[G]Looking back at [D]white and black re[Em]minders of my [D]past
[G]Smoky bars and [D]cheap guitars but [Em]nothing built to [D]last
[D]Nothing ever [Em]stays [C]Nothing comes to [G]mind
[D]No one can e[Em]rase The [C]days we left be[G]hind [D] [C]
[G]See the boys of [D]Dungeon Lane a[Em]long the Mersey [D]shore
[G]Some of them will [D]feel the pain but [Em]some were meant for [D]more
And [D]nothing stays the [Em]same [C]No one needs to [G]cry
[D]Nothing can re[Em]claim the [C]days we left be[G]hind
[Em]We met at Forthlin Road [Bm]And wrote a secret code [Em]To never be [Bm]spoken
[G]I stand by what I said [D]The promise that I made [C]Will never be [D]broken
[D]Nothing ever [Em]stays [C]Nothing comes to [G]mind
[D]No one can e[Em]rase The [C]days we left be[G]hind
[G]In the skies the [D]skylarks rise A[Em]bove the sounds of [D]war
[G]Since that day I [D]knew they’d stay With [Em]me for ever[D]more
’Cause [D]nothing stays the [Em]same [C]No one needs to [G]cry
[D]Nothing can re[Em]claim the [C]days we left be[G]hind
