em]parts,

[Verse 2]
[Am]We had a deck of[C] cards it
was [G]a start.[Em]
[G]We'd sit out in [Em]the sun,
An[G]d wait for our skin [Em]to turn,

[Verse 3]
[Am]You would ask for truth,
And [C]I would look for something
[G]to [Em]burn.[F]
Oh we walked in [C]a hallowed
place back [Em]then

[Verse 4]
The edge [F]of Dublin,
the edge of May and June.
Oh to live in a [C]paper house [Em]again,
Where [Am]we grew by [C]the light of
[G]the moon.
[Em][G][Em]

[Verse 5]
[G]Often we took the [Em]train,
The [G]sky pacing white to [Em]grey,
[Am]When you or I would leave
[C]And the other wou[G]ld sta[Em]y.

[Verse 6]
[G]We were all that we [Em]had
And [G]breathed in each others word[Em]s,
[Am]I would ask for truth and
[C]You'd look for something
[G]to [Em]burn.[F]
Oh we walked in [C]a hallowed
place back [Em]then
The edge of Dublin,
[Am]the edge of May and Ju[F]ne.
Oh to live in a [C]paper house [Em]again,
Where [Am]we grew by the [C]light of
[G]the [Em]moon.[G][Em]
[G]You were much younger [Em]then,
[G]Younger than I am [Em]now,
[Am]I still keep as much an ey[C]e
as the wires al[G]low,[Em]
[Am]I still keep as much
an [C]eye as the wires [G]allow.
[Em]Oh w[G]e wa[Em]lked[F] in
[C]a hallowed place back t[Em]hen
The edge of Dublin,
[Am]the edge of May and Ju[F]ne.
Oh to live in [C]a paper house [Em]again,
Where [Am]we grew by the l[C]ight of th[G]e moon.
[Em][G][Em][F][C][Em][F]
[C][Em][F]
Oh you know what [C]you [Em]are to [F]me
And you know you will al[C]ways [Em]be.
