Intro: Am7 G Am7 G Am7 G Em D (2x)



Am7            G 
    it's been years 
         Am7             G 
since we     carved our names 
     Am7             G 
on a     clocktower door 
       Em           D 
before everything changed 

        Am7           G 
we were     big eyed boys 
         Am7               G 
with the     salt on our skin 
         Am7            G            A7 
and we'd     throw our kites to the wind 
  

               Em     G      C  C/B Am7 
and they'd fly on and on and on and on 
Em        G      C  C/B Am7 
   on and on and on and on 
Em        G      C  C/B Am7 
   on and on and on and on

Am7            G 
    it's been years 
         Am7            G 
since we     whispered soft 
         Am7             G 
with the     torch light on 
        Em        D 
and the big light off 

        Am7        G 
we were     tired boys 
         Am7              G 
with the     soap on our skin 
         Am7         G           A7 
and we'd     fall asleep to the wind 
  

               Em     G      C  C/B Am7 
and we'd dream on and on and on and on 
Em        G      C  C/B Am7 
   on and on and on and on 
Em        G      C  C/B Am7 
   on and on and on and on 
  

           G 
cos we're circles 
       Bm7        Am7 
we're circles you see 
       G               Bm7 
we go round round the sun 
       C    C/B      Am7 
in and out like the sea 
      G            B7 
i'll circle round you 
          Em           C 
you will circle round me 
  

Am7 G Am7 G Am7 G Em D 


Am7         G 
    and in years 
         Am7              G 
when the     torch light thins 
        Am7                G 
and the     clock tower's gone 
        Em         D 
and the big light dims 

         Am7            G 
we'll no     longer be boys 
           Am7               G 
we'll have     lines on our skin 
            Am7            G               A7 
and they'll     throw our dust to the wind
