Your Possible Pasts Akor - Pink

D                                  Em
They flutter behind you your possible pasts,
     G                          A              D
Some brighteyed and crazy, some frightened and lost
  D                              Em
A warning to anyone still in command
G                 A               D
Of their possible future, to take care
   D                                 Em
In derelict sidings the poppies entwine
     G                      A                 D
With cattle trucks lying in wait for the next time
Bm
Do you remember me, how we used to be,
                         A
Do you think we shoud be closer?
 
    D                                       Em
She stood in the doorway, the ghost of a smile
G                        A           D
Haunting her face like a cheap hotel sign
    D                                     Em
Her cold eyes imploring the men in their macs
        G                         A               D
For the gold in their bags or the knives in their backs
D                                   Em
Stepping up boldly one put out his hand
          G                      A                D
He said, I was just a child then, now I'm only a man
Bm
Do you remember me,  how we used to be,
                          A
Do you think we should be closer?
 
Bm  G  Bm  G  Bm  A  G  A  Gmaj9
 
       D                                    Em
By the cold and religious we were taken in hand
      G                    A            D
Shown how to feel good and told to feel bad
D                                      Em
Strung out behind us the banners and flags
       G                     A           D
Of our possible pasts lie in tatters and rags
Bm
Do you remember me, how we used to be,
                          A
Do you think we should be closer?
