Verse 1:
          G/B                     A7sus4             G
You might see me in the papers or hear me on the radio, 
        G/B                   A7sus4            G           A
And you probably imagine that i'd forgotten you long, long ago, 

G                    A7sus4
Well i couldn't if i tried, 
G                               A7sus4
though you might think i tell a lie,
          G                   A7sus4       
well i'll hold you in my memory from now,
          G     A7sus4
until the day i die

Chorus:
C                  D
Bomber jackets and young girls smiles,
G              C
Valentines and county trials, 
C              D
meetin' at the mercy gates,
    G           C
all afternoon i couldn't wait
C                D              G     A (riff)
my thoughts were just of kissin you


Verse 2:(same chords)

Well i might be mistaken but i think we've met somewhere before
was i drunk and stoned and dancing on some salt hill disco's slippy floor
with your nose on someone's shoulder, 
slow dancin' tightly intertwined,
i wish we'd swapped our partners and continued
dancin til the end of time, 

Chorus 2:
C                  D
Bomber jackets and young girls smiles,
G              C
Valentines and county trials, 
C              D
meetin' at the mercy gates,
    G           C
all afternoon i couldn't wait
C                D
Duffel coats and desert boots
        G                 C
and the teachers spoke of Brian Boru,
C                D              G     A
my thoughts were just of kissin you
C                D              G     A (riff)
my thoughts were just of kissin you
