Now, we take our time,

so non cha lant

and spend our nights

so bon vi vant.

We dress our days

in (Bb)silk en robes

The mon ey comes

the mon ey goes

we know it’s all

a (G)pass (D7)ing phase

So We light our lamps

for at mos phere

and hang our hopes

on chan de liers

We’re go ing wrong,

we’re (Bb)gain ing weight

We’re sleep ing long

and far too late

and so it’s time

to (G)change (D7)our ways

But I’ve (G6)loved (Dm)these (C)days.

Now as we in dulge

in things re fined

We hide our hearts

from hard er times.

A string of pearls,

a (Bb)for eign car

Oh we can on

ly go so far

on cav i ar

and (G)cab (D7)er net

So We drown our doubts

in dry cham pagne

and soothe our souls

with fine co caine

I don’t know why

I (Bb)e ven care

We get so high

and get no where

We’ll have to change

our (G)jad (D7)ed ways

But I’ve (G6)loved (Dm)these (C)days.

But I’ve (G6)loved (Dm)these

But I’ve (G6)loved (Dm)these (C)days.
