long before the parson lugged his bicycle, down beside the market square
G Em C G
villages and fields in perfect harmony, long before you came 'round here
G Dm G
i'll take you back to a time, when our lives were so full and clear
Dm G
we hung suspended in love, now each memory's a souvenier
G Dm G
ahh ahh ahh.................
G Dm G

G Dm G
i'll take you back to a time, when our lives were so full and clear
Dm G
we hung suspended in love, now each memory's a souvenier
