Cmaj7                Bm7
  There was that girl I used to know

Am7
  She'd tease me about my name

Cmaj7          Bm7   
 Fan the embers long enough

 Am7  
I sometimes catch her flame

Cmaj7               Bm7
  The soothing voice of distance tells me

Am7
   "That was just a fling"

Cmaj7       Bm7   
 Other music fills my ears

   Am7  
But I still hear her sing, she sings

Cmaj7          Bm7
Paddy Joe, say Paddy Joe

     Am7
Don't you remember me?

Cmaj7            Bm7   
 How long ago one gorgeous night

   Am7  
We let the stars go

Cmaj7          Bm7
Paddy Joe, say Paddy Joe

     Am7
Don't you remember me?

Cmaj7            Bm7

Cmaj7            Bm7
  There was a boy I used to be

Am7
  I guess that he was cold

Cmaj7           Bm7   
 If she came to buy him now

   Am7  
How cheaply he'd be sold

        Cmaj7             Bm7
But the light is gone and it is dark

Am7
  What used to be the sky

Cmaj7          Bm7   
 Is suddenly embarrassing

Am7  
 To the naked eye, you see ...

Cmaj7          Bm7
Paddy Joe, see Paddy Joe

     Am7
Can't face this memory

Cmaj7            Bm7   
 How long ago one gorgeous night

   Am7  
We let the stars go

Cmaj7          Bm7
Paddy Joe, see Paddy Joe

     Am7
Can't face this memory

Cmaj7            Bm7   
 How long ago one gorgeous night

   Am7  
We let the stars go

Cmaj7        Bm7
 Long ago one gorgeous night

   Am7  
We let the stars go

Cmaj7         Bm7
  Long ago one stupid night
