                    A  
We past upon the stairs  
                 Dm  
Spoken walls of when 
                  A  
Although I wasn´t there  
                  F  
Said I was his friend  
                   C  
Which came as a surprise 
                 A  
I spoke into his eyes  
                    Dm  
I thought you died alone  
                     C  
A long, long time ago

                        A  
I laughed and shook his hand  
               Dm  
Made my way become  
                         A  
I searched for foreign land  
                        F  
For years and years I romed  
                   C  
I gazed a pazly stare  
                      A  
We walked a millions hills 
                    Dm  
I must have died alone  
                     C  
A long, long time ago
