D
Look at that old photograph
G A
Is it really you
D G A
Smiling like a baby full of dreams
D
Smiling ain't so easy now
G A
Some are comin' true
D G A
Nothing's a simple as it seems
Bm G D
But I guess you count your blessings with the problems
Bm G A
That you're dealing with today
G A D A D
Like the changing of the seasons
D G Bm
Ain't you come a long way
D G Bm
(Ain't you come a long way)
D G Bm A
Ain't you come a long way down
D
This old road
Looking at the future
Running out of time
On a face you used to know
Traces of a future lost
In between the lines
One more rainbow for the road
Thinking of the faces in the window
That you passed along the way
Or the last thing you believed in
CHORUS
SOLO
Bm G D
Say you tried to chase the sun down
Bm G A
And you let it slip away
G A D A D
And the holy night is falling
CHORUS
D G (let ring) D
Look at that old photograph, is it really you
