The Way It Used To Be

Intro: Em Am B7 Em B7

Em                 Am
Lonely table just for one,
B7                    Em
In a bright and crowded room.
                     Am
While the music has begun,
B7                       Em
I drink to memories in the gloom
Em                          Em
Though the music's still the same,
B7                       E
It has a bittersweet refrain.

                              B7
So play the song the way it used to 
be,
Continúa después del anuncio
Before she left and changed it all 
 E
to sadness
  A                               
And maybe, if she's passing by the 
E
window
   B7                           
She will hear a love song, and a 
 E
melody
A                               E
And even if the words are not so 
tender
B7                               
She will always remember,the way it 
Em
used to be.

Em                        Am
Friends stop by and say hello,
B7                      Em
And I laugh and hide the pain
                       Am
It's quite easy 'til they go,
B7                    E
Then the song begins again

B7
So play the song the way it used to 
be,
Before she left and changed it all 
 E
to sadness
  A                               
And maybe, if she's passing by the 
E
window
   B7                           
She will hear a love song, and a 
 E
melody
A                               E
And even if the words are not so 
tender
B7                               
She will always remember,the way it 
Em
used to be.
