	C	Am	G	C	Am	G
	Met my old lover in a	grocery store		The snow was falling Christmas	Eve

	C	Am	D7	F	G
	Stole behind her in the	frozen foods and I	touched her on the	sleeve

	C	Am	G	C	Am	G
	She didn't recognize the	face at first		but then her eyes flew open	wide

	C	Am	D7	F	G
	Tried to hug me and she	spilled her purse and we	laughed until we	cried

piano break - same chords as verse

	C	Am	G	C	Am	G
	Took her groceries to the	checkout stand		The food was totaled up and	bagged

	C	Am	D7	F	G
	stood there lost in our em	barrassment as the	conversation	dragged

	C	Am	C	Am
	Went to have ourselves a	drink or two	but couldn't find an open	bar

	C	Am	D7	F	G
	Bought a six-pack at the	liquor store and we	drank it in the	car

	Am	F	G	Am
	We drank a toast to	innocence, we	drank a toast to	now

	Am	F	G
	Tried to reach beyond the	emptiness but	neither one knew how

	C	Am	G	C	Am	G
	She said she'd married her an	architect		Kept her warm and safe and	dry

	C	Am	D7	F	G
	She said she'd like to say she	loved the man but she	didn't want to	lie

	C	Am	G	C	Am	G
	I said the years had been a	friend to her		and that her eyes were still as	blue

	C	Am	D7	F	G
	But in those eyes I wasn't	sure if I saw	doubt or grati	tude

	C	Am	G	C	Am	G
	She said she saw me in the	record store		and that I must be doing	well

	C	Am	D7	F	G
	I said the audience was	heavenly but the	traveling was	hell

chorus

	Am	F	G	Am
	We drank a toast to	innocence we	drank a toast to	time

	Am	F	G
	We're living in our	eloquence,	another old lang syne

	C	Am	G	C	Am	G
	The beers were empty and our	tongues grew tired		and running out of things to	say

	C	Am	D7	F	G
	She gave a kiss to me as I got	out and I	watched her drive a	way

	C	Am	G	C	Am	G
	Just for a moment I was	back in school		And felt that old familiar	pain

	C	Am	D7	F	D	F	D
	And as I turned to make my way back	home the	snow turned into	rain
