D D/C# Bm Bm/A
Two old friends of mine
G D A
I saw them only yesterday
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
They where there but I
G Bm Bm/A
Got the feeling they had gone away
G A
Gone away from each other
D D/C# Bm Bm/A G
But I was alone killing time
Bm Bm/A G
A stranger in the silence of their company
Two old friends of mine
Is this all life has left of you?
Who took the laughter, the times
We said what we were gonna do
When we were grown, ready
To take on the world with a song
And now the tune is one
You can’t remember
(Bridge:)
Em A
Who lost the reason
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
For being together?
G A D Bm
Who says the money won’t go round?
Em A
Once it was love
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
And we lived on a shoestring
G
But they don’t give no mortgage
Bm Bm/A G
On a castle in the air
Two old friends of mine
A dripping tap
And a broken old chair
And if I read between the lines
Someone’s lonely
Someone doesn’t care
If it’s all gone by tomorrow
For tomorrow’s been and gone
Like a bird
That has no home.
