INTRO: D  A  D  A 
 
D 
Look at that old photograph 
G            A 
Is it really you 
D               G            A 
Smiling like a baby full of dreams 
D  
Smiling ain't so easy now 
G                A 
Some are comin' true 
D            G           A 
Nothing's a simple as it seems 
 
Bm                         G                    D 
But I guess you count your blessings with the problems 
Bm           G            A 
That you're dealing with today 
G                         A           D     A      D 
Like the changing of the seasons 
 
D                G    Bm 
Ain't you come a long way 
D                 G    Bm 
(Ain't you come a long way) 
D                 G   Bm   A 
Ain't you come a long way down 
         D 
This old road
 
 
 
Looking at the future 
Running out of time 
On a face you used to know 
Traces of a future lost 
In between the lines 
One more rainbow for the road 
 
Thinking of the faces in the window 
That you passed along the way 
Or the last thing you believed in 
 
CHORUS 
 
SOLO 
 
Bm                G         D 
Say you tried to chase the sun down 
Bm       G           A 
And you let it slip away 
G                     A        D     A       D 
And the holy night is falling 
 
CHORUS 
 
D                           G (let ring)         D 
Look at that old photograph, is it really you
