The Hungry Years Chords by Rita Coolidge

[G#] _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Babe, we made it to [Em] the top [G] We went so high we [B] couldn't stop
We climbed [Em] the ladder leading [B] us nowhere Two [E] of us together _ [C#] building castles [B] in the air
_ [Em] We _ [A] _ _ [D]
spun so fast we couldn't [Gm] tell [A#] The gold ring from [E] the [D] carousel
How [Gm] could we know the [D] ride would turn out [F#] bad?
[Bm] Everything we wanted [D] was _ [E] everything [A] we had
_ _ I [Am] miss [G] the hungry years [Gm] Once upon a time
_ [D]
Lovely long ago [E] We didn't have a dime
[Em] Those days I've been [F#m] [Gm] used _ [Em] _ [D] Lost along the way
_ How [D] could [G] I be so glad [Gm] Not to see the door
[D]
Closing all the words [Bm] That I'd not [C#m] hungered [E] for
[Em] Looking through my [F#m] [G] tears I _ [A] [Gm] miss [D] the hungry _ years
[C#m] _ _ [F#] _ _
[B] We shared our daydreams one by [Em] one Making plans [B] was so much fun
We set [Em] our goals and reached [B] the highest star
[E] Things that we were after [Em] Were much better _ [B]
from afar
_ [Em] _ _ [A] _ _ [D]
I hear we stand just me [Gm] and you With everything and [D] nothing to
It [Gm] wasn't worth the [D] price we had to [F#] pay [Bm] Honey, take me home
Let's go [E] back [Em] to yesterday _ [A] _ _ [D] I miss [G] the hungry years
[Gm] Once upon a time _ [D]
Lovely long ago
[E] We didn't have a [C#m] dime [Em] Those days I've been [F#m] [Gm] used
_ _ [G] Lost [D] along the way
_ How could [G] I be so glad [Gm] Not to see the door
[D]
Closing all the words That [Bm] I'd not hungered [E] for
[Em] Looking through my [F#m] [G] tears _ [Gm] I miss [D] the hungry years
[Gm] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
