A                        D
We lived in a time and a world of our own
A	                      F#m
Making up the rules as we went along 
A                            D
Just one coat between us and we never felt cold
A                       E
We were never gonna get old

A                                      D
Playin' cards 'till the sun came up and rollin' dice
A	                                 F#m
Down to the club and listen to the blues all night
A                            D
Girls down on the corner got lonely now and then
A                          E
We'd never be that free again

A                              D
It's been a long time since we laughed together
A                              F#m
It's been a long time since we cried
A                        D
Raise your glass for the comrades we've lost
A                     E           A
My friend it's been a long, long time

A                      D
Workin' just enough to pay the rent 
A                    F#m
Money got made, baby, money got spent 
A                            D
Sleeping when we had nothin' left to do
A                                  E
Under the boardwalk and up on the roof

A                        D
We never quite fit baby, we never played the game 
A                        F#m
Came out explodin' like a runaway train
A                          D
Up all night talkin' 'bout dreams of better days
A                                      E
Ain't it funny how some things don't change

A                              D
It's been a long time since we laughed together
A                              F#m
It's been a long time since we cried
A                        D
Raise your glass for the comrades we've lost
A                     E           A
My friend it's been a long, long time

(Guitar Solo) A       D        A        F#m       A        D       A       E       A (x2)

A                        D
We lived in a time and a world of our own
A                        F#m
Making up the rules as we went along 
A                            D
Just one coat between us and we never felt cold
A                        E
We were never gonna get old

A                              D
It's been a long time since we laughed together
A                              F#m
It's been a long time since we cried
A                        D
Raise your glass for the comrades we've lost
A                     E           A
My friend it's been a long, long time
