The What It Was

[Intro] E  C#m  G#m  A  B

E                     C#m     
 I drove through the desert last 
    G#m    A B
night
E              C#m               
 I carried the weight of our last
G#m   A B
 fight
E                            C#m 
Elvis singing 'don’t be cruel’ 
           G#m
and I wonder if you feel it too.
     A         B
It’s like we’re going under

C#m                       F#m    
    Somewhere outside the lonely 
                     G#m
Esmeralda County line
                     A             
The question of my heart came to my
      B
 mind

A            E
If I go on with you by my side
      C#m      B     B           
Can it be the way it was when we 
A
met?
          E                   
Did you forget all about those 
  B
golden nights?

E       C#m                 G#m  
 Maybe a thief stole your heart
  A B

E            B            C#m
 or maybe we just drifted apart

A          B      E            
I remember driving in my daddy’s car
C#m
 to the airfield
G#m                  A           
Blanket on the hood, backs 
      B
against the windshield

C#m                       F#m    
   Back then this thing was 
                              G#m
running on momentum, love and trust
                 A                 B
That paradise is buried in the dust

A            E
If I go on with you by my side
       C#m      B      B      
Can it be the way it was when we 
    A
met?
          E                   
Did you forget all about those 
  B
golden nights?
(The way it was, it was.)

F#m                           C#m
All of our plans are falling 
      G#m
through
F#m                              
Sometimes a dream, it don’t come 
B
true

( A  C#m  B )
( A  E  B )

    A     E
Darling darling
(If we go on can it be) Can it be 
C#m      B     B           A
the way it was when we met?
          E                     B
Did you forget all about them golden
 nights?

        A        E
If I go on with you by my side
       C#m      B     B
Can it be the way it was
              A                E
My heart is true, girl, it's just 
you
             B                     
I'm thinking of, Can it be the way 
      E
it was?

( C#m  G#m  A  B )

E         C#m              G#m  A  B
 (Maybe a thief stole your heart)
