Those Were the Days my Friend [Dm]Mary Hopkins

Verse 1
Dm Once upon a time there was a tavern
D7 Where we used to raise a glass or Gm two
Gm Remember how we laughed away the Dm hours
And E7 dreamed of all the great things we would A7* do

Chorus 1
Those were the Dm days my friend we thought they'd Gm never end
We'd sing and C dance forC7ever and a F day
We'd live the Gm life we choose we'd fight and Dm never lose
For we were A7 young and sure to have our Dm way

A7 La la la Dm la la la la la la Gm la la la La la la A7 la, la la la la la Dm la

Verse 2
Dm Then the busy years went rushing by us
We D lost our starry notions on the Gm way
Gm If by chance I'd see you in the Dm tavern
We'd E7 smile at one another and we'd A7* say

Chorus 1

Verse 3
Dm Just tonight I stood before the tavern
D7 Nothing seemed the way it used to Gm be
Gm In the glass I saw a strange reDmflection
E7 Was that lonely woman really A7* me

Chorus 2
Those were the Dm days my friend we thought they'd Gm never end
We'd sing and C dance forC7ever and a F day
We'd live the Gm life we choose we'd fight and Dm never lose
For we were A7 young and sure to have our Dm way

A7 La la la Dm La la la la la la Gm la la la La la la C la, la C7 la la la la F la
La la la Gm la la la, la la la Dm la la la La la la A7 la, la la la la la Dm la

Verse 4
Dm Through the door there came familiar laughter
I D7 saw your face and heard you call my Gm name
Gm Oh my friend we're older but no Dm wiser
For E7 in our hearts the dreams are still the A7* same

Chorus 2
Those were the Dm days my friend we thought they'd Gm never end
We'd sing and C dance forC7ever and a F day
We'd live the Gm life we choose we'd fight and Dm never lose
For we were A7 young and sure to have our Dm way
