Verse:
EmBm We can remember swimming in December
CEmBm Heading for the city lights in 1975
EmBm We share in each other nearer than father
CEmBm The scent of a lemon drips from your eyes
Chorus:
Em We are the people that rule the world
Bm A force running in every boy and girl
C All rejoicing in the world
EmBm Take me now – we can try
Verse:
EmBm We lived an adventure love in the summer
CEmBm Followed the sun till night reminiscing other times of life
EmBm For each every other the feeling was stronger
CEmBm The shock hit eleven – got lost in your eyes
Bridge:
CEm I can’t do well when I think you’re gonna leave me
D But I know I try
C Are you gonna leave me now
EmD Can’t you be believing now
Verse - same chords as first Verse -:
Can you remember and humanise
It was still where we’d energised
Lie in the sand and visualise like it’s 75 again
Chorus:
Em We are the people that rule the world
Bm A force running in every boy and girl
C All rejoicing in the world
EmBm Take me now – we can try
Verse - same chords as first Verse -:
I know everything about you
You know everything about me
Know everything about us
