Play Intro 6x

                     G#
We passed upon the stairs,
                  C#m
Spoken walls and wells,
                   G#
Although I was a friend
                 E
Sat on walls astrand,
                      B
Which came as so surprised,
                  G#                         C#m
I spoke into his eyes —  I thought you died alone
                     B
A long long time ago

 B         E
Oh no, not me,
    C               B
We never lost control,
    B         E
The face, to face,
          C                  G#
With the man who sold the world.

                         G#
I laughed and shook his hand,
                   C#m
Made my way back home,
                         G#
I searched from farther land,
                       E
Years and years I roamed,
                       B
I gazed all gazers there,
                     G#                        C#m
We walked a million hills - I must have died alone,
                    B
A long long time ago.

    B           E
Who knows, not me,
   C               B
I never lost control,
     B        E
Your face, to face,
          C                G#
With the man who sold the world.
