                            After All This Time


By  Randy Crowell

C   |

C              |      |             |
    There were trains    And we out-run `em.

C, b,         Am    |             |
   There were songs    And we out-sung `em.

a, g,         F     |     g    |     C     |   g
   There were brigh...ter days never ending

a, b,        C    |              |
   There was time    And we were burnin'

C, b,         Am     |             |
   There were rhymes   And we were learnin'

a, g,        F   |      g    |                C    |  |  |
   There was all... the love two hearts could hold


    F              |     |  |        Em           |      |   |
And after all this time...    You're always on my mind

    F             |                  Dm                |
Hey I could never let it end  `Cause my heart takes so long to mend

g                         F             Dm                    g
The dream that keeps your hopes alive   The lonely nights you hold inside

    F              |             g            |
And after all this time   You're always on my mind

g                C    |    |
    I still want you


C             |    |            |
    There was rain   That we outlasted

C, b,        Am   |           |
   There was pain   But we go past it

a, g,         F    |       g     |              C      |   g
   There were last... good-byes... still left unspoken

a, b,         C     |               |
   There were ways... I should have thrilled you

C, b,          Am      |                 |
    There were days... when I could have killed you

a, g,          F    |   g      |             C      |   |   |
   Your're the only...  love...  my life has known


    F              |     |  |          Em           |     |    |
And after all this time...     Your're always on my mind

    F             |              Dm                |
Hey I could never let you go   A broken heart that heals so slow

g                    F             Dm                     g
Could never beat for someone new   While you're alive and I am too

    F              |             g            |
And after all this time   You're always on my mind

g                C    |   |
    I still miss you


(Instrumental)


    F             |                  Dm                |
And I could never let it in   'Cause my heart takes so long to mend

g                         F             Dm                    g
The dream that keeps your hopes alive   The lonely nights you hold inside

    F              |               g            |
And after all this time    Your're always on my mind

g               C     |   |
   I still want you

    F              |             g            |
Hey after all this time  Your're always on my mind

g                C    |   |
    I still love you.
