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

BRIDGE:
G#m
I asked her to change her ways
C#
She wouldn't even try
B
I used to always tell her
D#m
Look, I'm just an ordinary guy
G#m
But then they caught her,
They questioned me,
C#
I had to testify
B
But I used to always tell
A#
I'm just a regular guy,
D#m C# B A# D#m
No, Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
OUTRO:
C#
Please, don't take me away!
B
No! I didn't know what she was!
A#m
I didn't know who she was!
D#m
I only loved her....
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
