Verse:
We [G]lended our heavy [Em]hearts,
mot[G]ors with broken [Em]parts,
C C G Em
we had a deck of cards it was a start.
We'[G]d sit out in the[Em] sun,
an[G]d wait for our sk[Em]in to turn,
C
you would ask for truth,
C G Em
and I would look for something to burn.
Chorus:
[F]Oh we walked in a [C]hallowed place back [Em]then
the edge of Dublin, [Am]the edge of May and [F]June.
Oh to live in a [C]paper house a[Em]gain,
[Am]where we grew [C]by the light of the [G]moon.[Em]
[G] [Em]
Of[G]ten we took the [Em]train,
th[G]e sky pacing white to [Em]grey,
C
when you or I would leave
C
and the others would stay.
We[G] were all that we [Em]had
and [G]breathed in each others [Em]word,
C
I would ask for truth
C G Em
and you'd look for something to burn.
Chorus
[G] [Em]
Yo[G]u were much younger [Em]then,
yo[G]unger than I am [Em]now,
C C
I still keep as much an eye as the wires allow,
C C
I still keep as much an eye as the wires allow.
Chorus
[G] [Em] [G] [Em]
[F]Oh you know what [C]you are to [Em]me
and you know you will [Am]always [F]be.

The intro shows how the chords are played throughout the song.
During the chorus Em is played like this:
e|--------|
B|---0----|
G|-----0--|
D|----2---|
A|--2-----|
E|--------|
Unfortunately I wasn't sure about how the diffrent C-chords are called.
