[Verse 1]
                    A
We passed upon the stairs
                    Dm
We spoke of was and when
                  A
Although I wasn´t there
                  F
He said I was his friend
                    C
Which came as some surprise
                 A
I spoke into his eyes
                    Dm
I thought you died alone
                     C
A long, long time ago
           F
Oh no, not me
   Bb                F
I never lost control
          C        F
You're face to face
         Bb               A
With the man who sold the world
 
[Verse 2]
                        A
I laughed and shook his hand
                  Dm
Made my way back home
                         A
I searched for form and land
                       F
For years and years, I roamed
                     C
I gazed a gazley stare
                     A
At all the millions here
                  Dm
I must have died alone
                     C
A long, long time ago
               F
Who knows, not me
  Bb                F
I never lost control
          C       F
You're face, to face
         Bb               A
With the man who sold the world

We never lost control

You're face, to face
         Bb               A
With the man who sold the world
