The Carpenter
E G#m/D#
When I was young I'd listen to the radio
C#m E6/B
Waiting for my favorite songs
AMaj7 G#m7 E#0 F#m7 F#m7/B B
When they played I'd sing along, it made me smile.
E G#m/D#
Those were such happy times and not so long ago
C#m E6/B
How I wondered where they've gone
D#m7 G#7 C#m E6/B
But they're back again, just like a long lost friend
A F#m7 F#m7/B B
All the songs I love so well.
F#m7/B B E C#m E C#m
Eve ry sha-la-la-la, ev'ry wo-o-wo-o still shines,
E C#m7 F#m7 B
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling, that they're starting' to sing so fine.
C#m B#+
When they get to the part where he's breaking her heart
E/B A#m-5 E/B B (EMaj7 F#m7/E x2)
It can really make me cry just like before, its yesterday once more.
E G#m/D#
Looking back on how it was in years gone by
C#m E6/B
And the good times that I had
AMaj7 G#m7 F#m7 F#m7/B B
Makes today seem rather sad, so much has changed.
E G#m/D# C#m E6/B
It was songs of love that I would sing to them, and I'd memorize each word
D#m7 G#7 C#m E6/B A F#m7 F#m7/B B
Those old melodies still sound so good to me, as they melt the years away.
C#m B#+
*All my best memories come back clearly to me
E/B A#m-5 E/B B (EMaj7 F#m7/E x2)
Some can even make me cry just like before, it's yesterday once more
