EmOnce upon a Em6time, there was a Em7tavern Em6
EWhere we used to raise a glass orAm two Am6
AmRemember how we l(aug)hed away thEme hoursEm6,
F#7Think of all the great things we wouldB7 do
[Refrain :]
Those were the Emdays, my friend
We thought they'd nAmever end
We'd sing and dDance foreD7ver and a Gday
We'd live the lAmife we'd choose
We'd fight and nEmever lose
For we were yB7oung and sure to have our Emway
La la la la la la la la
AmLa la la la la la
La la lB7a la la la la la la Emla
TheEmn, the busy Em6years went rushing bEm7y us Em6
EWe lost our starry notions on the wAmay Am6
AmIf, by chance, I'd see you in the tEmavern,Em6
We'd F#7smile at one another and we'dB7 say
[Refrain]
JuEmst tonight,Em6 I stood before the Em7tavern Em6
ENothing seemed the way it used toAm be Am6
AmIn the glass, I saw a strange refleEmction Em6
F#7Was that lonely woman reallyB7 me ?
[Refrain]
ThrougEmh the door,Em6 there came familiar lEm7(aug)hterEm6
EI saw your face and heard you call my nAmame Am6
AmOh, my friend, we're older but no wEmiser Em6
F#7For in our hearts, the dreams are still the B7same
