Keaton Henson – Old Lovers In Dressing Rooms (Guitar)

C  G            F       C
It wasn't very long for us

            G              F       C
When you're young it isn't hard to trust

Am               F    G
I told her I was seventeen

                              F         C     F
She said that's how she still remembers me

C G            F        C
I haven't many words to say

  G                 F     C
I thought about you every day

    Am             F    G
And she seems disappointed

                        F     C     F
When I say that I'm not happy yet

C                    F         G
And I ask her if she liked the show

                             F   C
She says she heard me on the radio

         G                  F        G
And only works a few blocks down the street

                               F       C
She leaves her coat on but she takes a seat

C                       (G)        F
Was it really that worth writing about?

                             G    Am
They say your record deal is over now

C                           (G)      F
And did you love me like the way you wrote?

            G   F         G    C     F
Well I'm afraid so, I'm afraid so

C  G                F     C
She tells me she is happy now

           G                  F      C
She really loves him and they have a house

          Am               F           G
I say I'm glad for her and should have known

                         F    C     F
I have one too now but I live alone

C               (G)          F
Is it really you behind that beard?

                        G         Am
I say I think so and we count the years

C                     (G)      F
We tell stories and we sort of laugh

             G                  F        C
And then she jokes she wants my autograph

C          (G)                    F
And was it really how you sing it dear?

                         G         Am
Oh I remember worse than blood and tears

C                            (G)     F
And did you love me like the way you wrote?

         G      F       G      C
Well I'm afraid so, I'm afraid so

C   G                   F      C
She smiles and says she has to go

    G               F    C
I'm left in silence all alone

 Am               F               G
'Til they come and say I've gotta leave

                             F        C
They say there's people that I have to meet
