[C] [D] He [A] passed upon the stair And spoke of was and [D] [A] when
[D] Although [A] I wasn't there He said I was [F] his friend
Which came as some [C]
surprise I spoke in through [A] his eyes
I thought you [F] [Dm] died alone A long [F] time [E] [Gm]
ago
[C] You know I [F] love not me, not him [C#] I never loved [F] him so
[C] Your face, your [F] face, your face, your face [C#] Is the man who knows [A] all the world
I [D] laughed and shook his [A] hand Made my way [D] back home
[A]
[Dm] I roamed [A] a distant land For years and years [F] I roamed
I [C] gazed a ghastly stare But all the [A] millions here
We must have [Dm] died alone A long, [F] long time [G] [A#] ago
