1st Verse:   (2 Guitars)


                        A                      Dm
We passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when
                      A                         F
Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend
                          C                     A
Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes
                       Dm
I thought you died alone, a long long time ago

                            A                         Dm
I laughed and shook his hand, and made my way back home
                            A                         F
I searched for form and land, for years and years I roamed
                     C                        A
I gazed a gazely stare at all the millions here
                      Dm
We must have died alone, a long, long time ago
