Intro: Dm Am Dm Am
Dm Am
1997 Livid Festival
Dm Am C
Me and Sarah my best friend
Dm C
Stripy tights and fairy wings
Gm
As safe as safe can be
Bb Dm
We drank the gin we'd snuck in
Am Dm
Danced to Ben Folds Five
Am C
I turned around to Sarah
Dm C
Couldn't see her anywhere
Gm Bb Bb/C
As safe as safe can be
Dm Am Gm Bb
Oh Sarah, I didn't mean to let you down
C Dm Am
But you left me on my own, Sarah
Gm Bb
Why didn't you scream?
C Dm
I went to all the stages
Am Dm
And to the St John's stand
Am C
The man said 'you just missed her
Dm C
Stay - maybe she'll come back again'
Gm Bb
I sat and watched the crowds
Dm
My father came at midnight
Am Dm
We searched til half-past four
Am C
I was half hysterical
Dm C
My father wasn't sure
Gm Bb
He called for the police
Dm Am Gm Bb
Oh Sarah, I didn't mean to let you down
C Dm Am
But you left me on my own, Sarah
Gm Bb C Dm
Why didn't you scream? Why didn’t you shout?
Am Gm Bb
Sarah, I hated that I let you down
C Dm Am
But you left me on my own, Sarah
Gm Bb C Dm
Why didn’t you scream? Why didn’t you shout?
Dm
The next day the sergeant
Am Dm
Found her blue dress in the creek
Am C
Her parents were so angry
Dm C
They put the blame on me
Gm
Bb Dm
Then a fortnight later
Am Dm
Sarah knocked upon their door
Am C Dm
Her mother asked her 'Where've you been?'
C
And she said
G F Dm Am Dm Am Dm
'I don't know, I don't know, I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I can't remember
Am
Anything at all.'
Dm Am Gm Bb
Oh Sarah, I didn't mean to let you down
C Dm Am
But you left me on my own, Sarah
Gm Bb C Dm
Why didn't you scream? Why didn’t you shout?
Am Gm Bb
Sarah, I hated that I let you down
C Dm Am
But you left me on my own, Sarah
Gm Bb C Dm
Why didn’t you scream? Why didn’t you shout?
