The Years We Shared From the album Runrig - The Story 2016 (C & R MacDonald) [Intro] G G/B G G/B [Verse 1]
G                    C       G    Em
You bloomed like the rose of summer

      C        Am    D
And I held you in my arms 

Em                    G        D
And in that knowing I found purpose 

    C            D   Dsus4  D
We walked on the stars

    G              C      G     Em
The world changes, we get older 

     C                  Am       D
What comes in love must leave in pain

Em                   G      D
And all the gifts we early treasure

    C           D    G  
The world takes away. 
[Chorus]
    C        D    Dsus4
The years we shared 

G                            Em
Will find their beating in a heart somewhere

    C                          D  Dsus4 
But the traces of our greatest days 

          G          C     D    G
Will fade away 
[Verse 2]
G             C         G      Em 
From the pier the ships are leaving

     C       Am       D
The seeds to saplings grow 

Em             G       D
Saplings first turn to forests 

     C        D   Dsus4   D
Then ships of oak

G               C           G     Em
Fair winds blow through the journey

      C         Am    D
And I watch you from afar 

Em         G       D
Sailing on distant oceans 

C          D     G  
Of eternal calm.
[Chorus]
    C        D    Dsus4
The years we shared 

G                            Em
Will find their beating in a heart somewhere

    C                          D  Dsus4 
But the traces of our greatest days 

          G          C     D    G
Will fade away 
[Chorus]
    C        D    Dsus4
The years we shared 

G                            Em
Will find their beating in a heart somewhere

    C                          D  Dsus4 
But the traces of our greatest days 

          G          C     D    G
Will fade away                     
[Break] C D G Em C D G C D C D G Em C D G C D Dsus4 [Bridge]
C           D
When it all started, 

G            Em    D
it came like poetry 

C            D      G           C   D   G
A vision our truth awakened
[Chorus]
    C        D       Dsus4
The years we shared (the years we shared)

G                            Em
Will find their beating in a heart somewhere

    C                          D  Dsus4 
But the traces of our greatest days 

          G          C     D    G
Will fade away               
[Chorus]
    C        D    Dsus4
The years we shared 

G                            Em
Will find their beating in a heart somewhere

    C                          D  Dsus4 
But the traces of our greatest days 

          G          C     D    G
Will fade away            (Will fade
