[Intro]
G C G C
[Verse 1]
G C
You should have been at home watching TV
G C
You should have been annoying your father and me
Em D
You should have been hanging around with your friends
G D
Out until dawn like the day never ends
[Verse 2]
G C
You should have been talking on your mobile phone
G C
Or playing daft games until the cows came home
Em D
lnstead you went to fight in this war
G D
And I'm not gonna see you no more
[Chorus]
Em D
Oh my darling, what have they done?
Em D
Your life is over before it's begun
C G
You did your best to see this thing through
Em D
But all we have now are memories of you
[Instrumental]
G C G C Em D Em D
[Verse 3]
G C
You should have been learning how to drive a car
G C
Playing loud music or even guitar
Em D
lnstead you went to fight in the war
G D
l'm not even sure what it's all for
[Chorus]
Em D
Oh my darling, what have they done?
Em D
They gave you a rifle or some kind of gun
C G
You did your best to see this thing through
Em D
But all we have now are memories of you
Em D
But all we have now are memories of you
Em D G
But all we have now are memories of you
[Outro]
