Subject: CRD/LYR/TAB: A long time ago - Jim Croce
A few days ago someone asked about Photographs and Memories by
John Denver, but actually he or she was reffering to A long time ago
by Jim Croce. So here it is. I TABbed the intro only (due to
lazyness...), which is basically the same as the verse.
A long time ago - Jim Croce
Intro: G - D - Em - C - G/B - Am - C - G
G D Em
Seems like such a long time ago
C G/B Am C G
I was walking on lonely road
G D Em
Getting tired of dreamin` alone
C G/B Am C G
Like all the lonely people I had known
Seems like such a long time ago
There was no-one who would share my song
I was just a boy far from home
And I became a man when you came along
C C/B Am Am/G Em
We spent the whole night talking
D C G D G
You said you`d like to see the sun rise
C C/B Am Am/G Em
But in the gold of morning
D C G D G
There was nothing that I had not seen in your eyes
Em D
Hmmm
C G/B
I was so afraid to touch you
A G
Thought you were too young to know
C C/B Am Em D
So I just watched you sleeping
C G/B
Then you woke and said to me
Am G
The night is cold it frightens me
C C/B Am Em D
I could sleep so easy next to you
Wasn`t very long ago
You said that you would like to share my road
Then you started singing my song
You said so many nights are waiting
Let`s not spent a moment waisting time
`Cause we have very far to go
I will go if you will take me
I have never had a lover
I am young but I am so alone
We spent the whole night talking
(...)
But in the gold of morning
(...)
Em D D7 G
Hmmm, mmm mmm
