The trouble you had, it wasn't so bad 
D       D/C# Bm                          C   A7 
It's only life and what you're livin' for 
D                 G     D              G 
Sit down right here, I'll send away your tears 
D            D/C# Bm                          C      A7 
Well we don't have to talk about it much more 
G                   A9 
Good things turn bad but it's over now

So don't look sad 'cause you're older now

You're back again, you still have all your friends 
D            D/C# Bm                           C      A7 
And they used to ask me why'd you go away Deirdre 
D              G    D              G 
What could I say, that you ran away 
D                  D/C# Bm                           C      A7 
Don't you think it's time that you stayed right near me

These nights, pretty nights, that were meant to be 
F#m           B7 
With you and me, it's the way that we

Always had our love, Deirdre

Dear dear dear Deirdre

D    D/C# Bm                        C    A7 
Baby 1 2 3 and you're back with me 
D             G     D                 G 
Tomorrow at ten, I'll wake you and then 
D           D/C# Bm                                   C       A7 
We'll take a bath and then I'll laugh again with Deirdre 
G              A9 
You may not live with me every day 
F#m          B7 
All that I care is that we find a way
