verse 1 
Am                              F 
 'Time goes by and every single tear 
F 
It must have well run dry 
        Dm 
And the lonely nights 
         Em               Am 
Become a strange accepted way 

verse 2 
Am 
And the years go past 
Am 
Just like the old song says 
    F 
The pain with time has healed, it couldn't last 
    Dm                 Em 
But oh a friend like a fool 
              Am 
Mentions your name 

Bridge 
      Dm7             G7 
Sunny days, drunken nights 
              Cmaj7       Fmaj7 
You smile and say, it's alright 
           Dm   Fm   E7 
But oh the cold cold rain 
                       Am 
At the mention of your name 

Interlude 
Am    F   Dm  Em  Am 

Bridge 
           Dm 
Forgive me please 
           G 
If I shrug my shoulders 
           C 
When I put my friend at ease 
   F 
As I get older 
               Bm                E           Am 
It's not that I don't feel colder than before 
          Dm              G7 
Oh I've become so good at hiding 
       C               F 
What I feel without confiding 
               Bm7                        E7 
It's still the same, darling still the same 
                       Am 
At the mention of your name'
