C#C#
Avalon, how did these things happen?
Avalon, tell me all you know
      G#G#    C#C#
The perfect crime, we laughed about it,
            G#G#
laughed the whole night through
   C#C#                G#G#
When we were caught, it was because of you
C#C#
Talkin bout all that we once knew

C#C#
Avalon, the clock is falling back now
Avalon, we'd be if we could
      G#G#    C#C#             G#G#
You used to say "the water's fine, nevermind the view"
 C#C#              G#G#
I didn't mind as long as I have you
C#C#
Talkin bout all that we've been through

F#F# G#G#  F#F# G#G#        FF    D#D#  C#C#
Somedays, somedays we might be tired of being tired
F#F# G#G#  F#F# G#G#     FF   D#D#   C#C#
We claim, we claim to be one of one of one

     G#G#    C#C#
We didn't know the things we said
        G#G#
Would turn out untrue
  C#C#                  G#G#         C#C#
The day would come when I'd be somewhere new and what about you
                           FF    D#D#  C#C#
Times have changed for me and times have changed for you, for you
                  C#7C#7
Talkin bout all that we once knew
