VERSE
G+G
Hey how about this
Gm7Gm7
A augmentedA little conversation tonight
Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb
Thinking aloud how we struggled to find
FF C majorC
Our place in the dizzy heights
G+G
Don't often do this
Gm7Gm7
We never really get the chance
Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb
Nearly froze to death on Oxford Street
FF C majorC
Now we're sitting in the South of France
BRIDGE
A minorAm
Talking through the evening
E minor 7Em7
It's good to shoot the breeze
C majorC G/BG/B
Just you and me on a balcony
A7A7
And cicadas singing in the trees
CHORUS
G+G D/F#D/F# G/F
Old '67 what a time it was
C/EC/E Eb MajorEb FF
What a time of innocence, what a time we've lost
G+G D/F#D/F# G/F C/EC/E
Raise a glass and have a laugh, have a laugh or two

Here's to old '67 and an older me and you

VERSE
G+G
Sentimental twilight
Gm7Gm7
Conversing on those virgin days
Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb
Laughing about how the two of us sound
FF C majorC
Like a Tennessee Williams play
G+G
Honest, it's amazing
Gm7Gm7
That we can get together at all
Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb
For in between the saddle and the grand piano
FF C majorC
We can read the writing on the wall
BRIDGE
A minorAm
Talking through the evening
E minor 7Em7
Sitting here side by side (here side by side)
C majorC G/BG/B
Just you and me on a balcony

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
