Funny how time slips away (midi)    (Listen to sample)

 

                  D          G                                            D

1. Well, hello there,    my, it's been a long, long time.

                                G                                            D

    How am I doing?     Oh, I guess that I'm doing fine.

                                                    D7            G                                      E

    It`s been so long now, and it seems now     that it was only yesterday.

                         A               A7               D  - G - D

    Gee, ain't it funny, how time slips away.

 

                         D           G                                       D

2. How's your new love,     I hope that he's doing fine.

                                                        G                                 D

    I heard you told him, that you`d love him 'til the end of time.

                                                             D7        

   Now that's the same thing, that you told me,

G                                            E

   it seems like just the other day.

                         A                A7              D  - G - D

    Gee, ain't it funny, how time slips away.

 

               D          G                                   D

3. Gotta go now,     I guess I'll see you around,

                                                             G                                     D

    I don't know when, though, never know when I'll be back in town.

                                        D7                     G                          E

    But remember, what I tell you, that in time you're gonna pay.

                        A                 A7               D  - G - D

    And it's surprising, how time slips away.
