The Way We Were / Try To Remember Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Hey you know everybody's talkin'
about the good old days
Everybody the good old days
The good old days
[Am]Well, let's talk about the
[Dsus4]good old days[D]
Come to think about it
[G]As bad as we think they are
These will become the good
[D]old days of our chil[Dsus4]dren[D]
Why [G]don't we [Am]try to remember[D]
The kind of Septem[G]ber
When [Em]life [Am]was slow and
oh so [D]mellow[G]
Try to [Am]remember
And if you remember
[Dsus4]Then foll[C]ow
[D]Why[G] does it always
seem the [Em]past is better
[Dsus4]We look back[D] and think
The winters were warm[G]er
The [Em]grass was greener
[Dsus4]The skies were bluer[D]
The smiles were brighter
[C]Can it be that it [Am]was all
so simple [Bm]then
Or has time [E]rewritten [Am]every line
And if we had [C]the chance to [D]do it all again
Tell [G]me
[Am]Would we?[Dsus4]
Could [D]we?

[Verse 2]
[G]Memories [Cm]like [Am]the[C]
corners [Em]of my mind
[D]Memor[G]ies[C]
[Bm]Misty watercolor m[Em]emori[C]es
[Dsus4]Of the way we were[G][Am][Dsus4]
[G]Scattered [Bm]pictures [C]of [Em]the
smiles we left [G]behind[C]
Smiles [Bm]we gave to one [Em]another[C]
For [Dsus4]the way w[D]e were
[G]

[Verse 3]
[C]Oh can it be that it was all
[Bm]so simpl[Am]e then
[Bm]Or has time rewritten every line[Em][E][Am]
And if we had the chance
to do [Dsus4]it all ag[D]ain
Tell [G]me
Would [Bbm]we?
[Eb]Could we?[Ab]
[Cm]Memo[Ab]r

[Verse 4]
[Db]ies may be beau
[Fm]tiful and [Eb]yet[Db]
[Cm]What's too pain[C]ful to [Fm]remem[Eb] ber[Ab]
[Db]We simply choo[C]se to fo[Fm]rget
[Db]So i[Cm]t's th[C]e laughter
[Db]we'll reme[Cm]mber[Db]
We'll [Cm]re membe[Fm]r[Bbm]
Whenever [Ab]we re[Eb]member[Ab]
[Cm][Fm][E][Ebsus4]
[Eb]The Way We Were
