C5                   G5                  C5
When the night returns just like a friend.......
F5                 G5                C5
When the evening comes to set me free............
F5           G5
When the quiet hours that wait........

A5     E5   F5   C5    F5
Beyond the day make ..............
         D5        G5     G5  G5
Peaceful sounds in me ...................


C5                   G5             C5
Took a drag from my last cigarrette ........
F5                   G5                 C5
Took a drink from a glass of old red wine.......
F5            G5
I closed my eyes and I could ......
A5   E5  F5   C5
Make it real and
F5       D5          G5
Feel it one more time  ........

CHORUS:

A5
Can You hear it Babe?.........(Riff1)
G5
Can you hear it Babe?.........(Riff2)
      F5                    C5
From  another Time    From another place
         G5               G5       G5
Can you remember it Babe?

C5                                    D5
And the radio played like a carnival tune
                                  C5
As we lay in our bed in the other room
                                        F5
When we gave it away for the sake of a dream
F5
In a penny arcade...................
                     C5          D5 *    D5       C5
If you know what I mean...................If you know what I mean Babe...



C5    F5     C5
..........................................
C5             G5               C5        C5
Heres to the songs we used to sing........
F5                  G5              C5       C5
and heres to the times we used to know...........
F5              G5
Its hard to hold them
        A5   E5 F5 C5    F5
In our arms again but
F5           D5    G5
Hard to let them go.
A5
Do You hear it Babe?.........(Riff1)
G5
Do you hear it Babe?.........(Riff2)
      F5                    C5
It was another Time    It was another place
         G5               G5       G5  G5 G5 G5 G5
Do you remember it Babe?

Repeat Chorus.


C5                                    D5
And the radio played like a carnival tune
                                  C5
As we lay in our bed in the other room
                                        F5
When we gave it away for the sake of a dream
F5
In a penny arcade...................
                     C5          D5 *    D5       C5
