There Was A Time

[Intro] Bm  F#m  E  Bm  Bm6

Bm
Broken glass and cigarettes
A
Writin' on the wall
       E
It was a bargain for the summer
   B
And I thought I had it all
      Bm
I was the one who gave you 
everything
  A
The one who took the fall
       E
You were the one who would do 
anything
  B
The one who can't recall
     Bm
Where she was while she was sleepin'
   A
In another women's bed
     E
Or the doctor's or the lawyer's
     B
Or the stranger that she met
        Bm
If there's nothing I can gain from 
this
  A
Or anything at all
         E
It'd be the knowledge that you gave 
me
   E
When I thought I'd heard it all

[Estribillo]

      E         F7M(11+)
It was a long time for you
   G6   E        F7M(11+)
It was a long time for me
     G6   E         F7M(11+)
It'd be a long time for anyone but
E     F7M(11+)        G6
Looks like it's meant to be

Bm
Social class and registers
A
Cocaine in the hall
E
All the way from California
B
On the way to your next call
Bm
To those non-negotiations
A
To simulate a cause
E
For the betterment of evils
B
And your ways around the laws
Bm
That keep you up and sitting pretty
A
On a pedestal or bed
E
And now you're sleeping like an 
angel
B
Never mind who you gave head
Bm
If there's somethin' I can make of 
this
A
Or anything at all
E
It'd be the devil hates a loser
B
And you thought you had it all

It was a long time for me
     G6   E         F7M(11+)

D          C#m
If I could go back in time
     E7
To the place in my soul

There all alone
G           F#
Lonely teardrops, ooh
        Bm
Are callin' you
  A                 G
But I don't want to know it now
        F#m
Cause knowin' you
              E    E7
It won't change a damn thing
          Bm     Bm6
But there was a time

[Solo] Bm  A  E  Bm

       Bm  F#m  E  E7
       Bm  A  E  E7

Bm
Yeah there was a time
A
Didn't wanna know it all
E
Didn't wanna know it all
 E7
And I don't wanna know it now 
(Repeat once more)

( Bm  A  E  E7 )

Bm       A        E
I would do anything for you
There was a time
Bm       A        E
I would do anything for you
Bm       A        E
I would do anything for you

There was a time
