[Fm] Once upon a time there was a tavern
[F] Where we used to raise a [Bbm] glass or two
Remember how we laughed away [Fm] the hours
Think [G] of all the great things we [Am] would do
[C]
Those were [Fm] the days, my friend
We thought [Bbm] they'd never end
We'd sing [Eb] and dance forever [Ab] and a day
We [Bbm] loved the life we'd choose
We'd [Fm] fight and never lose
For [C] we were young and sure to [Fm] have our way
Da [Fm] da da da da da da [F] da da [Bbm] da da da da da [F] da [C] da da da da [Fm] da da
Just tonight I stood before the tavern
[F] Nothing seemed the way it used [Bbm] to be
[Bbm] In the glass I saw [Fm] strange reflections
[G] Was that lonely [Bm] woman really [C] me?
Those were the [Fm] days, my friend
We thought [Bbm] they'd never end
We'd [Eb] sing and dance forever [Ab] and a day
We [Bbm] loved the life we'd choose
We'd [Fm] fight and never lose
Those [C] were the days, oh yes those were the [Fm] days

Through the door there came familiar laughter
I [F] saw your face and heard you call my [Bbm]
name.
Oh my friend we wrote them, [Fm] but no wiser,
[G] For in our hearts the [B] dreams [C] are still the same.
Those were [Fm] the days my friend, we thought [Bbm] they'd never end,
We'd sing [Eb] and dance forever [Ab] and a day.
