              F
Well we were born within an hour of each other

Our mothers said we could be sister and brother
                Bb
Your name is Deborah. Deborah - it never suited you

              F
Oh and they said that when we grew up

We4d get married and never split up
          Bb
We never did it, although I often I thought of it

                      Cm   [Csus2]
Oh Deborah, do you recall?
                      Cm                          Cm
Your house was very small with wood-chips on the wall
                       Cm                           F
When I came around to call you didn4t notice me at all

             Bb
And I said "Let4s all meet up in the year 2000
 Dm                                         Gm
Won4t it be strange when we4re all fully grown?
                             Cm               Fsus4  F
Be there two o4clock by the fountain down the ro-----ad"

Bb
I never knew that you4d get married
Dm                                 Gm
I would be living down here on my own
                         Cm            F
On that damp and loney Thursday years ago

               F
You were the first girl in school to get breasts

Martyn said that you were the best
              Bb
The boys all loved you but I was a mess

I had to watch them try to get you undressed

          F
We were friends that was as far as it went

I used to walk you home sometimes but it meant
                      Bb
Oh, it meant nothing to you - cos you were oh so popular
                    Cm
