  Well there’s three versions of this story mine & yours and then the truth 
Bb    Cm     Bb/D			      Eb         Bb/D                    C 
  And we can put it down to circumstance, our childhood, then our youth

Out of some sentimental gain I wanted you to feel my pain, but it came back return to sender 
F7			      Gm	                   (Bb/F)               Eb                                                     (Fsus4 F) 
I read your mind and tried to call, my tears could fill the Albert Hall, is this the  of sweet surrender? 

                Bb    Cm7     Eb  F 
What a shame we never listened 
                       Bb  Cm7   Eb  F 
I told you through the television 
                   Bb          Cm7      Eb   F 
And all that went away was the price we paid 
               Gm            C 
People spend a lifetime this way 
          Fsus4 
Oh what a shame. 

Bb   Cm    Bb/D			   Eb   Bb/D      Cm7 
  So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus 
Bb    Cm        Bb/D	              Eb                          C 
 And with your poster 30 foot at the back of Toys-R-Us 
F7		                        Gm	               (Bb/F)                                                  Bb   Cm  Bb/D 
I wrote a letter in my mind, but the words were so unkind, about a man I can’t remember 
F7		           Gm	                      ( Bb/F )  Eb                F        (Fsus4 F) 
I don’t recall the reasons why, I must have meant them at the time, is this the sound of surrender? 

                Bb    Cm7     Eb  F 
What a shame we never listened 
                       Bb  Cm7   Eb  F 
I told you through the television 
                   Bb          Cm7      Eb   F 
And all that went away was the price we paid 
               Gm            C 
People spend a lifetime this way 
    Gm              C 
And that’s how they stay 
          F 
Oh what a shame. 

Bb    Gm   C     Cm7  F       Bb 
Words come easy, when they’re true

Now we can put it down to circumstance, our childhood then our youth.
