[C#m] [F#m] [F#] [Em] [Bm]
[C#] [F#m]
Once upon a time there was a tavern
[F#] Where [G#] we used to [A#] raise a [Bm] glass or two
Remember how we laughed [F#m] away the hours
[G#] Think of all the great [C#] things we would do
Those were [F#m] the days my friend
[D] We [Bm] thought they'd never end
We'd [E] sing and dance [D] forever and a [A] day
[Am] We'd [Bm] live the life we'd choose
We'd fight [F#m] and never lose
Oh we [C#] were [D] young and [G#m] sure [F#m] to have our way
[Bm]
[C#] [F#m]
When the busy years went rushing by us
[F#] We lost our [G#m] starry [F#] notions [Bm] on the way
If by chance I'd see [F#m] you in the tavern
We'd [G#] smile at one another [C#] and we'd say
Those were [F#m] the days my friend
[D] We thought [Bm] they'd never end
[E] We'd sing and dance [A] forever and a day
[Bm] We'd live the life we'd choose
[F#m] We'd fight and never lose
[C#] Those were the days, oh [B] yes [F#m] those were the days
Da [F] da [F#m] da da da da [F#] da
Da [Bm] da da da da da da
Da [C#] da da da da da da [F#m] da da da da da
Just tonight I stood before the tavern, [F#] nothing seemed the way it [Bm] used to be.
In the glass I saw a [F#m] strange reflection, [G#] was that [C] lonely woman [C#] really me?
Those [F#m] were the days, my friend, we [Bm] thought they'd [F#m] never [G#m] end.
We'd sing and dance [E] [B] forever [A] and a day.
We'd [Bm] love the life we'd choose, we'd [F#] fight and never [A] lose.
Those [C#] were the days, oh yes, those [F#m] were the days.
