VERSE

We passed upon the stairs

Spoken wasn't well

Although I wasn't there He

Said I was his friend

Which came as a surprise I spoke

into his eyes I thought you died alone

A long, long time ago

CHORUS

Oh

no, not me

We never lost control

You're face to face

With the man who sold the world

| C#m | F# G# | E B | E |

VERSE

I laughed and

shook his hand And

Made my way back home I searched

for form and land For

Years and years I roamed I gazed

a gaze less stare

We walked a million hills I must have died

alone

A long, long time ago

CHORUS

Who knows?

Not me I never lost control

You're face to face

With the man who sold the world

| C#m | F# |

CHORUS

Who knows, not me, we

never lost control.

You're face to face, With the man,

who sold the world.
