        C   C/B Gm  E5-/7        A4/7   A7  A7/9   A7 
The days         of  win e and  roses 
                  Dm   Dm7+          Fm7               Fdim 
Laugh and run away     like a child at play 
                        Em7    Em      Am     Am7    Dm 
Through a meadow land toward a closing door 
 D4/7        Dm7  D7/9  Dm   Bm5-/7       E7 
A door  marked  "never    more"  
      Am7    Cdim   Dm7   Fdim    G7 
That wasn't there before 
    C  C/B  Gm6  E5-/7 A4/7  A7  A7/9  A7 
The  lonely   night  discloses  
         Dm           Dm7+            Fm7        Fdim 
Just a passing breeze     filled with memories  
        Em7    Em        Am   Am7      F#m    Cdim 
Of the golden smile that introduced me to 
     Em      Em7     D7/9    G     G7/13-  C    Fm    Fdim    C 
The  day s of  win e and  roses        and  you
