Intro: G C G  (x4)

G                              
People say don't rock the boat,
    C                   G  
Let things go their own way
                Bm             
Ideas that once seemed so right
         C              Am 
Now have gotten hard to say
  D                 G           
I wish that I could talk to you,
         C         020010  Am
And that you could talk to me
             G    200003    
'Cos there's very few of us 
Em      D     
left my friend
         C                 F 
From the days that used to be

G C G  (x2)
                                                            
It seemed like such an easy thing, to follow ones own dream
But possessions and concessions are not often what they seem
They drag you down, they load you down, in disguise of security
But we never used to make those deals
In the days that used to be
                                                     
Talk to me, my long lost friend, tell me how you are
Are you happy with your circumstance, are you driving a new car?
Does it get you where you want to go, with a seven year warranty
Or another hundred thousand miles away
From the days that used to be
