Whenever I get[Em] to feel this way,[B]
[D] Hard to find new[A] words to say,
[C] I think about the [G]bad old days
[F#] We used to [B]know.
[Em] Nights of winter [B]turn me cold --
[D] Fears of dying, [A]getting old.
[C] We ran the race the [G]race was won
[F#] By running [B]slowly.
[Em] Could be soon well [B]cease to sound,
[D] Slowly upstairs, [A]faster down.
[C] Then to revisit [G]stony grounds,
[F#] We used to [B]know.
[Em] Remembering mornin[B]gs, shillings spent,
[D] Made no sense to [A]leave the bed.
[C] The bad old days t[G]hey came and went
[F#] Giving way to [B]fruitful years.
(Instrumental solo)
[Em] Saving up the [B]birds in hand
[D] While in the bus[A]h the others land.
[C] Take what we can b[G]efore the man
[F#] Says its time to[B] go.
[Em] Each to his own wa[B]y I'll go mine.
[D] Best of luck in [A]what you find.
[C] But for your own sake remem[G]ber times
[F#] We used to [B]know.
