When It Was Ours

E                  A
A Daffodil a rusty swing
         B                    E
A broken bench where once sat King
E                          A
A mouldy doll looks to the stars
           B                                 E
And it was mine and it was yours when it was ours

Verse 2
E                               A
A withered tree where birds did sing
         B             E
A broken song upon the wing
E                                   A
Those feathered hearts looked up to mars
            B                                E
When it was mine and it was yours and it was ours

Chorus
       C#m             G#m
It was ours when I was yours
            A
Before this place went on all fours
         F#m            B
Now it's under lock and key
         E            E7
it isn't you it isn't me
           C#m
It's other couples falling walls
     A
It's other couples punctured balls
               F#m             B
No wasp filled jars or last hurrahs
             E
Now it ain't ours

Verse 3
E                            A
The conversation the whisper laugh
       B                 E
Is overgrown like garden path
E                              A
The twisted branch the crooked stairs
       B                              E
It was yours it was mine now it's all theirs

Verse 4
E                        A
The bicycle with buckled wheel
            B                 E
Lays on the grass like how we feel
E                         A
A sparrow dies then Eagle soars
             B                               E
Now it's all theirs no longer mine no longer yours

Chorus
       C#m             G#m
It was ours when I was yours
            A
Before this place went on all fours
         F#m            B
Now it's under lock and key
         E            E7
it isn't you it isn't me
           C#m
It's other couples falling walls
     A
It's other couples punctured balls
               F#m             B
No wasp filled jars or last hurrahs
             E
Now it ain't ours

Verse  3
E                           A
Revisit graveyards pubs and clubs
             B                     E
But don't go back to the place you love
E                              A
They quickly return to distant shores
                 B                             E
When they're not ours no longer mine no longer yours

Chorus
       C#m             G#m
It was ours when I was yours
            A
Before this place went on all fours
         F#m            B
Now it's under lock and key
         E            E7
it isn't you it isn't me
           C#m
It's other couples falling walls
     A
It's other couples punctured balls
               F#m             B
No wasp filled jars or last hurrahs
             E
Now it ain't ours
