  			Am                 c 
    In the days of golden days 
         F         E7             E   Am   C 
    When everybody knew what they wan-ted 
             F           E7  E                         
    It ain't here today 


Am                       C 
    Through the times of lasting love 
         F                 E7               E  Am 
    When parents talked of things tried and tested 
C            F            E7  E    
    It don't feel the same 


Am  C       F             E7  E 
Dreams & belief have gone 
Am C         F           E7 E  
Time, life itself goes on 


Am                C 
   Far beyond the shrinkin' skies 
         F                       E7   E      Am   C 
   Where money talks & leaves us hypnotized 
         F            E7 E 
   Don't pave the way 


Am                C 
   Underneath the faded sun 
       F                 E7       E    Am    C 
   The silent sum of the business man 
               F        E7   E 
   Has left us chokin' 


Am  C       F             E7  E 
Dreams & belief have gone 
Am C         F           E7 E  
Time, life itself goes on 


Am                 c 
    In the days of golden days 
         F         E7             E   Am   C 
    When everybody knew what they wan-ted 
             F           E7  E                         
    It ain't here today 

Am  C       F             E7  E 
Dreams & belief have gone 
Am C         F           E7 E  
Time, life itself goes on 


Am  C  F  E7  E  ;  Am  C  F  E7  E 
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
