Intro - piano

Am            Dm      Bb        C
In good old times, remember my friend,
F            Bb            Dm           C
Moon was so bright and so close to us, sometimes 

Am             Dm        Bb          C
We were still blind and deaf, what a bliss?
F            Bb           Dm           C
Painting the world of our own, for our own eyes, now?

            Bb            Dm
"Can we ever have what we had then?
Gm          Dm         C
Friendship unbreakable
            F           Bb
Love means nothing to me
         Dm          C
Without blinking an eye -
G   Gm           Dm    C
I'd fade, if so needed,
           F            Bb 
all those moments with you
      Dm            Am
If I had you beside me"

Am          Dm      Bb            C
One cloudy day, we both lost the game?
    F          Bb     Dm    C
We drifted so far and away,

Am          Dm       Bb          C
Nothing is quite as cruel as a child
F            Bb            Dm          C
Sometimes we break the unbreakable, sometimes?

                  Bb           Dm
"And we'll never have what we had then
Gm            Dm
Friendship unbroken
C           F           Bb
Love means nothing to me
         Dm          C
Without blinking an eye
G    Gm           Dm  C
I'd fade, if so needed,
          F             Bb
all those moments with you
      Dm        Am       Em ?
If I had you beside me now"

F Gm Am Bb      Am              C
I was unable to cope with what you said
F   Gm    Am Bb          Am          C
Sometimes we need to be cruel to be kind
F     Gm   Am Bb        Am          C
Child that I was, could not see the reason
F   Gm   Am Bb           Am         C
Feelings I had were but sham and a lie?


Cm Ab   Eb        Bb        Ab
I have never forgotten your smile
       Bb       Cm
Your eyes, oh, Shamandalie

Ab       Bb         Eb       Ab
Time went by, many memories died
     Fm                  Gm
I'm writing this down to ease my pain

Cm  Ab   Eb         Bb         Ab
You saw us always clearer than me
    Bb       Cm
How we were never meant to be
Ab     Bb              Eb              Ab
Love denied meant the friendship would die
    Fm               Gm
Now I have seen the light
       Fm              Gm
These memories make me cry

Bridge

            Bb          Dm
"Can I ever have what I had then
Gm            Dm    C
Friendship unbroken
            F           Bb
Love means nothing to me
         Dm         C   
Without blinking an eye
G   Gm          Dm     C
I'd fade, if so needed,
           F           Bb 
all those moments with you
             Dm            C
And see the world with my wide open eyes
Gm              Dm   C
Friendship got broken
            F          Bb
There's no other for me
         Dm              C
Like the one of my childhood days
Gm         Dm          C
Can you forgive me?
              F          Bb
the love got better off me,
                Dm       Am
on that one day back in old times"
