D               G
Grew up with a borrowed name
D                 G
A little heart of porcelain
A             G
Here a hustle then a shove
D             G
A kid to take advantage of
A                Bm
I guess it was a big surprise
G                                D   G   D   G
When I appeared before your very eyes
D              G
Brothers yea I had a few
D                       G
I know they thought the world of you
A                       G
In your eyes they could do no wrong
D             G
Me that was a different song
A             Bm
My life was a compromise
G                             D  G  D
As I grew up before your very eyes
G                    Bm
I know your life was misery
A            D
So deep and wide
Bm         G       Em           A
My lifes a memory  ten stories high
G               D              A
When I left for London in the rains of 62
G           D               A
When I left home it didn't mean that much to you
G          Bm              Em
Now I look back on all the changes
       A               D         G        D   G
I went through growing up in the rains of 62
D                G
I still remember coming home
D              G
Running to the telephone
A                  G
In time to hear somebody say
D                     G
You'd better get here right away
A                   Bm
Your dad he left us in the night
G                               D   G  D  G
He's disappeared before our very eyes
G                    Bm
I know your life was misery
A            D
So deep and wide
Bm         G       Em           A
My lifes a memory  ten stories high
G               D             A
When I left for London in the rains of 62
G           D               A
When I left home it didn't mean that much to you
G          Bm              Em
Now I look back on all the changes
       A                G   D
I went through growing up

When I left for London in the rains of 62
G           D               A
When I left home it didn't mean that much to you
