[Verse 1]
C                               Am
Met my old lover in a grocery store
C                                               Am
The snow was falling Christmas Eve
C                                     Am
I stole behind her in the frozen foods
          D                            F       G
And I touched her on her sleeve.

[Verse 2]
C                                     Am
She didn't recognize the face at first
C                                         Am
But then her eyes flew open wide
C                                           Am
She went to hug me and she spilled her purse
             D                        F       G
And we laughed until we cried.

[Verse 3]
C                                           Am
We took her groceries to the checkout stand
C                                            Am
The food was totaled up and bagged
C                                            Am
We stood there lost in our embarrassment
           D                    F          G
As the conversation dragged.

[Verse 4]
C                                      Am
Went to have ourselves a drink or two
C                                        Am
But couldn't find and open bar
C                                           Am
We bought a six-pack at the liquor store
             D                    F    G
And we drank it in her car.

[Chorus]
Am                          F
We drank a toast to innocence
       G                      Am 
We drank a toast to now
Am                                    F
Tried to reach beyond the emptiness
        G                         Am G
But neither one knew how.

[Verse 5]
C                                             Am
She said she'd married her an architect
C                                                 Am
Who kept her warm and safe and dry
C                                                Am
She would have liked to say she loved the man
             D                    F G
But she didn't want to lie.

[Verse 6]
C                                        Am
I said the years had been a friend to her
C                                             Am
And that her eyes were still as blue
C                                      Am
But in those eyes I wasn't sure if I
       D                     F     G
Saw doubt or grati-tude.

[Verse 7]
C                                          Am
She said she saw me in the record stores
C                                     Am
And that I must be doing well
C                                   Am
I said the audience was heavenly
            D                    F    G
But the travelling was hell.

[Chorus]
Am                            F
We drank a toast to innocence
      G                        Am
We drank a toast to now
Am                                   F
Tried to reach beyond the emptiness
        G                        Am  G
But neither one knew how.

[Chorus]
Am                           F
We drank a toast to innocence
      G                       Am 
We drank a toast to time
Am                     F
Reliving in our eloquence
      G                Am  G
An-other "auld lang syne".

[Verse 8]
C                                           Am
The beer was empty and our tongues were tired
C                                           Am
And running out of things to say
C                                  Am C* Am*
She gave a kiss to me as I got out
         D                            F     G
And I watched her drive away.

[Verse 9]
C                                   Am
Just for a moment I was back at school
C                                     Am
And felt that old familiar pain
C                                          Am  C*     Am*
And as I turned to make my way back home
       D                F              G
The snow turned into rain.
