Em C G twice
On a [Em]black and white [C]TV back in [G]grammar school
I was [Em]watching Neil [C]Armstrong walking [G]on the moon
That [C]same day I pre[D]tended I was an [Em]astronaut
on the playground [C]monkey bars I flew a[D]bove the stars
I was[Em] in a Dallas dis[C]co the nigh[G]t John Lennon died
The D[Em]J played Imagine[C] and everyb[G]ody cried
I rem[C]ember a thousa[D]nd lighters held[Em] up in our hands
All we were saying[C] was let?s give peac[D]e a chance
Chorus:
[G]Where was [C]I when you [Am]stopped lovin? [D]me
[G]When did [C]I become [Am]histor[D]y
There?s [G]not many [C]things that escape my [Am]memor[D]y
Tell me [C]where was [G]I when you [D]stopped loving [G]me
Every[Em] 20,000 years th[C]at comet li[G]ghts up the night
On a [Em]blanket we watch[C]ed it sail [G]across the sky
A mom[C]ent like that [D]comes just once [Em]in life
It felt like o[C]ur first time at 11:[D]35
Chorus
Bridge:
I [D]remember when I met you
The [G]taste of our first kiss
I rem[Am]ember your good[C/B]bye
[C]Could you tell me [D]this
