[C#]Avalon, how did these things happen?
Avalon, tell me all you know
The perfect [G#]crime, we [C#]laughed about it,
laughed the whole night [G#]through
When [C#]we were caught, it was because of [G#]you
[C#]Talkin bout all that we once knew

[C#]Avalon, the clock is falling back now
Avalon, we'd be if we could
You used to [G#]say "the [C#]water's fine, nevermind the [G#]view"
I [C#]didn't mind as long as I have [G#]you
[C#]Talkin bout all that we've been through
[F#]Some[G#]days, [F#]some[G#]days we might be [F]tired of [D#]being [C#]tired
[F#]We c[G#]laim, [F#]we c[G#]laim to be [F]one of [D#]one of [C#]one

We didn't [G#]know the [C#]things we said
Would turn out [G#]untrue
The [C#]day would come when I'd be somewhere [G#]new and what about [C#]you
Times have changed for me and times have changed for [F]you, for [D#]you[C#]
Talkin bout all that we once knew[C#7]
