A          D          Bm      E

We would meet after all these years
A          D        Bm         E


I can imagine the thrill of it
A      G#          C#m

For I still think of all our dreams and tears
      B7                      E 

I see flowers and candlelight
D      G#m          C#m   F#m

And a tablecloth checked in red
      Bm         E           A

And we sit holding hands
        A           D

In our own small world
        C#m G#m  F#m

And never a word is said
 Bm                  E

For we so often pine for the old love
           A    D          
   
Kind, tender and true
D                E

Often pine for the old love
A     D                 Bm

Rather than find the new
Bm          D     E  Av


Riff:

 A, D, E 

Now's the moment that I have dreamed of
A          D          Bm      E

Here we are on the fateful day
A          D        Bm         E

Hand in hand
A       G#

Not a word is said
      C#m     F#m

For we haven't got a thing to say
       B                      E

Here we sit in the candlelight
D       G#m         C#m   F#m

Waiting for the thrill to start
 Bm         E           A

With the red checked tablecloth between us
         A           D          F#m

We're twenty million miles apart
       Bm                   E



Oh you should never pine for the old love
Kind, tender and true
Never pine for the old love
Go out and find the new

Hey hey hey
A        D

But the world keeps turning
         Bm         E

Here is something the evening showed
A       D             Bm      E

You go away and you grow away
    A  G#            C#m  F#m

And you travel a separate road
        B                  E

You take a dream just to keep you warm
    D      G#m           C#m      F#m

As milestones pass you by
    Bm        E        A

But you are a different person 
    A          D        F#m

And surprisingly so am I 
     B                 E

So you should never pine for the old love
Kind, tender and true
Never pine for the old love
Go out and find the new.
