D A D A B7 D

A                          Em

Well, I guess that this is now the end

D                         F#m

Who'd have thought my old friend

C#m                          D

We signed the papers and we capped the pen

A                           Em

But I remember you from way back when

D                        F#m

'Good evening, ladies and gentlemen

C#m                       D

welcome David-what's-his-name-again'

F#m               E

Things change the old cliche

C#m                       F#m

If we knew now what we knew yesterday

D A             D         A  B7 D

Oh, we couldn't give it away

A                  Em

I was working at a record store

D               F#m

I knew you, you knew the score

C#m                              D

Some kind of deal is what we're looking for

A              Em

Time came, and disappeared

D                  F#m

No one steered and it got weirder

C#m                     D

Help was needed, no one volunteered.

F#m                       E

Things change, you got to wait a bit

C#m                     F#m

What made me think that I could weather it?

D             A             D       A          B7 D

You're down before you even notice you've been hit

G

And through it all I wondered where the

D             A       E

Bus was taking you who knew?

G                            D

And even though my one and one was always

A      E                       Bm

Making two I never thought that I was breaking you

D   E

Uh oh

A Em D  F#m C#m D

D E F#m G#m A

A                            Em

We were victims of the old taboo

D           F#m

But people change we changed too

C#m                            D

Just make it count before they get to you.

F#m                 E

Things change baby, hold the phone!

C#m                       F#m

They'll shoot you down like you was Al Capone

D  A           D       A  B7 D

Oh, you better go it alone

A                          Em

Well, I guess that this is now the end

D                 F#m

The paper's signed forget the pen

C#m                  D

Wonder if we'll ever meet again?
