Am
Once upon a time there was a tavern,
Dm
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Am
Remember, how we laughed away the hours
B E
And think of all the great things we would do

Chorus:
Am
Those were the days my friend
Dm
We thought they'd never end
E
We'd sing and dance
Am
forever and a day
Am
We'd live the life we choose
Dm
We'd fight & never lose
E
for we were young
Am
and sure to have our way
Am
La la la , la la la
Dm
La la la , la la la
* E
La la la la
Am
La la la la
or
those were the days
Oh yes, those were the days
----
Then the busy years went rushing by us
We lost our starry notions on the way
If by chance I'd see you in a tavern
We'd smile at one another
and we'd say
Chorus:
---Just tonight I stood before the tavern
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
In the glass I saw strange reflections
was that lonely woman really she
Chorus:
---
--
Through the door there came
familiar laughter
I saw your face and
heard you call my name
Oh, my friend we're
older , but no wiser
for in our hearts
the dreams are still the same.
Chorus:
La la la la la la
la la la la la la
la la la la la la---//
