 Lest We forget
 
 D G Em7 Asus D G Em7 
      
 Your deeds as a younger man
 
 Asus D G Em7 Asus 
     
 Like how when you were nine, you fell in love because
 
 D G Em7 Asus 
    
 she was the first girl you'd seen throw a cricket ball
 
 D G Em7 Asus D G Em7 Asus 
        
 You knew that you'd be together for the rest of your lives
 
 D G Em7 Asus 
    
 Now you sit alone in the sun in the backyard
 
 D G Em7 Asus 
    
 feeding the birds, reading the newspaper
 
 D G Em7 Asus D G Em7 Asus 
        
 thinking about the love that you shouldn't have lost
 
 D G Em7 Asus 
    
 //: Love that you lost, love that you shouldn't have://
 
 D G Em7 Asus D G Em7 Asus 
        
 Love that you lost, love that you shouldn't have lost
 
 //: D / D / G / G / Em7 / Em7 / Asus4 / A7 ://
 
 
 D G Em7 Asus 
    
 When I was a child I didn't see her much
 
 D G Em7 Asus 
    
 She passed away before I was five
 
 D G Em7 Asus D G Em7 Asus 
        
 I was so young that it barely affected my life
 
 D G Em7 Asus 
    
 Then one day when I asked you told me she was magnificent
 
 D G Em7 Asus 
    
 All that I had was your word and her photograph
 
 D G Em7 Asus D G Em7 Asus 
        
 But one look in your eyes told me all that I needed to know
 
 D G Em7 Asus 
    
 //: Love that you lost, love that you shouldn't have://
 
 Love that you lost, love that you shouldn't have lost
 
 Love that you lost, love that we shouldn't have
 
 Love that you lost, love that you shouldn't have
 
 Love that we lost, love that we shouldn't have lost
