red brick paradise - original song | Orla Gartland

old camera. old bedroom. new song!
hey all. here's a song I wrote about my younger, naive years. (I don't want to adult, you see). hope you like! :)
lyrics + chords:
the verses mainly revolve around Bb (B flat !) played as a bar'd E chord on the 6th fret. It flicks every so often to the Aminor, too!
lyrics:
Bb
Find your diaries
Pull apart the plastic, let’s get all nostalgic
Dm - C
We should think about
Bb
When we were 15, wondering what it all means
Dm - Gm - Am
And we still don’t know
Bb
Garden shed talk
Trying to shake the week off, smoking on a see-saw
Dm - C
Never think about
Bb
Anything at all outside of our little world
Dm - Gm - Am
And all the 10 guys, go out with the 10 girls
Bb - C
I wanna know why
B - C
We let the whole thing pass us by
F
I don’t want to know what fear feels like
F Bb
No I just wanna live forever
C F
In this red brick paradise
F
I don’t ever wanna know what real life feels like
Bb
No I just wanna live forever
C# - C - F
In this red brick paradise
Verse 2 (chords mostly same to verse 1, will write in when they change)
Every friday, someone’s in a right state
Gotta learn the hard way
Only think about pulling all-nighters,
Can I borrow your lighter
4 cans for a fiver
Shit, I miss it
Bb
No one wants to stay here
Am - Bb
But no ones want to leave
Bb
I think we’ll be in trouble if we burst our lil bubble
Gm - Am - B - C
I don’t know what to believe
(chorus)
F - Eb
(fingerpick-y part played up the fret.. for F thumb on low E string fret 13, fingers picking between fret 14 and 12 on the D string. For Eb thumb on low E string fret 11, fingers picking between fret 12 and 10 on the E string).
One night, when it got dark
I went back to our park
and oh dear
It was awkward, and it felt weird
So I got up, and walked round
To your house & the church grounds
There was no one, to call for
So I just knocked on my own door
(chorus)
One night, when it got dark
I went back to our park
and it felt wrong.
That life went on, when we were gone
