Some moments that I've had
F# C#/F
Some moments of pleasure
Ab C#/F F# C#/F
Ab C#/F
I think about us lying
F# Ab
Lying on a beach somewhere
C#add9
I think about us diving
F# C#/F Ab
Diving off a rock, into another moment
C#/Ab F# C#/F
Ab C#/F F#
The case of George the Wipe
C#/F Ab
Oh God I can't stop laughing
C#/F F#
This sense of humour of mine
C#/F Ab C#/F
It isn't funny at all
F#
Oh but we sit up all night
C#/F Absus4
Talking about it
Ab Fb
Just being alive
F# Absus4 Ab
It can really hurt
Fb
These moments given
F# Ab C#/F F# C#/F
Are a gift from time
Ab C#/Ab
On a balcony in New York
F#/Ab C#/Ab
It's just started to snow
Ab C#/Ab
He meets us at the lift
F#m
Like Douglas Fairbanks
C#/F Ab
Waving his walking stick
C#/F F# C#
But he isn't well at all
F# C#/F
The buildings of New York
Ab7sus4 C#/F F#
Look just like mountains through the snow
N.C. Fb
Just being alive
F# Absus4 Ab
It can really hurt
Fb
These moments given
F# Ab
Are a gift from time
N.C. C#/F
Just let us try
F# Ab
To give these moments back
Fb
To those we love
F# Ab C#/Ab F#/Ab C#/F
To those who will survive
Ab C#/F
And I can hear my mother saying
F# C#/F Ab C#/F
"Every old sock meets an old shoe"
F# C#/F Ab C#/F F#
Ain't that a great saying?
C#/F Ab C#/F
"Every old sock meets an old shoe"
F# C#/F
Here come the Hills of Time
Ab C#/F F# C#/F Ab

Hey there Maureen,
C#/F Ab
Hey there Bubba,
C#/F F#
Dancing down the aisle of a plane,
C#/F Ab C#/F
F# C#/F
'S Murph, playing his guitar refrain,
Ab C#/F F# C#/F Ab
C#/F F#
Hey there Teddy,
C#/F Ab
Spinning in the chair at Abbey Road,
C#/F F# C#/F Ab
C#/F F#
Hey there Michael,

Do you really love me?
Ab C#/F F# C#/F Ab
C#/F F#
Hey there Bill,
