G  Bm  G  Bm  G  Bm  G  Bm
 
G             Bm               C
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine
 
             G    D
All we could do
 
 
Em
No shakes or coughs or burst relief
 
   Bm
Or lists of all our things
 
     C              G       D
Just minutes making minds
 
 
G             Bm               C
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine
 
             G    D
All we could do
 
Em
But the makers never made
 
    Bm
The comers never came
 
    D
But I still felt that awful news
 
 
       Em
It was patience that we had
 
        Bm
And the miles we had left
 
     D
That held us there until we could let go
 
 
G             Bm               C
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine
 
             G           D
And it'll be over soon
 
Em
No moon children or people's sun
 
   Bm
Or ringing in my ears
 
     D
When I still felt that awful news
 
 
       Em
It was patience that we had
 
        Bm
And the miles we had left
 
     D
That held us there until we could let go
 
 
       Em
It was patience that we had
 
        Bm
And the miles we had left
 
     D
That held us there until we could let go
 
 
G             Bm               C
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine
 
             G    D
All we could do
 
Em     Bm
Not in birth or body
 
C                 G     D
But only in our minds
 
Em     Bm
Not in birth or body
 
D
I still felt that awful news
 
 
       Em
It was patience that we had
 
        Bm
And the miles we had left
 
     D
That held us there until we could let go
 
 
       Em
It was patience that we had
 
        Bm
And the miles we had left
 
     D
That held us there until we could let go

Should be Em at the start of the "the patience that we had" rather than G
