It s so nice to see an old friend, and pass the time of day 
    D                          D7             G 
And talk about the hometown, a million miles away 
                                       C                   Am 
Is the ice still in the river, are the old folks still the same 
           D            D7         G 
And by the way, did she mention my name 

        C          D            G 
Did she mention my name just in passing

And when the morning came, do you remember did she drop a name or two

Is the home team still on fire, do they still win all the games 
           D            D7         G 
And by the way, did she mention my name 

       G                              C                 Am 
Is the landlord still a loser, do the signs hang in the hall

Are the young girls still as pretty in the city in the fall 
                                        C              Am 
Does the laughter on their faces, still put the sun to shame 
           D            D7         G 
And by the way, did she mention my name 

        C          D            G 
Did she mention my name just in passing 
                      Em            A7                            D  D7 
And when the talk ran high, did the lookin' in her eyes seem far away 
       G                               C                  Am 
Is the old roof still leaking when the late snow turns to rain 
           D            D7         G 
And by the way, did she mention my name 

C                  D            G 
Did she mention my name just in passing 
                   Em             A7                              D  D7 
And looking at the rain, do you remember if she dropped a name or two 
          G                                  C            Am 
Won't you say hello from someone, they'll be no need to explain 
           D            D7         G    C G 
And by the way, did she mention my name
