Ab      C#/F      F#     C#/F


Ab                    C#/F
   Some moments that I've had

F#           C#/F
   Some moments of pleasure


Ab     C#/F      F#     C#/F

Ab                 C#/F
   I think about us lying

F#              Ab
Lying on a beach somewhere

                C#add9
I think about us diving

F#              C#/F            Ab
Diving off a rock, into another moment


C#/Ab      F#      C#/F


Ab             C#/F         F#
    The case of George the Wipe

   C#/F                   Ab
Oh God I can't stop laughing

             C#/F          F#
This sense of humour of mine

C#/F                   Ab      C#/F
It isn't funny at all

          F#
Oh but we sit up all night

C#/F             Absus4
Talking about it



Ab               Fb
   Just being alive

F#              Absus4    Ab
   It can really hurt

              Fb
These moments given

F#                 Ab      C#/F      F#      C#/F
   Are a gift from time


Ab                C#/Ab
   On a balcony in New York

F#/Ab           C#/Ab
      It's just started to snow

Ab                   C#/Ab
  He meets us at the lift

     F#m
Like Douglas Fairbanks

C#/F               Ab
    Waving his walking stick

C#/F                     F#      C#
    But he isn't well at all

    F#       C#/F
The buildings of New York

Ab7sus4           C#/F                 F#
     Look just like mountains through the snow



N.C.             Fb
     Just being alive

F#             Absus4    Ab
   It can really hurt

               Fb
These moments given

F#                Ab
   Are a gift from time

N.C.             C#/F
    Just let us try

F#                       Ab
    To give these moments back

             Fb
To those we love

F#                    Ab      C#/Ab      F#/Ab      C#/F
To those who will survive



Ab                  C#/F
   And I can hear my mother saying

F#    C#/F           Ab                 C#/F
     "Every old sock meets an old shoe"

F#                            C#/F     Ab      C#/F      F#
   Ain't that a great saying?

 C#/F           Ab                 C#/F
"Every old sock meets an old shoe"

F#               C#/F
   Here come the Hills of Time


Ab      C#/F      F#     C#/F     Ab


C#/F                   F#      C#/F     Ab      C#/F     F#
    Hey there Maureen,

C#/F                  Ab
     Hey there Bubba,

C#/F                        F#
Dancing down the aisle of a plane,


C#/F      Ab      C#/F


F#           C#/F
   'S Murph, playing his guitar refrain,


Ab      C#/F      F#      C#/F      Ab


C#/F                F#
    Hey there Teddy,

C#/F                           Ab
Spinning in the chair at Abbey Road,


C#/F      F#      C#/F      Ab


C#/F              F#
Hey there Michael,

C#/F
    Do you really love me?


Ab      C#/F      F#     C#/F      Ab


C#/F               F#
    Hey there Bill,

C#/F
    d'you turn the lights up?


Ab      C#/F      F#     C#/F      Ab      Absus2
