[D] [Bm] [G]
[A] I [D] [Bm] [G]
[D] went to a [G] garden party to [D] reminisce with my [G] old friends, [D] a chance [C#m] to share [Bm] old [D] memories
[G] and [A] play a song [D]
again.
When I got to the [G] garden party, [D] they all knew [G] my name, [C#] but no one [Bm] recognized [D] me.
[G] It [A] didn't look [D] the same, but [G] it's [A] all right now.
[Bm] [G] I learned [A] my lesson [D]

yourself.

And over in [G] the corner, much to my surprise,
[D] Mr.
[A] Hughes [Bm] hid in Dylan's shoes, [G] [A] wearing his [D]
disguise.

I played them all [G] the old songs, [D] thought that's why [G] they came.
[D] No [C#m] one heard [Bm] the music, [G] we [A] didn't look [D] the same.
I said hello [G] to Mary Lou, [D] she belongs [G] to me.
[D] And I sang a song about a honky tonk, [G] [A] it was time [D] to leave.
But [G] it's [A] all [D] right now.

Goode.
[D] Playing guitar [Bm] like a ring [D] in a bell, [G] and [A] looking like [D] he should.
You got to play at [G] garden parties, [D] I wish you a lot [G] of luck.
