intro: F Fsus4 B Bsus4
F
Well we were born within an hour of each other
Our mothers said we could be sister and brother
Bb
Your name is deborah. Deborah, it never suited you
F
And they said that when we grew up
We’d get married and never split up
Bb
We never did, although i often thought of it
Cm
Oh deborah, do you recall?
Your house was very small
With woodchips on the wall
Cm2
And when i came round to call
You didnt notice me at all . . . .
Bb
And i said, lets all meet up in the year 2000
Dm Gm
won’t it be strange when we’re all fully grown
Cm F
Be there 2 o’clock by the fountain down the road
Bb
I never knew that you’d get married
Dm Gm
I would be living down here on my own
Cm F
On that damp and lonely thursday years ago
(chords as verse1)
you were the first girl in school to get breasts
Martin said that you were the best
the boys all loved you, but i was a mess
i had to watch them try to get you undressed
We were freinds that was as far as it went
I used to walk you home sometimes but it meant
Oh it meant nothing to you
cos you were, oh so popular
BRIDGE, CHORUS (x2)
