	  		Intro: Gm Cm D7 Gm   
  
                                Cm   D7                                        Gm  
Lonely table just for one,       In a bright and crowded room   
                                    Cm    D7                                          Gm 
While the music has begun,       I drink to memories in the gloom   
                                            Cm      D7                                   G  
Though the music's still the same,       It has a bittersweet refrain   
                                                         D7  
So play the song the way it used to be   
                                                         G  
Before she left and changed it all to sadness   
       C                                              G  
And maybe, if she's passing by the window   
              Em     D                         D7   G  
She will hear a love song, and a melody   
       C                                           G  
And even if the words are not so tender   
             Em          D                  D7                  Gm Eb7 G#m    
She will always remember, the way it used to be   
                                          C#m Eb7                                        G#m 
Friends stop by and say hello,          and I laugh and hide the pain 
                                   C#m Eb7                                     G# 
It's quite easy 'til they go,          Then the song begins again 
                                                         Eb7   
So play the song the way it used to be   
                                                         G#  
Before she left and changed it all to sadness   
       C#                                            G#  
And maybe, if she's passing by the window   
             Fm       Eb                      Eb7  G#  
She will hear a love song, and a melody   
       C#                                         G#  
And even if the words are not so tender   
              Fm          Eb                Eb7                G# Bbm G#  
She will always remember,,the way it used to be...
