[Intro]

D# Em D# D

[Verse 1]
D                     G D
When I was 17
                          Em
I saw a magazine
                     D#              D
It had those English Boys
                             G D
Who had long hair
                     G                 D
When I was on my own
                            G
They moved into my town
                 Em                 D
And I just called them up
                               G
And they'd be there

G          D
In 1969
                               Em
I had a lousy time
                    D#                D
I listened to the songs
                     G                 D
Read letters sent from Nam

D                      G                     D
Now peace and love were gone
              G
The tired soldiers home
          Em D
Ideal society
                             G
Gunned down the 70s

           C                              D
Does it feel the same to you?
                   C                    D
Why do you act the way you do?
           C                       D
Pack it up or pack it in
                           Em
There's no excuse

[Chorus]
                  C                           D
Could the hands of time reverse?
                  C                         D
Would we wake or take the ride
        C                                    D
And again speak with one voice?

D# Em D# Em D# D

[Verse 2]
D                     G          D
We knew each other well
                     Em
Although we never met
                    D#             D
Messages passed to tell
                         G D
Equal respect

D                            G   D
Coincidence recurred
                   G
I had to laugh a lot
                  Em                D
One week hung up superb
                          G
Said maybe not
