INTRO: D  G  D  A

D                            G            D
Look at that old photograph, is it really you
               G            D
Smilin' like a baby full of dreams
                           G               D
Smilin' ain't so easy now, some are comin' true
G                     A
Nothin's simple as it seems

      Bm                   G                  D       D/F#
But I guess you count your blessin's with the problem
Bm                       A7
That you're dealin' with today
G                        D       G   D  A
Like the changin' of the seasons


CHORUS:
D                          G
Ain't you come a long way (ain't you come a long way)
D                         A    (G)      D
Ain't you come a long way down this old road

D                           G              D
Lookin' at a lookin' glass, runnin' out of time
       G                D
On the face you used to know
                        G              D
Traces of a future lost in between the lines
G                        A
One more rainbow for the road

Bm              G            D       D/F#
Thinkin' of the faces in the windows
Bm                        A7
That you passed along the way
G                      D          G   D  A
Or the last thing you believed in


CHORUS


SOLO

Bm      G                  D       D/F#
Say you tried to chase the sundown
Bm                  A7
And you let it slip away
G                     D      G   D  A
And the holy night is fallin'


CHORUS

D                            G            D
Look at that old photograph, is it really you
