Way Back When/Aimee Mann
D A D A B7 D
A Em
Well, I guess that this is now the end
D F#m
Who’d have thought my old friend
C#m D
We signed the papers and we capped the pen
A Em
But I remember you from way back when
D F#m
‘Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
C#m D
welcome David-what’s-his-name-again’
F#m E
Things change the old cliche
C#m F#m
If we knew now what we knew yesterday
D A D A B7 D
Oh, we couldn’t give it away
A Em
I was working at a record store
D F#m
I knew you, you knew the score
C#m D
Some kind of deal is what we’re looking for
A Em
Time came, and disappeared
D F#m
No one steered and it got weirder
C#m D
Help was needed, no one volunteered.
F#m E
Things change, you got to wait a bit
C#m F#m
What made me think that I could weather it?
D A D A B7 D
You’re down before you even notice you’ve been hit
G
And through it all I wondered where the
D A E
Bus was taking you who knew?
G D
And even though my one and one was always
A E Bm
Making two I never thought that I was breaking you
D E
Uh oh
A Em D F#m C#m D
D E F#m G#m A
A Em
We were victims of the old taboo
D F#m
But people change we changed too
C#m D
Just make it count before they get to you.
F#m E
Things change baby, hold the phone!
C#m F#m
They’ll shoot you down like you was Al Capone
D A D A B7 D
Oh, you better go it alone
A Em
Well, I guess that this is now the end
D F#m
The paper’s signed forget the pen
C#m D
Wonder if we’ll ever meet again?
