Did the days drCag by' Did theF favour wane' C/E G/D G
Did he roam doCwn the town all the timeF' C G
Will you wake froCm a dream, with the wFolf at the door C/E G/D G
Reaching out for VeFronica' G Csus4 C
Well it Cwas all sixty-fivFe years ago C/E G/D G
When the world was tChe street where she liFved C G
And a young maCn sailed on a ship Fin the sea C/E G/D G
With a picture oFf Veronica G Csus4 C
On the "EmpreAmss of India" Fm
And as sBbhe closed her eyes upon the world C
And pickedAm upon the bones of last week's news Fm
She spoke Bbhis name out loud again

Do you suppose, that waiting hands on eyes
VeDm7ronica has gone toG hide'

Saying "YouC can call meF anything you C/Elike G/D G
But my name is FVeronica&qGuot; Csus4 C
