I Knew You When

       F                      Bb
In the ancient middle fifties,
    C               F
the closin' sixties roar
      F                 Bb
I was caught up in your passion
        C            F
I could only beg for more
F                Bb
  And if I had a dollar bill
    C              F
I'd give it to you then
F                     Bb
  So I could tell the whole wide 
world
    C              F
One day I knew you when

F Bb C F x2

[Verse 2]
          F                 Bb
With your dangerous charisma
     C                F
Your thundering attack
    F                Bb
You charged the very air I breathe
    C              F
And kept me coming back

    F                    Bb
You helped me through my darkest 
hours
     C             F
You always were my friend
    F               Bb
You gave me hope to carry on
  C                F
Because I knew you when

[Bridge]
Bb                    Am         
  I knew you when the mountain 
        Bb                 F
tops were right beneath your feet
Bb                  F            
  When artistry and freedom were 
   C
complete
  Bb               C       F     
Before you were an icon, before 
    A         Dm  F  Bb
they all tuned in
           C             F
You could say I knew you when

F Bb C F x2

[Verse 3]
      F                       Bb
We all sit here with our memories,
     C                F
of a glorious long ago
         F                  Bb
When our heroes seemed immortal,
C                F
were they really so
       F                Bb
It's a question for a wiser man
      C         F
I will not ask again
       F                  Bb
I will only say I'm grateful
         C               F
For the time I knew you when

            F               Bb
I knew you when (I knew you when)
C               F
Oh, I knew you when
           F                Bb
I knew you when (I knew you when)
C               F
Yeah I knew you when

           F                  Bb
