♫ Intro:

G  Em  C D G




♫ Verse 1:
G                D
I'm very low but not too dim
            D7               G
I can still see the faces of you and him
    Bm                 Em
I remember well how it used to be
      A          D
You remember too obviously


♫ Chorus:
  G                                C            G
Remember when, remember when I was Tealby Abbey then
       Bm           Em         A                D
It was not so long ago maybe a hundred years or so
           F      C
When I was Tealby Abbey
         G
That's a long long time ago
           F      C
When I was Tealby Abbey
         G
That's a long long time ago


♫ Verse 2:
G                              D
When the clock stopped and the rocks dropped
                               G
And the gravel started giving away
      Bm                Em
I can still recall when we were small
    A                 D
But oh what a fateful day


♫ Verse 3:
   G                  D
In younger times, the children climb
                 G
Up and down your walls
      Bm                   Em
And a curse on the day the fates will say
     A            D
When Tealby Abbey falls


♫ Chorus:
  G                                C            G
Remember when, remember when I was Tealby Abbey then
       Bm           Em         A                D
It was not so long ago maybe a hundred years or so
           F      C
When I was Tealby Abbey
         G
That's a long long time ago
           F      C
When I was Tealby Abbey
         G
That's a long long time ago


♫ Interlude:
G D  G Bm Em A D G D
G Bm Em A D


♫ Chorus:
  G                                C            G
Remember when, remember when I was Tealby Abbey then
       Bm           Em         A                D
It was not so long ago maybe a hundred years or so
           F      C
When I was Tealby Abbey
         G
That's a long long time ago
           F      C
When I was Tealby Abbey
         G
That's a long long time ago


♫ Outro:
D       G
Ooh, oh man
