C
It seems so long, so many years,
F C
Since that old school song echoed in my ears.
G C
You made plans - I played in a Band.
C
You wanted flowers and walks in the park,
F C
I wanted sound-checks and getting up after dark.
G C
You made plans - I played in a Band.
CHORUS:
C
Did you marry anyone? Have you got some sprogs? Did you buy a big house? Have you got a pet dog?
F C
Did it all turn out how you wanted it to be?
G C
Did you have a nice life without me?
C
We were young, I didn't understand.
F C
Life was fun, no time for making plans.
G C
You made plans - I played in a Band.
REPEAT CHORUS:
BREAK:
A E C
(Your friends all wanted) "our tunes" and school run 4 x 4's
F C G G
and my friends just practice indoors
A E C
(Your friends all) booked their honeymoons. And bought their wedding cakes
F C G G
My friends just got in the way.

BREAK:
A E C
(Your mum said) "give him the elbow, he's running your life"
F C G G
And my mum said "you'd make a lovely wife".
A E C
(Your brother told me) "piss off or he'd knock me down the stairs" -
F C G G
What a love affair.
C
Then our dreams grew up and went their separate ways.
F C
Two young lovers - a lifetime away
G C
You made plans - I played in a Band.
CHORUS:
C
Did you marry anyone? Have you got some sprogs? Did you buy a big house? Have you got a pet dog?
F C
Did it all turn out how you wanted it to be?
G C
Did you have a nice life without me?
G F C
Did you have a nice life without me?
