Those Were The Days guitar chords
Capo I or open
A minorAm DmDm E MajorE A minorAm
A minorAm
Once upon a time, there was a tavern
DmDm
Where we used to raise a glass or two
A minorAm
Remember how we laughed away the hours,
B7B7 E MajorE
Think of all the great things we would do
A minorAm
Those were the days, my friend
DmDm
We thought they'd never end
G+G G7G7 C majorC
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
DmDm
We'd live the life we'd choose
A minorAm
We'd fight and never lose
E MajorE A minorAm
For we were young and sure to have our way
A minorAm

La La La La La La La La La La
A minorAm
Then, the busy years went rushing by us
DmDm
We lost our starry notions on the way
A minorAm
If, by chance, I'd see you in the tavern,
B7B7 E MajorE
We'd smile at one another and we'd say
A minorAm
Those were the days, my friend
DmDm
We thought they'd never end
G+G G7G7 C majorC
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
DmDm
We'd live the life we'd choose
A minorAm
We'd fight and never lose
E MajorE A minorAm
For we were young and sure to have our way
A minorAm

A minorAm
Just tonight, I stood before the tavern
DmDm
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
A minorAm
In the glass, I saw a strange reflection
B7B7 E MajorE
Was that lonely woman really me?
A minorAm
Those were the days, my friend
DmDm
We thought they'd never end
G+G G7G7 C majorC
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
DmDm
We'd live the life we'd choose
A minorAm
We'd fight and never lose

A minorAm
Through the door, there came familiar laughter
DmDm
I saw your face and heard you call my name
A minorAm
Oh, my friend, we're older but no wiser
B7B7 E MajorE
For in our hearts, the dreams are still the same
A minorAm
Those were the days, my friend
DmDm
We thought they'd never end
G+G G7G7 C majorC
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
DmDm
We'd live the life we'd choose
