Song of Long Ago 
Carole King (from the Music Album 1971)
Intro  (Carole King Piano)
A11 A11 A11 A11 A11 Dsus4 D D  A11 A11 A11 A11 A11 E13 E11 E11 E11
A                           E
Whispering wind came, uninvited
F#m7                     C#m7
Looking for somewhere else to go
   D                       A/C# 
Here is a lamp I've left unlighted
Bm7             E11           E
Aren't you someone I should know
A11                       D
Memory's flame is soon ignited
A11                       D     A/C#
Lighting my lamp with amber glow
Bm7                     A
Quietly, friends are reunited
Bm7         E11         A
Singing a song of long ago, 
F#m7  C#m7   Bm7  E11  A  E/G# F#m7  A/E Bm7  E11 A
la, la, la la la la la la la etc

Bridge
A11             A
Cry, cry for someone 
A11                A
Who just can't be happy
     F#m7   A/E      D  A/C#   Bm7   E11  E
And be glad you can feel enough to cry
Verse 2  
A                         E
Younger than always, time descended
F#m7                          C#m7
Bringing me brand new seeds to sow
D                          A/C# 
Now that they've been a long time planted
Bm7              E11            E
What must I do to help them grow
A11                    D
If it had been as I intended
A 11                     D       A/C#
I wouldn't have the peace I know
Bm7                       A
Loving the people I've befriended
Bm7                 E11     A
And singing a song of long ago, 
F#m7  C#m7   Bm7  E11  A  E/G# F#m7  A/E Bm7  E11 A
la, la, la la la la la la la etc
 D                 A/C#
As it began, so I will end it
Bm7                E11  E
Singing a song of long ago
D                        A/C#
Loving the people I've befriended
Bm7                  E11     E7         A
And singing a song of long, long, long ago
Outro  (James Taylor Acoustic)
