The Hungry years
By Neil Sedaka

AGirl (x02220@1)we made it to the top
    Dm/A
We went so high we couldn't stop
      A (x02220@1)                Dm/A
We climbed the ladder leading us nowhere

C (x32010@1)     
We spun so fast we couldn't tell
      Fm/C
The gold ring from the carousel
       C (x32010@1)            Fm/C                 CHow (x32010@1)could we know the ride would turn out bad

                 C/EThe (x3111x@5)lovely long ago
C (x32010@1)               D9

                Fm(maj7)

AWe (x02220@1)shared our day dreams one by one
    Dm/A
Making plans was so much fun
      A (x02220@1)                Dm/A
We set our goals and reached the highest star

 CHere (x32010@1)we stand just me and you
         Fm/C
With everything and nothing too
      C (x32010@1)             Fm/C           CIt (x32010@1)wasn't worth the price we had to pay
