[verse]
 
C#m B A E
I didn't want to write this song
C#m B D#m G# C#m
becuase I love you and you've been my friend so long
B A E
We were the same when we were young
D#m A/B
living it two as one
 
We shared our money and our clothes
we shaded the pain that noone else could ever know
A prison cell we made a home
doing it on our own
 
All thought the scraped and all the narrow escapes
you pulled me through you made me feel like I was not insane
We promised that we'd never change
holding out on the edge
 
[chorus]
 
E G#
Today
C#m A
life's a different story
E G#
Today
C#m G#
Sad and yet not sad in a
E G#
way
C#m A
People never do stay the
E G#
same
C#m G# D#m A/H
and the runaway brothers have had their day
 
[verse]
 
Remember on your wedding day
I must admit I had the strangest feeling then
Outside the church we took some flak
Both throwing up round the back
 
But now when we meet up today
it don't seem right that we just don't know what to say
Both stood there staring at our shoes
not knowing what to do
 
[chorus]
 
Today
life's a different story
Today
Sad and yet not sad in a
way
People never do stay the same
and the runaway brothers have had their day
