Chords for Val Doonican with Max Bygraves

Now listen ladies and gentlemen, Max and I, this is quite true now, we discovered something this week didn't we?
We both started in the business, we both became professionals in _ 1946.
Exactly the same year we turned professional in the business, this is true now.
And you're probably sitting there and sitting at home thinking to yourself,
now what on earth were two lads aged seven and ten doing _ _ _ in 1946, trying to get into show business, really isn't it?
And the hard part to believe is I was the seven year old.
_ _ _ But listen Max, do you know one of the great advantages you had over me in those early days
when you were sitting out on the road is, he was a great dancer.
He really, I couldn't dance really, but he was always a good dancer and he doesn't know anything about this.
But I have found a little bit of film of you dancing, now you stand there now and blush.
Can we have a look at Max dancing? _
More with me!

_ _ That's a cut, now be honest, have you ever seen that before?
I honestly don't remember that, I can't even remember who the other two, I thought it was Wilson Keppel and Betty.
What are you going to tell all your friends the night that comes on television?
You're going to tell your family all about it.
Listen, [F] Max, looking back to the early days in the business, I'll ask you a straightforward question.
You know what everybody calls the good old days?
I mean do you think they were good old days really or were they bad old days?
I mean how do you remember?
I mean the good old days, you know, I mean beer was about four pints of pint
and somebody like my piano player could go out and get drunk on 12 quid. _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _
Don't you remember _ when they had an aftershave lotion in those days called Young Spice?
[C#] _ _ _ [G#m] Let's rev it!
[F#] _ _ _ [G] _ _
[C#] Last time was a great [G#] hit. _
_ _ _ _ _ _
It seems the snows are a falling a bit [G#] deeper these days
and [D#m] they're building [G#] the stairs [C#] a bit _ steeper these days
and [G#] the town's really changing [F#] in so many _ ways
[C#] _ _ _
[G#] _ _ [C#] _ the _ _ _ young folks are growing _ [G#] _ exceptionally tall
_ [D#m] and the newspaper [G#] _
print is [C#] becoming so small
and the folks speak [D#] so softly [F#] you can't hear [D#m] at all
_ [C#] _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ [C#] _ _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ [C#] _ _ _
[D#] the _ [F#] jokes don't seem as witty [G#m] as the old jokes [C#] once were
[G#m] and the girls aren't [C#] as pretty [F#] as I remember [C#] her
and [G#m] today in [D#m] the park a [B] young man called [G#m] me sir
_ [F#] _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ It [B] seems the policemen [F#m] are getting much younger.
[B] So they say.
[F#m] It seems that they're both, [B] all of them are in their [F#m] teens
_ [B] and my [D#m] daughter's young daughter got married [C#] last week
with a wedding dress tucked in her jeans. _ _
When you switch on the telly the language is foul.
There's nothing but sex and violence and crime.
So we go down the pub and even the landlord shouts out and tells us that it's
Time, _ _ time, time _ _
[E] _ _ [D] I'm not quite as anxious [E] for fame or [A] success
[Em] and my eye [A] finds the girl with the [D] quiet pretty dress
and I cling a [B] bit longer [G] to each warm [Em] caress
_ [D] Time, _
_ [A] time, [D] time _
[C#] _ So [E] I breathe a bit heavy when [B] I climb up the hill
Well what of it?
My life now [E] is much more fulfilled
But [Bm] they're tearing [G#] down new things [A] we once saw them [D] build
[E] Time, _
[B] _ time, [E] [G#m] time
One more [G#] time
_ [E] _ _ _
Time, _ _ [B] _ _
time, _ [E] time _
