03 - Oh My What A Shame chords
Start Jamming...
They were married in [G]
the old [F] churchyard
[C] And they promised [Am] to be true [D] to each other
[Am] No matter how [Em] hard their [Dm] lives [E] might be
But [D] like meteors [A] that fell [Am] through moments [A] parallel
They were soon to cross and on [Dm] different plots [F] of earth.
They both did [E] fall
Though [Dm] their lives [G] had really not been [Am] hard at all.
Oh my what [F] a shame
[Am] No one's to [C] blame it just happened [Bm] that way and [Am] there's nothing you can say
[D] when two people [G] say Goodbye
[E] [Am]
[G]
[F] [C]
[Bm] [F] [Am]
Two brothers
[G] promised they'd [F] return
[C] When the [Bm] war that they were [Am]
fighting [D] was over
[Am] But only [G] one lived to [F] keep [E] his vow
And the story I [A] was told [Am] said he lived [A] to be quite old [Am] before time won out
[Dm] Someone asked if [F] he knew what they [E] both fought for
But he [Dm] could not [G] recall he'd ever been [Am] to
Oh my what [F] a shame
[Am] No [C] one's to blame it just happened [Bm] that way [Am] and there's nothing you can [Em]
say [D] when two [F] people say
[E] Goodbye
[Am] For there's nothing you can [C] say when it's [F] over [Am] and there's nothing [G] you can do [F] when it's done
[Am]
There's no battle you can [G] win and [D] there's nothing to [B]
begin
[E] begun
In [Am] this moment.
[G] I recall your face
[C] And I [Bm] wonder if you still think [D] about me
[Am]
Occasionally [Em] I still [F] think [E] of you
And [D] I watch the river flow [Am] and I know I must [A] let go
[Am] But it's oh so hard
[Dm] For the waves are all around my [E] small canoe.
[A] I
Had [Dm] always hoped [G] this boat could carry [Am] two.
Oh my [F] what a shame
[Am] You know [C] one's to blame it just happened that [G] way and [Am] there's nothing you [C] can say
[A] when two [Em] people say
[E] Goodbye
[Am] [A] [F]
