Those were the days - Mary Hopkin chords
Key:
Em
Singer/Band:
Mary Hopkin
Tone [Em] Capo on 2nd fret
1. [Em]Once upon a time, there was a tavern
[E7]Where we used to raise a glass or [Am]two
Remember how we laughed away the [Em]hours
[F#7]Think of all the great things we would [B7]do?
Chorus: Those were the [Em]days, my friend, we thought they'd [Am]never end
We'd sing and [D7]dance forever and a [G]day
We'd live the [Am]life we'd choose, we'd fight and [Em]never lose
For we were [B7]young and sure to have our [Em]way
(Those were the days, oh yes those were the days.)
[B7]Lá lá la [Em]la la la, lá lá la [Am]la la la
Là la la [B7]la, la lá la la là [Em]la
2. [Em]Then, the busy years went rushing by us
[E7]We lost our starry notions on the [Am]way
If, by chance, I'd see you in the [Em]tavern
We'd [F#7]smile at one another and we'd [B7]say
3. [Em]Just tonight, I stood before the tavern
[E7]Nothing seemed the way it used to [Am]be
In the glass, I saw a strange re- [Em]flection
[F#7]Was that lonely woman really [B7]me?
4. [Em]Through the door, there came familiar laughter
[E7]I saw your face and heard you call my [Am]name
Oh my friend, we're older but no [Em]wiser
[F#7]For in our hearts, the dreams are still the [B7]same
