Old friends

F#m7          B              E       C#m
Sat on their park bench like bookends

B
A newspaper blown through the grass

             C#m
Falls on the round toes

       C#m/B
Of the high shoes

       Amaj7 G#m7
Of the old friends

Amaj7 Emaj7
Old friends

F#m7    B
Winter companions

   Amaj7 G#m7
The old men

F#m7          B
Lost in their overcoats

E               C#m
Waiting for the sunset

B
The sounds of the city

                C#m
Sifting through trees

             B
Settle like dust

          A
On the shoulders

       F#m7 C#m
Of the old friends

F#m7       B
Can you imagine us

Emaj7
Years from today

F#m7       B7         Emaj7
Sharing a park bench quietly?

     F#m7      B
How terribly strange

        C#sus4
To be seventy

Amaj7 Emaj7
Old friends

F#m7     B         F#m7 G#m7
Memory brushes the same years

F#m7     B7           E   C#m
Silently sharing the same fears
