I met a friend [Ab] in a bar [Eb] last night, [Bbm] a girl from a [Ab] faraway past
[Gb] counted and worked out that it'd [Bbm] been more than seven years [Ab] since we saw each other [Bbm] last
so much older, [Ab] I have to say
[Bbm] She used to dress so lively [Ab] and [Eb] smart
[Bbm] and her hair was a mess
was tired [Bbm] and hard
I asked her what she had [Ab] been up to [Eb] since then
a [Ab] while, [Gb] she drew a nervous breath and [Bbm] sighed
