[Intro] (Am) (Bb  C  Am  Dm)
        Bb  Am  Gm  F7M

F#m
I came across a cache of old photos
G/E
And invitations to teenage parties
F#m
"Dress in white" one said, with quotations
G/E
From someone's wife, a famous writer
         G/A         A7
In the nineteen-twenties
D
When you're young you find inspiration
G6
In anyone who's ever gone
C
And opened up a closing door
Am
She said: "We were never feeling bored

[Estribillo]
                       Bb
'Cause we were never being boring
C                Am                 Dm
We had too much time to find for ourselves
                   Bb
And we were never being boring  e-chords.com
C                   Am                         Dm
We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends"
                    Bb              Am
And we were never holding back or worried that
Gm                     F7M
Time would come to an end"

F#m
When I went I left from the station
     G/E
With a haversack and some trepidation
F#m
Someone said: "If you're not careful
        G/E
You'll have nothing left and nothing to care for
             G/A      A7
In the nineteen-seventies"
D
But I sat back and looking forward
G6
My shoes were high and I had scored
C
I'd bolted through a closing door
Am                                  A
I would never find myself feeling bored

                      Bb
'Cause we were never being boring
C                Am                  Dm
We had too much time to find for ourselves
                    Bb
And we were never being boring
C                  Am                           Dm
We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends"
                   Bb                Am
And we were never holding back or worried that
Gm                     F7M
Time would come to an end

                 Bb             Am
We were always hoping that, looking back
            Gm               F7M  (Em  F7M)
You could always rely on a friend
F#m
Now I sit with different faces
G/E
In rented rooms and foreign places
F#m
All the people I was kissing
G/E
Some are here and some are missing
           G/A      A7
In the nineteen-nineties
D
I never dreamt that I would get to be
G6
The creature that I always meant to be
C
But I thought in spite of dreams
Am                                    A
You'd be sitting somewhere here with me

                      Bb
'Cause we were never being boring
C                Am                  Dm
