[F#m] [B] [Bm]
[C#] [F#m]
Once upon a time there was a tavern
[F#] Where we used to raise a [Bm] glass or two
Remember how we let [F#m] away the hours
[G#] Think of all the great [C#] things we would do
Those were [F#m] the days my friend
[D] We [Bm] thought they'd never end
[E] We'd sing and dance forever [A] and a [F#] day
We'd live [Bm] the life we'd choose
We'd [F#m] fight and never lose
[C#] We were young and sure [F#m] to have our way
[Bm]
[C#] [F#m]
Then the busy years went rushing by us
[F#] We lost our starry [Bm] notions on the way
If by chance I'd see [F#m] you in the tavern
[G#] We'd smile at one another [C#] and we'd say
Those were [F#m] the days my friend
[C#m] We [Bm] thought they'd never end
[E] We'd sing and dance forever and [A] a day
[Bm] We'd live the life we'd choose
[F#m] We'd fight and never lose
[C#] Those were the days, yes [F#m] those were the days
Na na na [Bm] na na na na na [C#] na na na na
[F#m]
Just tonight I stood before the tavern
[F#] Nothing seemed the way it [Bm] used to be
In the glass I saw a [F#m] strange reflection
[G#] Was that lonely woman [C#] really me?
Those were [F#m] the days my [D] friend
[B] We thought they'd never [F#] end
[E] We'd sing and dance [F#] forever [A] and a day
We'd [Bm] live the life we'd choose
We'd [F#m] fight and never lose
[A] Those [C#] were the days, [G#] yes [F#m] those were the days
Na na na [Bm]
na na na [E] na na na na [A] na
[Bm] Na na na na na na na [F#m] na na na
[C#] [F#m]
[F#] [Gm]
Through the door there came familiar laughter
[G] I saw your face [D] and heard you [Cm] call my name
Oh my friend [G] but no wiser
[Gm] [A] For in our hearts the [D] dreams are still the same
Those were the [Gm] days my friend
We thought [Cm] they'd never end
We'd sing [F] and dance forever and [A#] a day
We'd live [Cm] the life we'd choose
[Gm] We'd fight and never
[D] lose
Oh yes those were the days
