Tom: G

      Em                      G
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
   Em                         G
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.

[Verse 1]
                Em                                                 G
Pull yourself together, write you ma a letter, let her know you're sorry and you’re missing home.
                  Em                                                     G
"Nothing lasts forever" is something to remember when you're getting old.
                      Em                                                      G
Your heart ran out of gas, you're doing things by halves, you’re borrowing my time when I need it back.

[Pre-Chorus]
            C       G           D                D
And now I'm feeling down again,   but then, I've always felt this way.

[Chorus]
Em                  G       Em                G     Em            G
  All my love is forgotten,   EA  lost in the mail,   no more ammunition.
                  Em                                            G
Why don't we keep calm, carry on, pray to God and repeat again.

[Interlude]
      Em                      G
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
   Em                         G
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.

[Verse 2]
               Em                                           G
Meet me at the bar, show you all my scars, get to know each other then I throw it out.
                 Em                                                    G
Treat you like a brother, we'll huddle under cover in the smoking yard.
                   Em                                        G
I'll show you mine if you show me yours, I'll be your friend   forevermore.
