Now and Then Gordon Lightfoot
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO:] C F C F Em
[VERSE 1:]
I think this [F]time[C]
You've said e[F]nough to make me [Em]want to leave this [Am]place[D7/F#]
Still I keep [F]coming back for [Em]more of the [Am]same
To [Dm7]fan the dying [G]flame
[VERSE 2:]
[C]Here inside these walls that seem to [Am]move a little [C]closer every [F]day[D7/F#]
[C]There must be a way out of this [G]crazy game we play out to the [Am]end[F]
[C]Let us just pretend a while[G]
Think about the good things now and [Am]then[F] [C] [F] [Em]
[VERSE 3:]
I think this [F]time[C]
That was the [F]best time that we [Em]two had ever [Am]known[D7/F#]
We tried the [F]handle of the [Em]house upon the [Am]shore
[Dm7]Found the open [G]door
[VERSE 4:]
[C]Once inside we found a curious [Am]moonbeam doing [C]dances on the [F]floor[D7/F#]
[C]We were only playing like two [G]children who had stayed away from [Am]school[F]
[C]Two of us could not be wrong
[G]Heaven knows who keeps the golden [Am]rule[F] [C] [F] [Em]
[VERSE 5:]
I think this [F]time[C]
We've learned e[F]nough to know that [Em]nothing is the [Am]same[D7/F#]
But still the [F]pounding of my [Em]heart hasn't [Am]changed
And [Dm7]leaving's so [G]strange
[VERSE 6:]
[C]Here among my thoughts of you I [Am]find a gentle [C]longing to be [F]free[D7/F#]
[C]There must be a way out of this [G]crazy game we play out to the [Am]end[F]
But [C]take away the in-between[G]
Think about the good things now and [Am]then[F] [D7/F#]
[VERSE 7:]
[C]We will see the day when you or [G]I will stay or face up to the [Am]end[F]
[C]Let us just pretend awhile[G]
And think about the good things now and [Am]then
