This is a pretty fun song. I didn't write out everything but it's pretty easy to figure 
what goes where. I know the chords aren't what the heathers play but it sounds pretty 
to me!
Capo on 3rd fret!
Standard Tuning!
Intro –  G–  Cadd9–  D- D  
VERSE:
GIf I was to Cadd9tell you a story, would you Dkeep it to yourself and not tell anybody else?
   G    Cadd9Like you've done Dbefore.
GIf I was to Cadd9pass you on a secret would you Dlock it up and keep it in a room full of keys
    G     Cadd9So it wouldn't get Dlost?

  Walking...down......Road.....day
Well, I was walking down the road one day when I spied a building that had fallen to decay.
Underneath all the rocks and rubble and memories, were hundreds and billions of 
stories.
So I crawled inside and I gathered them up and I read what they said like anybody would
To my surprise they just happened to be a complete mirror image of my life story
CHORUS:  G-  Cadd9-  G- D  
GDo you realise that Cadd9when you are young, you Gtend to take for granted what
Deverybody's done?
GDo you realise that Cadd9when you are young, you Gtend to turn an eye from the
Dthings that mean the most and,
Do you realise that when you are young, the things you take so seriously mean nothing at all
Do you realise that when you are young, the stories you recall are the influential sort.
VERSE:
So I, I went and told you that story, didn't keep it to yourself went and told everybody 
To my surprise.
But I, I didn't let it get me down, I don't often take these stories as they clearly 
to sound. Because most of the time they're lies.
OTHER PART OF THE VERSE:
Believe it or not I retraced my steps and I carried on walking back to where we first 
the stories we shared strewn all over the ground. The stories we shared, I wish I'd never found.
GBut I glued them back together, hoCadd9ping everything would be better, and Gwe'd
be back together. EveryDthing would be fine.
These things are meant to happen. And the evidence not forgotten. Everything will be 
everything will be fine.
