Fmaj7 Cmaj7    Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Old   friends. Old   friends.
Dm/F         G7              C       Am
Sat on their park bench like bookends.
  G                                              Am
A newspaper blown through the grass falls on the round toes
       Am/G              Fmaj7 Cmaj7
of the high shoes of the old   friends.

[Verse]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7    Dm/F       G7          Fmaj7 Em7
Old   friends. Winter companions, the old   men.
Dm/F          G7        C               Am
Lost in their overcoats waiting for the sunset.

[Bridge]
    G                                    Am
The sounds of the city, shifting through trees
            G           F                Dm9         Am
settle like dust on the shoulders of the old friends.

[Middle 8]
Dm/F     G7        Cmaj7             F6        Fm6        Cmaj7
Can you imagine us years from today, sharing a park bench quietly?
    Dm/F     G7            Asus4
How terribly strange to be seventy.

[Verse]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7    Dm/F   G7          Fmaj7 Em7
Old   friends. Memory brushes the same  years.
G                    C    Am
Silently sharing the same fears.

Dm/F                                         Cmaj7
Time it was and what a time it was, it was a ...
          F                    Cmaj7
A time of innocence, a time of confidences
Dm/F                          C
Long ago it must be, I have a photograph
              F
Preserve your memories,
                   C
they're all that's left you.
