[Intro]
  G|   G|  Bm   A|   Bm|   G|   G|   A| A  
[Verse]
Those Bmstormy years leave F#mdeep and endless Gtrails across his Dface
He'll wander back when Amorning rolls a- Dround
For it's an Bmold man's right to F#mspend his life just Gsearchin' for a Dplace
Where he can sit and Awatch the sun go Ddown
Times Bmrun it's course and F#mfreed the horse that Gpulled him through the Dprime
And placed a different Alight above their Dbrow
Now Bmtowering rows of F#mbuildings grow in Gfields they left be- Dhind
And life seems twice as Aheavy as a Dplow
[Chorus]
So Bmcrowd around the corner, boys, and Dtake your good old time
And pass along a piece of yester- Gday
A Bmtender breeze of F#mmemories is Gblowin?f through your Dmind
Softer than those Astrands of silve- Dgrey
[Instrumental] 
|   Bm|   Bm|   G|   D|   D|   A|   D| D  
[Verse]
With Bmgolden chains the F#mold men cling to the Gwatch inside the Dvest
That tells them when it's Atime to move a- Dlong
Just Bmrambling through the F#mavenues, they'll Gsometimes stop to Drest
But it's hard to find the Aplace where they be- Dlong
[Chorus]
So Bmcrowd around the corner, boys, and Dtake your good old time
And pass along a piece of yester- Gday
A Bmtender breeze of F#mmemories is Gblowin?f through your Dmind
Softer than those Astrands of silve- Dgrey
[Tag]
And Dsweeter than the Athings you've seen to- Bmday

Those stormy years leave deep and endless trails across his face

Now towering rows of buildings grow in fields they left be- hind

And life seems twice as heavy as a plow

[Chorus]

So crowd around the corner, boys, and take your good old time

And pass along a piece of yester- day

A tender breeze of memories is blowin?f through your mind

So crowd around the corner, boys, and take your good old time

And pass along a piece of yester- day
