Ive Loved These Days
Billy Joel
Text File
C D/C G/B
Now we take our time so nonchalant
Bb6 F
And spend our nights so bon vivant
C/F Bb/F F
We dress our days in silken robes
C A/C# Dm
The money comes the money goes
D G/D D7 Gsus4 G Dm/G G C
We know it's all a passing phase
D/C G/B
We light our lamps for atmosphere
Bb6 F
And hang our hopes on chandeliers
C/F Bb/F F
We're going wrong we're gaining weight
C A/C# Dm
We're sleeping long and far too late
D G/D D7 Gsus4 G
And so it's time to change our ways
Dm/G G Dm/G C
But I've loved these days
D/C G/B
Now as we indulge in things refined
Bb6 F
We hide our hearts from harder times
C/F Bb/F F
A string of pearls a foreign car
C A/C#
Oh, we can only go so far
Dm D G/D D7 Gsus4 G Dm/G G
on caviar and Cabernet
C D/C G/B
We drown our doubts in dry champagne
Bb6 F
And soothe our souls with fine cocaine
C/F Bb/F F
I don't know why I even care
C A/C# Dm
We get so high and get nowhere
D G/D D7 Gsus4 G
We'll have to change our jad-ed ways
Dm/G G Dm/G C
But I've loved these days
[Instrumental] - Same as Verses 1, 3 & 5
D/C G/B
So before we end and then begin
Bb6 F
We'll drink a toast to how it's been
C/F Bb/F F
A few more hours to be complete
C A/C# Dm
A few more nights on satin sheets
D G/D D7 Gsus4 G
A few more times that I can say
I've loved these days
