Tom: Am
Am
[Verse]
Am
They sit and wait
Dm E
Waiting for the light to fade away
Am
Perhaps to rise another day to sit and wait
Dm F G
Another month, another year and still be here
C E
The same old place, the same old chair
F
Every day is much the same
E
It only changes name
Am
They sit and wait
[Instrumental]
Am F E Am F E
[Verse]
N.C. Am
There was a time
Dm E
When hope was in their hearts and drove them on
Am
There was a time to carry on, this was their time
Dm F G
For they were young and unafraid and plans were made
C E
Before the flowers came to fade
F
But those days have passed away
E
And they just look at you and say
Am
There was a time
[Instrumental]
Am F E Am F E
[Verse]
N.C. Am
Oh, how they danced
Dm E
They all remember clear, how they danced
Am
They danced with ribbons in their hair, and how they sang
Dm F G
When wedding bells were rung and sung again
C E
For they were busy being young
F
When they close their eyes it seems
E
They're still dancing in their dreams
Am
And how they danced
F E Am
How they danced
