[Verse]

          C                         G     C

Did I lose your love a long time ago

Or did I â€œ wear it out? baby I don't know



[Instrumental]

C   G    C    Am    F



[Verse]

C                                             G                C

seems like anymore we're not on the same page

Am                          F

In the same book, or on the same stage

C                 G          C

We say the words, but they feel all wrong

            Am                      F

Like a happy blues, like a sad love song

F                                Em           Am

How two people can bow and scrape

                   F                      G

For every shred of tenderness



[Chorus]

G                             C

Can love stand the test

      F         G

Of times that surround us

Am                         G

Memories that astound us

               F

Joy and happiness

G                C

Can love stand the test?

C                                              G      C

A long time ago, or was it just yesterday

                       Am                           F

why would we fall out of love? Baby you can say?

C                 G      C

Don't look at me like I'm stranger now

Am                                              F

Have I changed that much? Baby tell me how



[Pre-Chorus]

F                                Em           Am

How two people can bow and scrape

                   F                      G

For every shred of tenderness



[Chorus]

G                            C

Can love stand the test

      F          G

Of times that surround us

Am                         G

Moments that astound us

But the years were not impressed
