A Long Time Ago   by   Jim Croce



INTRO:
G  D  Em  C  G


G                 D          Em   D
Seems like such a long time ago
C     G               D  C  G
I was walking down a lonely road
G                 D         Em   D
Getting tired of dreaming alone
C            G             D C   G
Like all the lonely people I had known

G                 D          Em   D
Seems like such a long time ago
C         G                D     C  G
There was no-one who would share my song
G            D            Em   D
I was just a boy far from home
C       G               D   C     G
But I became a man when you came along


C   G        Am    G     Em
We spent the whole night talking
    G          C       Em      D7  G
You said you'd like to see the sun rise
C          Am   G  Em
But in the gold of morning
                  G      C       Em      D7   G
There was nothing that I had not seen in your eyes
D Em D
Hmm  Hmm


C          G
I was so afraid to touch you
Am7                  G
Thought you were too young to know
   C                   G        Am7 Em D
So I just watched you sleeping
C                 G
Then you woke and said to me,
     Am7              G
"The night is cold it frightens me,
C                G            Am7  Em D Am7  Em D
I could sleep so easy next to you"


G           D     Em D
Wasn't very long ago
C             G                 D     C  G
You said that you would like to share my road
G                 D         Em   D
Then you started singing my song
C                  G
You said, "So many nights are waiting,
Am7               G              C
Let's not spend a moment wasting time,
               G           Am Em D
'Cause we have very far to go
C            G
I will go if you will take me
Am7          G
I have never had a lover
C              G        Am7  Em D Am7  Em D
I am young but I am so alone"



C  G         Am    G     Em       G  C  Em  D7  G
We spent the whole night talking
C          Am   G  Em        G C Em D7 G D Em Am D G
But in the gold of morning
Em   D
Hmmm
Em D   D7  G
