Long Before Your Time Chords by Johnny Mcevoy

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I wrote a song _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ called Long Long Before Your Time.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
You ask me why I look so sad [Eb] on this bright [F] summer [Bb] day.
Or _ why the tears are in my eyes [Eb] and I seem [F] so far [Bb] away. _
Well sit yourself _ beside me love [Eb] and put your [F] hand [Bb] in mine. _
And I'll tell you of someone I loved [Eb] long long [F] before [Bb] your time. _
_ _ _ _ I'm sitting here and thinking of [Eb] those [F] days so long [Bb] ago.
_ _ When I was just a child like you [Eb] and a girl [F] I used [Bb] to know.
_ Through fields of green we laughed and played [Eb] and sang [F] our merry [Bb] rhyme.
Oh summer days were warmer then [Eb] long long [F]
before [Bb] your time. _ _ _ _ _
Through childhood years our love did bloom [Eb] till our hearts [F] were just [Bb] as one. _
And we promised each _ [C] eternal love [Eb] in the church below [Bb] the town.
We settled in this little house [Eb] I was [F] proud to [Bb] call our mine. _
Oh we were young and happy then [Eb] long long before [Bb] your time. _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
One lovely year was all we had [Eb] until _ [F] Christmas [Bb] came.
I stole the roses from her trees [Eb] and my [F] tears they [Bb] fell. _ _
For nine long months she carried you [Eb] but in [F] the end [Bb] she died. _
She chose to go so you might live [Eb] long long [F] before [Bb] your time. _
_ _ _ So you ask me why I look so sad [Eb] on this [F] bright [Bb] summer day.
Or why the tears are in my eyes [Eb] when I see [F] you so [Bb] far away.
_ It's just you seem a lot like her [Eb] when your [F] eyes look [Bb] into mine.
And you smile so much like she did [Eb] long long [F]
before [Bb] your time. _ _ _ _ _
And you smile so much like she did [Eb] long long _ _ [F] before _ _ _ _ your _ time. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
