Old friends old friends sat on their park bench
RE SIm MIm7 LA
like bookends a newspaper blown through the grass
SIm RE7+ SOL RE6 SOL7+ RE7+
falls on the round toes of the high shoes of the old friends
SOL7+ RE7+ MIm7 LA7
Old friends winter companions
SOL7+ FA#m7 MIm7 LA7 RE MIm7 SIm
the old men lost in their overcoats waiting for the sun
MIm7 LA7 FA#m7 SIm
The sounds of the city shifting through trees
LA SOL RE6
settle like dust on the shoulders of the old friends
MIm7 LA7 RE7+ SOL SOLm RE
Can you imagine us years from today sharing a park bench quietly
MIm7 LA7 SIm
How terribly strange to be seventy
SOL7+ RE7+ MIm7 LA7 SOL7+ FA#m7
old friends memory brushes the same years
MIm7 LA7 RE6 SIm
silently sharing the same fears
MIm7 RE
Time it was and what a time it was, it was
MIm7 RE
a time of inocence, a time of confidences.
MIm7 RE
Long ago it must be I have a photograp
MIm7 RE MIm7 RE MIm7 RE
preserve your memories; they’re all that’s left you
