Intro
G# Fm C# D# G# Fm C# D#
WE WE WE WE WE WE WE WE
VERSE:
G# Fm
We met in fancy dress,
C# D#
That's how it was to be
G# Fm
But I never was prepared to cope
C# D#
With all your idiosyncracies
G# Fm
And in the cold light of the day,
C# D#
Things don't always look the same
G# Fm
I wondered were you really ill
C# D#
Or did you always look that way
CHORUS:
Fm D#
It was here in the outer limits
C# C
It was oh, such a long, long time ago
Fm D#
I was so happy, happy in the outer limits
C# C
I just never wanted to go!
VERSE:
G# Fm
What she collected in glass jars,
C# D#
that was all of her and not mine
G# Fm
Because she spent all of her evenings,
C# D#
and the rest of us were tight
G# Fm
Her strange habits, her strange hobbies
C# D#
made strange noises in the night
G# Fm
Ooh, I guess I knew, all along,
C# D#
something wasn't right
CHORUS:
Fm D#
It was here in the outer limits
C# C
It was oh, such a long, long time ago
Fm D#
I was so happy, happy in the outer limits
C# C Fm D# C# C
I just never wanted to go, oh!

BRIDGE:
A#m
I asked her to change her ways
D#
She wouldn't even try

I used to always tell her

Look, I'm just an ordinary guy
A#m
But then they caught her,
They questioned me,

I'm just a regular guy,
Fm D# C# C Fm
No, Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

D#
Please, don't take me away!
C#
No! I didn't know what she was!
Cm
I didn't know who she was!

NOTE: This is Probably NOT in the exact same tuning
that they play the song in. Their guitars
are probably tuned a little different
then standard tuning. This works for me
