ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Caught in the middle, Carol, we're middle class
ch]Am7[/ch
We're middle-aged, we were wild in the old days
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
Birth of rock n' roll days, now your kids are coming up straight
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
My child's a stranger, I bore her but I could not raise her
Pre-Chorus
ch]Em[/ch
Nothing lasts for long
ch]D[/ch
Nothing lasts for long
ch]C6[/ch
Nothing lasts for long
ch]Am7[/ch
Down at the Chinese Café
ch]Em[/ch
We'd be dreaming on our dimes
ch]Em[/ch
We'd be playing,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
"Oh my love, my darling"
ch]F[/ch
One more time
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Uranium money is booming in the old hometown now
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
It's putting up sleek concrete, tearing the old landmarks down now
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C6[/ch
Paving over brave little parks, ripping off Indian land again
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
How long, how long, short-sighted business man?
Pre-Chorus
ch]Em[/ch
Ah, nothing lasts for long
ch]D[/ch
Nothing lasts for long
ch]C6[/ch
Nothing lasts for long
ch]Am7[/ch
Down at the Chinese Café
ch]Em[/ch
We'd be dreaming on our dimes
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
We'd be playing, "You give your love so sweetly"
ch]D[/ch
One more time
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Christmas is sparkling out on Carol's lawn
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
This girl of my childhood games with kids nearly grown and gone
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C6[/ch
Grown so fast like the turn of a page
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
We look like our mothers did now when we were those kids' age
Pre-Chorus
ch]Em[/ch
Nothing lasts for long
ch]D[/ch
Nothing lasts for long
ch]C6[/ch
Nothing lasts for long
ch]Am7[/ch
Down at the Chinese Café
ch]Em[/ch
We'd be dreaming on our dimes
ch]Em[/ch
We'd be playing,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
"Oh my love, my darling
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
I've hungered for your touch
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
A long lonely time
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
And time goes by so slowly
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And time can do so much
ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
Are you still mine?
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I need your love
ch]Am7[/ch
I need your love
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
God speed your love to me"

(Time goes - where does the time go
I wonder where the time goes)
