[Intro]
D A D

[Verse 1]
D A
I'm thinking of you tonight old pal
D
And wishing that you were here
G D
I'm dreaming of the times and the days gone by
E7 A
When you filled my heart with cheer

[Verse 2]
D A
I remember the nights when all alone
D
We sang Sweet Adeline
G D
No other face can take your place
E7 A D
In my heart old pal of mine

[Verse 3]
D A
The old pals are always the best you see
D
New friends you can find every day
G D
But they can't fill their places or ever be
E7 A D
Like the old pals of yesterday

[Verse 4]
D A
I'm wondering where you are tonight
D
And if you ever think of me
G D
It would make my weary heart so light sweetheart
E7 A
your face again to see

[Verse 5]
D A
Cuz I remember the nights when all alone
D
We sang Sweet Adeline
G D
There's no other place I'd lay down my face
E7 A D
Than by your side old pal of mine

[Verse 6]
D A
Now in my checkered life I find
D
Nothing comes right it seems
G D
Still you'll always be a pal of mine
