In [Em] the sunshine [E] of a city little town, down [A] around the sandy [E] ground.
And the coast is rising for another day.
[A] Ride my back up the [E] mountain, [C#m] to save all the people [B] who strayed.
[A] But the crowd is [C] where they're at.
[E] Long ago now, a time
[A] ago.

[A] [E] Well the people in the city, so very lonesome.
They [A] are the gods of love [E] town.
When the gods of love are flying, they ain't lying.
The [A] sun goes on the [E] ground.
[C#m] They say that the people [B] are sane.
[A] We're seeing this footage [C]
again.

Long ago now, a time [A] ago.

Can't you see this is news that he got us,

Champagne is running through the center of my soul.

You can even hear the music at night.

Long ago now, a time ago.
