Verse 1
Times were so tough, (C major)
but not as tough as they are now (G major) (A major) (G major)
We were so close (C major) and nothing came between (E minor) us,
and the world (A major)
No (F sharp major) personal situ (D major) ations (G major)
Thick as thieves us,
(C major) we'd stick together for all time (G major) (A major) (G major)
And we meant it (C major) but it turns
out just for a (E minor) while
We stole, (A major) the friendship (F sharp major) that
bound us together

And (A major) always be as thick as thieves

We stole the (G major) love from young

says you (D major) are free
We stole (G major) everything that we (D major) could see

We stole the green (G major) belt fields
that made us (D major) believe
We stole (G major) everything that (D major) we could see
Verse 8
But something (G major) came along that changes (D major) our minds
(we're no longer thick as thieves)
I don't (G major) know what and I don't (D major) know why
(we're not thick as we used to be)
But we seemed (G major) to grow up in a flash (D major) of
time (we're no longer thick as thieves)
While we watched (G major) our ideals helplessly (D major) unwind
(we're not thick as we used to (G major) be)
