Dmaj7 Em A7
(Intro)
Dmaj7 Em
I remember so long ago wondering
A7 Dmaj7 Em A7
Could we stay this way forever
Dmaj7 Em
On this carousel turning and laughing
A7 Dmaj7 Em A7
We just wanted to be together
Em A7
And so we did it
Em A7
We left on our own merry way
Em A7 D
Into this world alone
Dmaj7 Em
In the sand at the sea we lay gazing
A7 Dmaj7 Em A7
At the stars up above in the heavens
Dmaj7 Em
There was nothing to keep us from playing
A7 Dmaj7 Em A7
We just wanted to be together
Em A7
Why did we do it
Em A7
We left on our own merry way
Em A7 D
Into this world alone
Bm
Little did we know
F#m
Where we were going then
Bm
And when things got cold
F#m A G F#m Em
Trying not to pretend
Dmaj7 Em A7 Dmaj7 Em A7
Ooo...
Em A7
And still we did it
Em A7
We left on our own merry way
Em A7 D
Into this world alone
Bm
How were we to know
F#m
Things were so simple then
Bm
Somehow we lost hope
F#m A G F#m Em
Falling to earth again
Dmaj7 Em
Then came that cold winter's day
A7 Dmaj7 Em A7
When we ended it forever
Dmaj7 Em
After everything we used to say
A7 Dmaj7 Em A7
There was nothing to keep us together
Em A7
And so we did it
Em A7
Each left on our own merry way
Em A7 D
Back to this world alone
