A A(?)
It's a long time since I saw you last
A A(?)
So tell me how you've been
[Em]Did you ever get to [F#m]buy that yellow [Bm]coat?
A A(?)
Do the flowers in you window box
A A(?)
Still smile when you walk in?
[Em]Did you read the [F#m]letters that I [Bm]wrote?
And I've been on the road[G] since Christmas
[G]But it don't seem so long
[A]Outside of that there isn't much to [D]say.
[G]I cut down on my drinkin' some
And wrote another song[Bm] [Em]
[Em]I wish you wouldn't [F#m]look at me that [Bm]way
A A(?)
Remember all the mornings
A A(?)
We'd walk around the park
[Em]The nights we baby[F#m]sat for Billy's [Bm]kids
A A(?)
And all the times we used to talk
A A(?)
Of having one ourselves
[Em]I don't remember [F#m]why we never [Bm]did
Do the [G]neighbors still complain a bit
[G]When the music gets too loud?
[A]Does your old cat still sleep up on the [D]bed?
[G]And do you still walk around
With your head up in the clouds?[Bm] [Em]
[Em]Have you heard a [F#m]single thing I've [Bm]said?
[A]It's a two day drive to New York
[G]Guess I'd better [D]go
[Em]Have you noticed the [F#m]weather's gettin' [Bm]cold?
A A(?)
And it's a long time since I saw you last
A A(?)
Tell me how you've been
[Em]Did you ever get to [F#m]buy that yellow [Bm]coat?
[Em]Did you ever get to [F#m]buy that yellow [Bm]coat?
