1.    We were younger then, we were half the age,

                                                          D                       E

    we could see it all through a careless sense, my friend.

A

    Was it all an act ? Was it just pretend ? Does it hurt to see

                               D                            E

    how our smiles have changed, my friend ?

        D

    I took it all for granted, I lived it like a dream,

               A

    I was always the first person you called when you needed me.

      D

    Everything is changing, and this is how it's got to be,

             A

    but how can something so beautiful leave me so desperately ?
