[Verse 1]
 
G    Am            G/B                                 C    G/B           Am
Well theres three versions of this story mine & yours and then the truth
G   Am     G/B                                    C          G/B      A
And we can put it down to circumstance, our childhood, then our youth
D7                      Em                          C
Out of some sentimental gain I wanted you to feel my pain, 
                           G Am G/B
But it came back return to sender
D7                            Em                                  C
I read your mind and tried to call, my tears could fill the Albert Hall, 
                           D       (Dsus4 D)
Is this the sound of sweet surrender?
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                G Am7 C
What a shame we never listened
   D                   G Am7 C
I told you through the television
    D             G            Am7        C
And all that went away was the price we paid
D              Em            A7
People spend a lifetime this way
          D
Oh what a shame.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
G  Am    G/B                   C    G/B       Am
So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus
     G   Am        G/B                        C       G/B    A
Ooo, And with your poster 30 foot high at the back of Toys-R-Us
D7                     Em                            C
I wrote a letter in my mind, but the words were so unkind,
                      G Am G/B
About a man I can’t remember
D7                         Em                                C
I don’t recall the reasons why, I must have meant them at the time,
                              D (Dsus4 D)
Is this the sound of sweet surrender?
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                G Am7 C
What a shame we never listened
   D                   G Am7 C
I told you through the television
    D              G           Am7      C
And all that went away was the price we paid
D              Em            A7
People spend a lifetime this way
    Em               A7
And that’s how they stay
          D
Oh what a shame.
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
G     E7   A     Am   D7      G
Words come easy, when they’re true
G     E7   A     Am   D7      G
Words come easy, when they’re true
 
G        Am7           C         D    Dsus4     G
So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus
              Am7       C                D       Dsus4  G
And with your poster 30 foot high at the back of Toys-R-Us
           Am7            C                 D
Now we can put it down to circumstance, our childhood then our youth.
 
 
[Chorus]

What a shame we never listened
   D                   G Am7 C

    D              G           Am7      C
And all that went away was the price we paid
D              Em            A7
People spend a lifetime this way
    Em               A7
And thats how they stay
               Em            A7
People spend a lifetime this way
          D              G Am G/B
Oh what a shame, what a shame         
C   G/B A
