Intro: G

      G
Oh my dance is getting slower now
          D
'cause my years they're getting older now.
       Am                                   C
And my eyes, they won't cry. My tears have all run dry.

       G
And my memory doesn't get me very far,
           D
I can't remember my name or exactly who you are.
      Am                     C
And I don't know why, no I don't know why.

         G                          D
Will you please believe I'm not the person you see,
                  Am                           C
I left that body long ago. I left it way back there.

         G                      D
Will you please believe, given all that you see,
                 Am                      C
I left that body long ago, but somehow nobody knows.

       G                             D
So goodbye, you were my world and my life.
                  Am                                    C
And I don't know why you've lost your mother, lost your wife.

            G                                   D
But there's more, something more than meets the eye.
                Am                    C
This is not the end, this is only goodbye.

         G                           D
Will you please believe I'm not the person you see,
                  Am                           C
I left that body long ago. I left it way back there.

        G                         D
Now I'm free, I'm as happy as can be.
                     Am                         C
I just wanted you to know that I left that body long ago.
        G
So long ago.
