Oh we were born within one hour of each other
Our mothers said we could be sister and brother
Your name is Deborah (Deborah)
It never suited ya
And they said that when we grew up
We'd get married, and never split up
Oh, we never did it, although I often thought of it
Oh Deborah, do you [A7ɾecall?
Your house was [Am7]very small
With wood chip on [C7]the wall
When I came 'round to [C7]call
You didn't notice me at all
And I said, "let's all [Em]meet up in the year 2000
Won't it be [Am]stɾange when we're all [Em]fully grown?
Be there two o'clock by the fountain down the ɾoad"
I never knew that you'd get married
I would be [Am]living down here on [C7]my [A]own
On that damp and [Bm]lonely Thursday years ago
You were the first girl at school to [C7]get breasts
And Martyn said that you [A7were the best
Oh, the boys all [Em]loved you, but I was [Am7]a mess
I had to [C7]watch them [A]tɾying to [C7]get you [A7undressed
We were friends, that was [Am7]as far as it went
I used to [C7]walk you [A7home sometimes but it meant
Oh, it meant nothing to [C7]you
'Cause you [A7were so popular
Deborah, do you [A7ɾecall?
Your house was [Am7]very small
With woodchip on [C7]the wall

I never knew that you'd get married

On that damp and [Bm]lonely Thursday years ago
Do it
Oh yeah

Ah Deborah, do you [A7ɾecall?

You can even bring your baby
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
