Chords

As recorded by Chris Rea (From the 1991 Album AUBERGE) [Verse 1]
Am                              F
 "Time goes by and every single tear

F
It must have well run dry

        Dm
And the lonely nights

         Em               Am
Become a strange accepted way
[Verse 2]
Am
And the years go past

Am
Just like the old song says

    F
The pain with time has healed, it couldn't last

    Dm                 Em
But oh a friend like a fool

              Am
Mentions your name
[Bridge]
      Dm7             G7
Sunny days, drunken nights

              Cmaj7       Fmaj7
You smile and say, it's alright

           Dm   Fm   E7
But oh the cold cold rain

                       Am
At the mention of your name
[Interlude] Am F Dm Em Am [Bridge]
           Dm
Forgive me please

           G
If I shrug my shoulders

           C
When I put my friend at ease

   F
As I get older

               Bm                E           Am
It's not that I don't feel colder than before

          Dm              G7
Oh I've become so good at hiding

       C               F
What I feel without confiding

               Bm7                        E7
It's still the same, darling still the same

                       Am
At the mention of your name"
