Verse 1
AWe passed upon the stairs,
DmAndA spoke in walls and wells, Although I wasn't there
FHeC said I was his friend, Which came as a surprise
AI Dmspoke into his eyes, I thought you died alone
CA long, long time ago.
Chorus
COhF no, not me, We never lost control,
CYoFu're face, to face, With the man who sold the world.
Riff 1: 6 Times
AI laughed and shook his hand
DmAndA made my way back home, I searched afar the land,
FfoCr years and years I roamed, I gazed a gazely stare
AWeDm walked a million hills, I must have died alone,
CA long long time ago
Chorus II
CWhFo knows, not me, I never lost control,
CYoFu're face, to face, With the man who sold the world.
Riff 1: 6 times
