[INTRO]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G
Once I was young yesterday, perhaps
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G
Danced with Jill and Jane just like the other chaps.
Am7 Ddim Am7 Ddim
Once I was young, but never was naive.
Fmaj7 Dm7 G Am
I thought I had a trick or two up my imaginary sleeve.
Ddim C Ddim Am7 Fdim7
And now I know I was naive.
[VERSE 1]

I didn't know what time it was then I met you.
Gm7 A Am7 G Fmaj7 Cmaj7sus4 Dm7 Fdim7

Grand to see your face, feel your touch, hear your voice say I'm all your own.
[VERSE 3]
Fmaj7 G Ddim Am7 Fmaj7 G Dm7
I didn't know what year it was - life was no prize.
Gm7 A Am7 G Fmaj7 Cmaj7sus4 G Fm
I wanted love and here it was shining out of your eyes. I'm
[OUTRO]
Fmaj7 G Am7 Ddim G Fmaj7 Fm C Am7 Fm G7 Cmaj7
wise, And I know what time it is now.
