Intro
D Bm G A D Bm G A
WE WE WE WE WE WE WE WE
VERSE:
D Bm
We met in fancy dress,
G A
That's how it was to be
D Bm
But I never was prepared to cope
G A
With all your idiosyncracies
D Bm
And in the cold light of the day,
G A
Things don't always look the same
D Bm
I wondered were you really ill
G A
Or did you always look that way
CHORUS:
Bm A
It was here in the outer limits
G F#
It was oh, such a long, long time ago
Bm A
I was so happy, happy in the outer limits
G F#
I just never wanted to go!
VERSE:
D Bm
What she collected in glass jars,
G A
that was all of her and not mine
D Bm
Because she spent all of her evenings,
G A
and the rest of us were tight
D Bm
Her strange habits, her strange hobbies
G A
made strange noises in the night
D Bm
Ooh, I guess I knew, all along,
G A
something wasn't right
CHORUS:
Bm A
It was here in the outer limits
G F#
It was oh, such a long, long time ago
Bm A
I was so happy, happy in the outer limits
G F# Bm A G F#
I just never wanted to go, oh!
NOTE: ONE GUITER IS PLAYING A SOLO SOMETHING LIKE THIS:
(MY INTERPRETATION - IMPROVISE)
SOLO ON THB HIGH E STRING ONLY
DURING THE ENTIRE BRIDGE:

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