The Way Things Used to Be  Peter Salett

I've got an old friend
[A]Getting married this weekend
[C]It does not [D]seem like I'll be [G]there.[A7]
[G]But I've been tracing
[A]Tryin' to remember
[C]Some of the [D]things we used to [G]care ab[A7]out
[C]When ya gonna [D]save a [G]corner
[Em]of a place I haven't seen?
[C]When ya gonna [D]have me[G] over?
[Em]Like the way things used to be
[C] [D] The way things used to [G]be
[Em]The way things used to[C] be[D] [G] [A7]
[G]I don't want it all back,
[A]I don't mind where I'm at
[C]I've been [D]trying to stand [G]tall.[A7]
[G]But I've been placing
[A]So much of my mind's eyes
[C]Just trying [D]to see over these [G]walls.
[A7]I put in front of me
[C]When ya gonna a[D]nswer a[G] phone call?
[Em]I'll say I'm on your street
[C]I think we used to [D]laugh Into the[G] morning
[Em]The way things used to be
[C] [D] The way things used to [G]be
[Em]The way things used to be[C] [D] [G]
[Em]Most of the time when it fa[D]des away[G]
Em D G Em -> D -> G -> A7
I don't really mind reshaping clay
[C]I wasn't[D] always such a [G]sucker
[Em]It's the sentimental me
[C]Maybe I'm[D] blowing my co[G]ver
[Em]But what I wanna see
[C] [D] Is the way things used to [G]be
[Em]between you and me.
[C] The[D] way things used to [G]be.
