{c:verse 1}
We passed upon the [A7]stair, we spoke of was and when [Dm]
Although I wasn't [A7]there, he said I was his friend [F]
Which came as some sur-[C]prise, I spoke into his [A]eyes
I thought you died a-[Dm]lone, a long, long time a-[C]go

{soc}
Oh [C]no, not [F]me, I [Bbm6]never lost con-[F]trol
You're [C]face, to [F]face
With the [Bbm6]↓man who sold the world

{c:verse 2}
I laughed and shook his [A7]hand, and made my way back home [Dm]
I searched for form and [A7]land, for years and years I roamed [F]
I gazed a gazely [C]stare, at all the millions [A]here
We must have died a-[Dm]lone, a long, long time a-[C]go
