D    D/F#    G    A

[Verse 1]
D         D/F#         G         A
I've been loving you a long time
D            D/F#                G    A
Down all the years, down all the days
D        D/F#               G        A
And I've cried for all your troubles
D              D/F#         G     A
Smiled at your funny little ways
D              D/F#            G        A
We watched our friends grow up together
D      D/F#             G     A
And we saw them as they fell
D       D/F#           G       A
Some of them fell into Heaven
D       D/F#           G     A
Some of them fell into Hell


[Verse 2]
D      D/F#           G       A
I took shelter from a shower
D     D/F#              G     A
And I stepped into your arms
D    D/F#           G     A
On a rainy night in Soho
D            D/F#              G       A
The wind was whistling all its charms
D D/F#            G        A
I sang you all my sorrows
D   D/F#             G     A
You told me all your joys
D        D/F#             G          A
Whatever happened to that old song?
D            D/F#             G     
To all those little girls and boys
      A                D    D/F#  G  A
Those little girls and boys

D    D/F#    G    A
D    D/F#    G    A

[Verse 3]
D           D/F#           G        A
Sometimes I wake up in the morning
D          D/F#       G    A
The ginger lady by my bed
D       D/F#          G        A
Covered in a cloak of silence
D          D/F#          G     A
I hear you talking in my head
D       D/F#            G       A
I'm not singing for the future
D       D/F#            G     A
I'm not dreaming of the past
D       D/F#           G           A
I'm not talking of the first time
D       D/F#            G     A
I never think about the last

D        D/F#           G     A
Now this song is nearly over
D            D/F#             G      A
We may never find out what it means
D               D/F#         G          A
Still there's a light I hold before me
D          D/F#          G
You're the measure of my dreams
A                 D      D/F#    G  A
The measure of my dreams
