D Em
Eº
I'm shouting all about love, while they treated you like a dog
D F#m7 Em7 Gm6 D B7 Em7
When you were the one who had made it so clear, all those years ago
D Em
Eº
I'm talking all about how to give, they don't act with much honesty
D F#m7 Em7 Gm6 D B7 Em7
But you point the way to the truth when you say, all you need is love
CHORUS #1:
A D Em A D
Living with good and bad, I always looked up to you
A D Em A7
Now we're left cold and sad, by someone the devil's best friend
D
A7/5+
Someone who offended all
Em
Eº
We're living in a bad dream, they've forgotten all about mankind
D F#m7 Em7 Gm6 D B7 Em7
And you were the one they backed up to the wall, all those years ago
D F#m7 Em7 Gm6 D B7 Em7 D
You were the one who imagined it all, all those years ago
all those years ago
D B7 Em7
(solo over) D Dm D Dm D Em Eº D F#m7 Em7 Gm6
all those years ago

CHORUS #2:
A D Em A D
Deep in the darkest night, I send out a prayer to you
A D Em A7
Now in the world of light, where the spirit free of lies
D
A7/5+
And all else that we despised
Em
Eº
They've forgotten all about God, he's the only reason we exist
D F#m7 Em7 Gm6 D B7 Em7
Yet you were the one that they said was so weird, all those years ago
D F#m7 Em7 Gm6 D B7 Em7
You said it all though not many had ears, all those years ago
D F#m7 Em7 Gm6 D B7 Em7 A D
You had control of our smiles and our tears, all those years ago-----
D Em D F#m7 Em7 Gm6 D B7 Em7

all those years
