Intro - C C F F G G F F x4

C C F F G G F F
Oh well in five years time we could be walking round a zoo
C C F F G G F F
With the sun shining down over me and you
C C F F G G F F
And there?ll be love in the bodies of the elephants too
C C F F G G F F
And I?ll put my hands over your eyes, but you?ll peep through

C C F F G G F F
And there?ll be sun sun sun all over our bodies
C C F F G G F F
And sun sun sun all down our necks
C C F F G G F F
And sun sun sun all over our faces
C C F F G G F F
And sun sun sun so what the heck

C C F F G G F F
Cos I?ll be laughing at all your silly little joke
C C F F G G F F
And we?ll be laughing about how we used to smoke
C C F F G G F F
All those stupid little cigarettes and drink stupid wine
C C F F G G F F
Cos it?s what we needed to have a good time

C C F F G G F F
And it was fun fun fun when we were drinking
C C F F G G F F
It was fun fun fun when we were drunk
C C F F G G F F
And it was fun fun fun when we were laughing
C C F F G G F F
It was fun fun fun oh it was fun

C C F F G G F F x2

C C F F G G F F
Oh well I look at you and say it?s the happiest that I?ve ever been
C C F F G G F F
And I?ll say I no longer feel I have to be James Dean
C C F F G G F F
And she?ll say "Yeah well I feel all pretty happy too
C C F F G G F F
And I?m always pretty happy when I?m just kicking back with you"

C C F F G G F F
And it?ll be love love love all through our bodies
C C F F G G F F
And love love love all through our minds
C C F F G G F F
And it be love love love all over her face
C C F F G G F F
And love love love all over mine

C C F F G G F F
Although maybe all these moments are just in my head
C C F F G G F F
I?ll be thinking ?bout them as I?m laying in bed
C C F F G G F F
And all that I believe they might never really come true
C C F F G G F F
But in my mind I?m havin? a pretty good time with you

C C F F G G F F
Five years time I might not know you
C C F F G G F F
Five years time we might not speak at all
C C F F G G F F
In five years time we might not get along
C C F F G G F F
In five years time you might just prove me wrong

C C F F G G F F x2

C C F F G G F F
There?ll be love love love wherever you go x4

Chords are right but in the wrong place over the lyrics which I wouldn't let sway my vote if we didn't already have so many tabs for this.

About this song: 5 Years Time

According to the 5 Years Time Songfacts,this single was Noah and the Whale's commercial breakthrough. Charlie Fink told the Sunday Times: "If someone had told me the potential was there for such things to happen with the song, I would have laughed. It seems completely absurd and terrifying. But I still love it, it still means what it meant to me when I wrote it." He then acknowledged that this song has, "the ability to produce joy in people who hear it."
