[G]Remember that [Em]New [D]Years E[C]ve
We were fr[D]ightened by a fi[G]rework?
[G]You could [Em]not b[D]el[C]ieve the f[D]uss I ma[G]de
[G]I should have [Em]laughed i[D]t o[C]ff
I sho[D]uld have left it l[G]ying
[G]I did n[Em]ot r[D]ece[C]ive [D]much sympathy

[G]Remember that [Em]we w[D]ere p[C]oor
Though so y[D]oung as not to n[G]otice
[G]We could [Em]ill-a[D]ffo[C]rd to p[D]aint the t[G]own
[G]You had your [Em]fathe[D]r's ch[C]arm
And t[D]hus your mother's Vo[G]lvo
[G]It wasn't[Em] long [D]be[C]fore you d[D]rove me home
Dadd12 (that is, play 5th fret on high E string)
It took until October
Cadd12 (that is, play 3rd fret on high E string)
To win you over

[G]Remember that [Em]New Y[D]ear's Ev[C]e
We were f[D]rightened by a f[G]irework?
[G]When I'd w[Em]atch [D]you l[C]eave, the f[D]uss I m[G]ade
[G]I made my[Em]self c[D]alm d[C]own
And I m[D]ade myself a pr[G]omise:
[G]I would [Em]not c[D]oncei[C]ve of taking [D]no for an answer
[D/F#]Though you kept me guessing and your [Cadd12]distance
Were it not for my per[Em]sistence
We would n[Bm]ever have been l[G]overs
[D/F#]You kept your distance and me g[Cadd12]uessing
Finally acqu[Em]iescing
only a[Bm]fter I'd disc[G]overed
[D/F#]You kept the things I sent you
[Cadd12]The lengths I went to
Great lengths...
