  			Dan Fogelberg - Faces Of America 
  
  
Intro: G  C  (4x)  G 
  
                 C G 
There was a time 
               C G 
A simpler time  
                                     D      C-D-G 
When a man could be sure of where he stood  
                           C G 
I used to work at the yard 
                        C G 
Working honest and hard  
                                     D      C-D-G 
The hours were long, but the pay was good  
  
  
                           C G 
I had a family and friends 
                C G 
So many friends  
                              D     C-D-G 
We'd drive to the lake on holidays  
                            C G 
Back then it wasn't so dear 
                       C G 
For a sandwich or beer  
                                       D     C 
At night I still dream I can see their faces  
  
  
Chorus:
