When I was young and out of school 
                      C 
I always wanted to be cool 
                          D 
I tried alot to act like you 
                        G 
And always ended up the fool 
                         Em7 
Playing football was the way 
                              C                             D 
I always thought that I could make it to the top but then I failed 
                   C 
And I drank it all away 
D     G   C 
Away, away

                     Em7 
Overthinking all the years 
                           C 
I spent in blood sweat and tears 
                       D 
Trying hard to find my way 
                        G 
smiling through my fake veneers 
                        Em 
You were just a girl to me 
                         C 
I couldn't buy to master key 
                          D 
To your heart to set your free 
                          C 
Then go sail the Highland bays 
    D         G   C 
The bays, the bays

Times a healer By the way 
                              C 
I changed it all on new years day 
                            D

               G 
Now you are my Fiancé 
G 
Twos together 
       Em7 
Twos a team 
                         C 
I'm wide awake its not a dream 
                         D 
Now the summer shines on me 
                        C 
I can tell the world it seems 
D            G     C 
It seems, it seems

                      Em7 
In the distance I can see 
                        C 
On her eyes its you and me 
                       D 
By the cute oak cherry tree 
                      G 
Making loving harmony 
                             Em 
Till the day our breath goes cold 
                         C 
And the candle starts to blow 
                      D 
I will always be with you 
                          C 
And I'm singing that it's true 
D         G        C 
its true, its true
