It was late in December, the sky turned to snow
G              A       Bm    A    G
 All round the day was going down slow
D             A       F#m        G

Well, I'm not the kind to live in the past
    G             A             Bm   A   G
The years run too short and the days too fast
D               A           F#m               G
 The things you lean on are things that don't last
           G            A       Bm   A    G
Well, it's just now and then my line gets cast into these

Bb                         Gm6                            Bm
 Don't know why you should feel that there's something to learn
 E                         [ D ]
   It's just a game that you play

Well, the picture is changing, now you're part of a crowd
        G           A                 Bm A     G
They're laughing at something and the mu-sic's loud
  D            A              F#m          G
A girl comes towards you, you once used to know
