Those Were The Days
By Bobby Vinton

//Tab by Apts//

[Verse 1]
Am
Once upon a time, there was a tavern,
A7 Dm
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Dm Am
Remember how we laughed away the hours
B7 E7
And dreamed of all the great things we would do

[Verse 2]
Am
Then, the busy years went rushing by us
A7 Dm
We lost our starry notions on the way
Dm Am
If, by chance, I'd see you in the tavern,
B7 E7 E
We'd smile at one another and we'd say

[Chorus 1]
Am
Those were the days, my friend
Dm
We thought they'd never end
G7 C
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
Dm
We'd live the life we'd choose
Am
We'd fight, we'd never lose
E7 Am
For we were young and sure to have our way
Am
Di di di di di di
Dm
Di di di di di di
E7 Am
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days

[Verse 3]
Am
Just tonight, I stood before the tavern
A7 Dm
Nothing seemed the way it used to mean
Dm Am
In the glass, I saw a strange reflection
B7 E7
Was that lonely fella really me?

[Chorus 2]
Am
Those were the days, my friend
Dm
We thought they'd never end
G7 C
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
Dm
We'd live the life we'd choose
