Days That Used To Be : Ragged Glory
GPeople say don't rock the boat,
Let Cthings go their own Gway
Ideas that onBmce seemed so right
Now Chave gotten harAmd to say
I Dwish that I could Gtalk to you,
C020010 Am  
And that you could talk to me
G200003
'Cos there's very few of us
Emleft my Dfriend
From the Cdays that used to Fbe
G   C   Gx2
Seemed like such a simple thing, to follow ones own dream
But possessions and concessions are not often what they seem
They drag you down, they load you down, in disguise of security
But we never had to make those deals
In the days that used to be
Talk to me, my long lost friend, tell me how you are
Are you happy with your circumstance, are you driving a new car?
Does it get you where you want to go, with a seven year warranty
Or just another hundred thousand miles away
From the days that used to be
